2012-05-01来源:龙腾网

After a giant breakfast at the typical Asian “everything you could possibly imagine – fish and pizza and congee and Cocoa Pops” hotel buffet (they always have Cocoa Pops. Every country I’ve ever been in. Go figure. For this sole reason they have become my strange vacation obsession), we loaded our gloved and scarfed selves into the minibus and headed for Tianamen Square.
我们吃了一顿丰盛的早餐,典型亚洲特色(所有东西你都可以想象得出——鱼肉、披萨、白粥、和谐麦片粥)的酒店自助(他们总是提供和谐麦片粥,每一个我去过的国家都这样。你可以自己琢磨下,看是不是这么回事。因为这个原因,他们已经成为我奇怪的旅游强迫症),我们戴上手套,把自己塞进迷你巴士,然后朝天安门广场进发。

Our adorable guide Jimmy – if keeping him in our luggage had been an option, we would have kept him throughout the whole tour – paraded us around carrying a bright red fabric fish on a telescoping pole, which, despite the fact it looked ridiculous, was amazingly easy to see in a forest of tour groups whose leaders were all carrying identical flags.
我们可爱的导游吉米——如果在吉米和行李之间二选一,我们肯定会毫不犹豫地选择吉米,整个旅行中,宁要吉米不要行李——在我们面前挥舞着一面有伸缩杆的醒目的红色鱼尾旗,这看上去确实滑稽可笑,不过令人惊奇的是,你很容易发现自己置身于旅游团旗帜的森林,所有导游几乎都拿着一面差不多的旗子。
