今次呢個trip都算係適逢其會，正因為day一月底要去Las Vegas工幹四日，咁就不如趁飛開過去就留低玩幾日咯~我又好好彩攞到annual leave喎，可以頭尾去到美國西岸九日呀~因為經San Francisco飛Las Vegas，所以我哋個trip o既行程就係咁喇：

day 1 香港 -> Las Vegas
day 2 Grand Canyon day trip
day 3 Las Vegas city
day 4 Las Vegas -> San Francisco -> Oakland + NBA球賽
day 5 San Francisco city
day 6 San Francisco -> Muir Woods by 康熊貓珊珊
day 7 Carmel by-the-sea by 康熊貓珊珊
day 8-9 Las Vegas -> 香港

day一月二十九號已經出發lu，所以11個鐘頭o既機程要自己一個人搭咯~

呢架就係我將要坐o既United Airlines班機了﹗check-in前day同事幫我訂機票時已經劃好位了，所以非常好地有路口位坐，不過坐係內地旅行團中間添… 閱讀全文 →

尋日冇可能唔skip一日o既diary，食完早餐，執好行李就出發去機場啦~雖然係下晝一點半o既機，但又要早D去到，JFK機場又比較遠，都係穩陣D好~之前o個晚其實都要好晏先可以正式咁訓覺，因為六姨同佢D friend BBQ完之後，入o左屋熱烈地唱K，然後呢…唔…唱得呢…呢個…比較…其實呀…有D難聽咁o羅~

關o左房門，遠在二樓，都仍然聽得清清楚楚，真係oh no~

結果十一點就早lu，我班機已經開始check-in，排隊輪到我，哎吔，點知遇著個新手，動作極慢，枱面成叠貓紙都搞唔掂，俾少張boarding pass我，行李張貼紙又冇double check，我成功番到o黎、行李又冇寄失都算偷笑﹗

因為個staff冇問我o既緣故，佢俾o左一個最差o既中間位我﹗又冇得靠窗、可以挨下，又冇得靠走廊、出入方便D，坐係中間，挨左又唔係，挨右又唔係，結果十四個鐘都訓得唔好，可能只係訓o左兩三個鐘，其餘時間怒睇戲，睇o左三套﹗大韓航空有樣好喎，唔單止有自己o既獨立電視仔，而且睇戲係自己按掣開始，唔駛限時限刻，要行開一陣又可以停o左佢先喎~我睇o左「賊壇新人王」(占基利過年時o個套笑片，講兩公婆原本生活冇憂，但佢俾個老細「冼」o左一鑊，變得非常貧困，盛怒之下就做o左賊﹗)、「failure to launch」(講有個35歲o既王老五死都要黐住阿爸阿媽住，屋企好好服侍，遇著有女友對佢認真起o黎就飛o左佢，佢父母就請o左個專家o黎幫佢，點知兩人產生真感情~<–好似好老土咁啊可？

但都幾好睇、幾搞笑~)同埋「aquamarine」(中文叫做美人魚之戀，講有條美人魚被逼婚，佢深信係人類o既世界可以搵到真正o既愛情，就o黎o左呢度，接近一個萬人迷，與此同時，結識o左兩個知心好友~<–好睇呀，好感動，但感覺有少少似細路仔戲o羅~)~

其餘時間係咁係度打機，雖然飛機上o個D都只係D無聊game，好似新接龍、踩地雷之類，但都總算消磨時間啦~

聽爸o既意見，係機場買o左本英文小說，都唔錯喎~原來睇英文小說都唔會太過唔明(因為呢D係俾D真正o既成年人睇，唔係以前D ERS會就住我o地o既程度o黎寫，所以都有D擔心D英文會唔明~)o既~但上o左機之後睇小說好似太費神lu，所以都放低o左~

14個鐘真係好難捱，但都總算捱過o左，但之後仲有三個半鐘由首爾轉飛番香港，真係oh no~係機場刷牙洗面，成個人都舒服o左好多~

第二程飛機訓得好好呀，個位又舒服D，我個人又累D，簡直驚自己唔識起身食飯(如果唔係就蝕了﹗

)~我於是貼o左張佢o地提供o既貼紙，寫住「wake me up for meals」，咁就唔怕啦~老實講，大韓航空D飛機餐確係唔錯﹗

但最終我都冇試過韓式呢，次次都係食o左西式~韓式好似都係唔係好o岩胃口，唔敢試~

番到香港lu，實在太太太太高興了﹗

早到o左差唔多半個鐘﹗但姐同day都到了﹗可惜錯失了最美麗動人o既接機時刻，擁抱o個一幕失去了﹗因為佢o地兩個見唔到出o黎﹗換o黎o既係，我拖住我三件重重o既行李，係個接機大堂附近走o黎走去搵佢o地出o黎﹗

電話又冇電到開唔到機，唯有靠最原始o既一對腳去搵﹗終於搵到啦，爸媽先o岩o岩泊好車~我o地直情叫佢o地唔好過o黎lu，最後連停車場錢都慳番(因為短時間之內離開)~

番到屋企，派派手信，洗洗衫，食食糖水，實在太開心了﹗

16日o既旅程真係夠晒數啦~

DAY 14 @ USA

我而家好悶呀~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

等天黑、等眼訓…有排等…

今日其實真係乜都冇做過，尋晚搭o左夜機由oakland番番o黎new york，搭o左4個鐘之後係chicago轉機~因為係夜晚嘛，我都訓得著，其實係oakland o既候機室等上機已經等到昏昏欲睡﹗

一上機都未起飛已經攬住個枕頭訓著o左~佢直情好快就熄晒燈添~唔知係咪因為諗住大家都訓覺，第一程飛機連飲品都冇派(其實我都唔係好sure o架，或者係有派，不過佢見我訓o左所以冇嗌醒我？﹗

)﹗第一程降落時都幾辛苦，耳仔好痛，今次旅行咁多程飛機都未試過咁，唯有谷D「喊露」o黎打啦~

去到chicago好快就搵到閘口，要等成個鐘先再上機，但我o既手提行李(一個背囊加一袋手挽袋)又重，都費事行o黎行去，o個陣時間又早，好多機場舖 頭都未開，想逛都冇得逛，於時咪坐係度享用康皓珊為我入盒o既加洲水果o羅~係尋日係farmers’ market買o既blueberry、raspberry同埋strawberry﹗仲係好好味呀~

再上機又飛快地訓著了﹗訓醒飲o左杯橙汁，又訓過，好快就到啦~兩班機都唔滿，我旁邊都有空位，可以坐得好舒適~

班機早o左到，行李又超快咁出o左o黎喎~所以都等o左六姨一陣，但佢最終都好順利咁接到竹找番去~

因為係飛機度訓得又少(因為時差o既原故，我抵達時間係九點幾，但係我o既生理時鐘，即加洲時間，其實只六點幾﹗)、中間又斷開，睡眠質素又唔理想，所以我超眼訓﹗

一番到六姨度就倒頭大睡﹗訓到食lunch(其實都一點幾兩點lu~)﹗食完叉燒米粉就上下網啦，玩o左陣寵物連連看，之後又超級累，番房又再次倒下了﹗一訓又兩個幾鐘﹗

今日六姨D朋友o黎佢o地屋企燒o野食，但我都唔係好想social social，同D唔識o既人講D不著邊際o既o野，所以我食完就番番上樓lu~

六姨好搞笑，佢唔單止醃好D肉，仲將D肉預先煮到八成熟，咁燒起上o黎就超快熟，好快就有得食啦(佢o地係美國燒o野食唔係我o地咁樣用個叉o黎燒，而係放係個網上面，所以只有一個人係度燒，其他人等食﹗)~

我番入屋時幾誇張，六姨要打電話入屋叫我表弟開門俾我，因為佢封鎖o左全屋o既門口(燒o野食係花園進行)，原因係有個朋友帶o左個超百厭o既仔o黎，要防止佢係屋大肆破壞(聽聞個細路會係廚房拎把刀o黎劃破梳化椅﹗

好恐怖啊﹗)﹗

我而家冇o野做呀，打埋diary，可能寫D postcard(自從最初係聯合國寄過o個兩張之後就冇啦~)啦，部電腦會卡住，恐怕玩唔到胡連連lu，我都唔知呀，總之我知道自己唔會咁快眼訓啦，真係oh no~

DAY 13 @ USA

好o野~今日又可以打中文lu，因為有得用康露明部電腦﹗今日其實未一切結束o架，但因為陣間就上飛機lu，所以要打o左先，我坐overnight o既飛機番去new york，跟住星期二就再經首爾飛番香港﹗好掛住爸媽姐同day，仲有其他朋友仔呀﹗16日咁長o既旅程(竟然)差唔多完啦﹗

今日o既行程唔係太多~上晝番o左教會，佢o地個崇拜又唔係太傳統o個種，詩歌敬拜–>聖餐–>講道–>奉獻–>報告–>祝福，就係咁咋~跟住我o地去o左farmers’ market﹗

好熱鬧呀﹗好多攤檔擺滿o左條街，大部份賣o既都係D農夫親自拎o黎o既新鮮蔬菜水果，有好多仲係organic(所以好貴﹗)添，我o地都買o左士多啤梨﹗佢o地俾人試食好闊綽o架，士多啤梨會有成半粒﹗其餘賣o既仲有芝士、蜜糖、bakery、首飾、果汁之類…

首先係個門口影一影先~睇到個大概﹗呀，我件tee係新o架，尋日係rainforest cafe間shop度買，係隻呱﹗好靚啊~

買o左個水果撻o黎食﹗超好味啊﹗上面堆滿了新鮮o既berries(康皓珊不斷堆我食o野﹗哇﹗)~

係咪超靚超大粒o既士多啤梨呢~好甜o架~我o地買o左兩個膠籃o既份量，比香港平好多﹗仲要係organic﹗

仲有好多靚靚o既蔬菜﹗圓碌碌o個D係圓版翠玉瓜﹗

之後番o左屋企煲一煲湯先~早兩日買o左個粉葛，話要煲湯，點知日日都早出晚歸，太辛苦啦，都未煲，如果今日再唔煲就冇我份飲lu~

再出去食lunch，終於去o左康皓珊介紹o既超好味漢堡飽店in and out度食﹗

in and out主張健康o既食物，所有材料都冇冷藏過，漢堡用新鮮牛肉o黎做，薯條都係用新鮮薯仔切成，好好味呀~佢個menu就只有三款飽，普通hamburger、cheeseburger同埋double double (其實即係兩層o既cheeseburger)，三款飽就維持到生意，勁﹗我就咁要hamburger咋，因為驚D cheese會遮住D牛肉o既味﹗

之後就開始shopping之旅lu，因為就快係美國國慶，所以周圍都on sale﹗買o左少少咁多啦~

番來就食康皓珊o既住家飯(其實係烏冬﹗)，仲有老火湯呀，食o左兩件花膠~

好啦，要出發去機場lu~下一篇diary已經係new york寫啦﹗

DAY 12 @ USA

The second last day at Hong’s place!!! Today we went to San Francisco. Going to bed late the night before, we slept until around 8am, being waken up by my dad’s phone call. “WHY DON’T YOU GET UP? ENGLAND VS PORTUGAL!!!” haha~ We are watching the other match in San Francisco~

We went to the China Town of San Francisco to have breakfast (probably brunch). On the way there, we ate some of the fruits that we bought yesterday. We went there to have some congee (Hong made a mistake~ She thought that the “sang-gwun-ngao-yuk-juk” equals to “min-chi-ngao-yuk-juk”!!), “ngao-lei-so” and “ja-leung”. They were very delicious but the portion was too big.

Then we joined Hong’s sister’s friend Daniel to watch the World Cup match at Little Italy (a region where there are a lot of italian people and shops). The better pubs and restaurants were full of people. We went into a small pub. The pubs here are non-smoking, which is SO GOOD. The pub seems to me that it is a place for the oldies…oops! The atmosphere was not too good but the TVs were good.

France won! Wow~ Before the match, I actually hoped that France would won because Spain was defeated in the previous round. If France is really that good, Spain is not shameful to lose. I’m not too sure if the whole team is good or not but Zidane is really fit today. Looking forward to the future matches.

After watching the game, we walked around the city: China Town, Union Square, Cable Car museum…and some places that I don’t know how to name.

Daniel said that the triangular building behind us is a bank.

This is a very famous street (I don’t know the exact name of it). Have you ever seen the Mainland version of karaoke of Miriam’s “joi-kin-yi-ding-muk”? It was filmed here. (I wonder how it is related!!!)

Hong’s sister had left afterwards. She went to see a concert (the group is called “Il Divo”, they sing the theme song of the World Cup this year~) tonight. So only Hong and I remained. Then we went to the Fishermen Wharf.

There are a lot of seafood restaurants near the pier. We bought some fish and chips to eat. It was quite expensive but tasted good.

We walked around the nice shops and enjoying there for a long time.

Very nice environment.

There was a gallery showing different artwork. Remember sea otters?

I like this very much. Seal family~

We finally had our dinner late. We ate in the Rainforest Cafe. The one in Hong Kong has closed for many years. I love this restaurant so much! Nice environment, nice food.

When we drove back home, I was super sleepy. Hong told me to sleep…but I think, I’m sleepy, she must be sleepy too, I should chat with her in order to keep her alert. But…I failed to do this. I fell asleep very soon in the car.

Need to get up early tomorrow morning again. We are going to Hong’s church.
