最近整理以前的analog 照片, 发现有些值得扫描, 然后放到网志里, 供自我消遣, 还有去欧洲的照片, 集成一册放到我的Gallery 里了.

还是塔岛最好

终于活着回来啦。到头来， 还是家里舒服。我今后要好好活着。虽然我的生命比起宇宙来极其渺小， 但是我也有权力生活，就象一个小猪，小松鼠，小蚂蚁。。。

我们竟然来到了Yellowstone Natinal Park

经过长途跋涉(驾车, 住店, 野营, 远足...), 从加拿大南下穿过 西部大平原 Montana 到了 Wyoming 的 Yellowstone Natinal Park. 这是远古时代的火山口, 至少爆发过三次. 有无数温泉, 间歇泉 (Geysers) , 峡谷和瀑布. 到处冒蒸汽, 有的喷泉长久喷水, 有的定时喷射,  都是滚开的水, 还有的地方是泥塘不断冒泡...大峡谷深不可测, 岩石不断消融变得奇形怪状, 无数瀑布悬挂山中...我从未见过如此奇景. 参观的人来自全世界. 正赶这里的劳动节, 加上当地旅游者, 真的很拥挤哩...

我们亲眼还看到许多野生动物: wolves, black bears, elk, Bison, squirrels, geese...

终于到了加拿大

我们在旧金山玩了七天, 那里的日本餐厅好便宜. 然后开车沿着美国西海岸,  向西雅图进发. 白天开车, 晚上野营, 一共开了三天. 西海岸的风景无比壮观. 彼得是个好司机, 我不敢在美国开车, 只能阅地图. Google Map 和 MapQuest 非常有用, 靠着它们的指引, 我们很容易地找到了住在西雅图的侄儿和他美丽的公主.

侄儿把我的笔记本电脑装好了, 我又能写中文啦...在西雅图和两个孩子度过了两天的快乐时光. 现在我们和我们的奥迪一起乘船来到温哥华岛上的维多利亚市, 它是加拿大 BC州的首府, 和我们的塔岛很相象. 我们住在一个 Flat里, 有厨房, 洗澡间, 洗衣机...真方便. 我们可以自己做饭了.

We bought a Car...

It is so expensive to hire a car for a couple months here, so we decided to buy a car. Luckily we got one. It is an Audi, A4, 1998. Nice car, safe. We wish we were able to bring it back to Australia. San Francisco is a city of fire escape designs, ansd very large fire hydrants. All the older apartment buildings seem to lavish their architectural credentials on how predominant their fire escape is. That said, most of the  inner city apartments were built after the 1906 earthquake and fires, and regulations no doubt were instigated to minimise future havoc and death.  

21 July 2006 New Film Superman Returns

Superman Returns is getting too sentimantal, but I did enjoy the special effects and was looking forward to watching the son of superman.

It's nice & cool in San Francisco

The temperature was 19 C when we landed at 2 pm in San Francisco. It is a beautiful city and our hotel provides free wireless internet connection. But I caught cold, got blocked nose, sore throat, bad cough...Otherwise every thing is perfect here. Tonight we might try a Japanese restaurant and go to a theatre to watch Superman Returns.

还没有拿定主意...也许太辛苦了...

• 巴西和阿根廷之间的 Iguazu 大瀑布(比 Niagara 瀑布还要大得多).
• 秘鲁的 Machu Picchu (one of new 7 wonders, 可以雇驴驼东西爬山, 海拔5000米).
• 印度的 Taj Mahal (one of new 7 wonders, 建于17世纪的大理石宫殿).
