Visiting a Taipei Taoyuan Airport viewing cafe/台北桃園空港の展望カフェ訪問記

In the evening, I visited to the Enjoy Plane (第三航廈 in Chinese) Taipei Taoyuan International Airport viewing cafe. This cafe is located nearby the airport runway 05R.
夕方には台北桃園国際空港の滑走路05Rのすぐそばにある第三航廈という展望カフェに行ってきました。
After getting off the bus at Haifeng, then going back to the direction of the airport at about 50 meters and cross the pedestrian crossing, there is an alley to the right. A signboard is standing at the entrance, so it's easy way to go there. Since there's no bus service from the airport, it's the best way to take a taxi.
海豊でバスを降りて空港方面へ約50mほど引き返して横断歩道を渡ると右手に路地があります。そこには看板が立っているので分かると思います。ちなみに空港からバスの便はありませんのでタクシーを使うが賢明でしょう。
There is a cashier immediately after the door. I ordered iced mocha. Menu is written in Chinese only. However the staff speak enough English, it's very helpful for me. After that I went upstairs to take a rest. It's a rainy Saturday night, but there was packed with some plane enthusiasts. Here, you'll see some aircraft models inside. Next to the lounge, there's a terrace equipped with tables and chairs. It's a great place to watch many planes take off while eating and drinking.
中に入るとすぐにレジがあってアイスモカを注文。メニューは中国語のみでしたが店員さんたちが英語で話しかけてきてくれてとても助かりました。その後2階にあるラウンジへ。雨の土曜日だったにもかかわらず大勢の飛行機ファンたちで賑わっていました。そこには飛行機モデルが置いていてすぐ横のテラスにはテーブルと椅子が備え付けてあって飲みながら離発着する飛行機を見ることができる絶好の場所です。
I was enjoy watching planes at the terrace for a while. Suddenly it started rain, I went back immediately. Because of the rain, I couldn't see planes take off from Rwy 23L anymore. The time is already 10, so that I had decided to go back to hotel by taxi. Luckily, I found a taxi stopped there. I ask a driver to go to the hotel, but he's from Taipei. He doesn't really know where it is. He picked me up until a gas station on the way, therefore I have to walk to Dayuan, the nearest place to take another taxi to hotel.
しばらくテラスで飛行機を見ていたのですが急に雨が降り出してきてすぐに戻りました。天気のせいか23Lから飛び立つ飛行機が見られなくなってしまいだんだんと退屈になってきて10時ごろにはそこに停まっていたタクシーでホテルへ戻ろうと思っていたのですが運転士さんが台北市の方だったので地理がよくわからずに途中のガソリンスタンドで降ろされてしまい結果的には近くの大園まで歩いてしばらくしてからようやくタクシーを拾えてホテルへ。
