Thank You Steve Nov 21, 2007

我还是搞不清楚,看来要啃几本植物学的书才能明白。 今天正好是五月花登陆的日子,我再登几张以前拍摄的。顺祝你和乐音,PK兄诸位感恩节快乐!

From Boston to San Francisco Nov 21, 2007

天尽头,美国大陆东部麻省的“鳕鱼岬”,是当年五月花登陆的地方,时在1620年11月21日。

1.Provincetown, Cape Cod, MA

This is where it all started. The "Mayflower" landed here on November 21,1620. Sticking out like an arm into the Atlantic, Cape Cod marks the eastern end of the US continent.


当年五月花登陆的地方原来只是一片藻泽,这儿的一股清泉却救活了这帮已在海上漂浮了两个多月的英国清教徒。

2.Pilgrim Landing,Cape Cod, MA

This is where the Mayflower touched shore, a grassy swamp on the very tip of Cape Cod, where the exhausted and thirsty passengers (about a hundred of them) got their first drink of fresh water from the new continent after drifting on the Atlantic Ocean for 66 days. They later moved to anchor at Plymouth, MA and settled there.

Here is more about the Mayflower:

David, Nov 21, 2007

Thank you! I must say these photos are wonderful although Lewinsky was not shown.

You have a great Thanksgiving, too!

BTW, the turkeys pardoned by the President Bush in the White House today are named "May" and "Flower". Bush says they’re certainly better than the names the Vice President suggested, which were "Lunch" and "Dinner."

玫瑰? 月季? 蔷薇? Nov 22, 2007

明年夏天當你來Boston時,PK會帶幾個在職場工作的Interns給你一起去研究,不過,到時眼花繚亂,將無暇去理會誰是玫瑰、月季與蔷薇了。DAVID如有意來波士頓教漢語,Master+65credits 年薪是$83,000,再做點翻譯,起碼有10萬。最近,替香港一師妹做介紹人,教小學生漢語,拿近7萬年薪,她說有點意外,我說漢語熱,有經驗、有教師執照的還是非常缺乏的,機會還多著。查理士河上有... See more
明年夏天當你來Boston時,PK會帶幾個在職場工作的Interns給你一起去研究,不過,到時眼花繚亂,將無暇去理會誰是玫瑰、月季與蔷薇了。DAVID如有意來波士頓教漢語,Master+65credits 年薪是$83,000,再做點翻譯,起碼有10萬。最近,替香港一師妹做介紹人,教小學生漢語,拿近7萬年薪,她說有點意外,我說漢語熱,有經驗、有教師執照的還是非常缺乏的,機會還多著。查理士河上有兩條橋,一是BU(Boston University)Bridge, 另外一條是Longfellow Bridge。有人說,波士頓大學如在河的另一邊,身價便不同了,因為會同MIT、哈佛一起平起平坐了。電影魂斷藍橋,Waterloo Bridge是在Long Fellow Bridge取景做『橋替』。波士頓就是『典雅』兩個字,移民前,告訴香港的朋友PK會去波士頓定居,他們說PK一定會後悔,現在想想,20多年前的決定並沒有錯,David應該會是同意的。 要感謝誰,不知道。祝壇友感恩節快樂!

Those were your nice days Feb 24, 2008

My mom and dad took us on a trip to Niagara Falls when we were kids. I remember walking out on the cantilevered platform wearing the park-provided raincoat and getting blown all over with water.

Never visited again after coming back to the U. S.

是啊. 美好的回忆当然也不少. 但时代背景无疑是主宰人生大部分经历的. 现在国内生活一定是幸福多了



The scenery let you recall your nice days together with your dear mom and dad, the feeling just like my dad remember his childhood with his beloved mom (a graduate of Jinan Univ.), a knowleable lady in his heart even in his life, and dad (a graduate of Yanjin Univ., now Peking Univ.), you went to repair the Earth in 1960's and 1970's while my dad joined the Chinese People's Volunteer Army in 1950's fortunately did not fight in N. K.

Wuwu...

心想... Feb 24, 2008

趁还在美国, 就把近的地方给逛一逛(虽然后来发现从欧洲飞去墨西哥也不比这里出发近多少,嘻嘻).不过Caribbean海+玛雅古迹还真的值得一游的.
心里很想去的下一个地方开销会比较大.等我存够钱+狠下心了再汇报一下.

随便贴几张就这么棒? Nov 10, 2009

Pei Ling,

自从你11月2日“随便贴几张”以来,我一直看不到你的杰作。今天企图回贴时总算才见庐山真面目。 不知是否是因为你的照片尺寸太大,不能正常显示,还是我的计算机有问题?

你的“住家附近”可真是世外桃源!;)

初贴时是看不见 Nov 10, 2009

连接有点问题,不过我在贴后10分钟之内改过来了.
"随便"的意思是我懒得处理,照片是大了.
其实还有更多照片还在照相机里.... 我有时在街上走着走着就会想说啊,现在有部照相机多好啊.例如今天下了一场大雨之后,教堂上的青苔格外的青,漂亮极了.

有意思 Nov 10, 2009

刚才跑去看了两位德国人以单车旅游世界的片子,用了四年的时间.真是让我佩服.不过那样的旅游方法太辛苦了,我还是挺满足于现在的方法.
