A trip to Hehuan Mountain My girlfriend and I have looked for an excursion to Hehuan Mountain Forest Recreation Area for long times. The trip came true on this Wednesday. To get up earlier around 5am was the first challenge for us. The sleepiness disappeared as soon as we drove under such a perfect weather. I like to wake up early with a sufficient sleep last night. I can feel all the sensation with a sharp mind. The sunshine, the fresh air, the sounds of the forest all came together in a row. What a joyful morning! There is a list of the 100 iconic peaks soaring over 3,000 meters in Taiwan. There is one easiest hiking trail in this area, called "Shimenshan Trail". We regard this trip as the beginning of our goal to get the foot in the door of mountain hiking. Though Shimenshan Trail is the easiest one, I took rest for dozens of times to catch the breath and alleviate the mountain sickness. I almost exhausted when we reached the peak. I can't wait kicking back and relax. Taking the challenge in the daily grind is a good way to self-motivation. Although our bodies are tired, our minds are fulfilled.

to look forward to -- means "to anticipate (something pleasant)". This is often used in business letters -- "I look forward to speaking to you soon." or a similar sentence would be part of the letter closing.

after a good night's sleep -- an idiom for having slept well the previous night

to get a foot in the door -- to start (something)


I think the following are just idiomatic, I don't know why sentences some need "for" and some don't. I think you need "for" when the time is more specific.

I had to rest for ten minutes.

I had to rest dozens of times.

I had to rest for some minutes.

I had to rest a lot.

Great! Spring is the good season to take some pleasant excursions with friends or family.
