可爱的加拿大姑娘超激动中国游：第二天：历史冰冷的脚趾

There were thousands of people here, and everyone was with a tour group, all moving in little flocks through the vast expanse of the square. If you turned your back on your group to take a picture, you had to be careful that when you turned back you were still with the right people, as it was so easy to get swept up with another group and before you knew it you were on the bus with a bunch of Israeli tourists.
这里有成千上万的人，每个人都跟着一个旅游团，大家在巨大的广场上分成一小撮一小撮，慢慢地挪动着。如果你转过身拍照，背对你的旅游团，那你再回过身的时候就一定要小心确认是不是还和自己人在一起，因为稍不注意就会跟错团，否则等你回到旅游巴士上，看到一车陌生的以色列游客，你才会惊觉自己走散了。

The square itself is pretty plain, a big white expanse of concrete with some cool statues on one side, the Mao’s portrait-clad entrance to the Forbidden City on another, and the giant queue to see the refridgerated body of Mao on the other. The lines were too long, we missed him on this trip, but I’ll get it next time…
天安门广场本身漂亮平整，白茫茫一大片，用混凝土浇筑，一侧有许多很酷的雕像，另一侧是挂着毛主席肖像画的紫禁城入口，还有一侧是毛主席纪念堂，人们排着长长的队伍等待瞻仰毛主席遗容。这条队伍实在太长长长了，我们这次旅行只能错过他了，但是我下次一定不会错过的……

We found out after the fact that there are a lot of plain clothed securirt patroling the square and the Forbidden City, but you’d never know it, it feels so open and friendly. Got some great pictures, the cloudless blue sky made everything look spectacular, but once again it was really cold and windy, so we spent a lot of time huddling together and trying not to die.
我们发现，在天安门广场和紫禁城其实有许多便衣警察在秘密巡逻，只是你可能永远不会知道，这让人感觉非常开放和友好。我们拍摄了一些很棒的照片，澄澈如洗的蓝天使一切看起来都很宏伟壮观，但我不得不再提一次，这里真的好冷啊，寒风刺骨，我们大部分时间都挤在一起取暖，以免自己被冻死。
