"挪威人發明高台滑雪 ---挪威有山有水,綠色森林覆蓋率很高,峽灣地區比中國的九寨溝景色更雄麗。山頂有積雪,山間時見大小瀑布,霧汽蒸騰,徬晚時常現淡淡的虹影。冬天的挪威是滑雪勝地,高台滑雪是挪威人豪姆考倫第一個發明。他在1917年建立世界上第一個滑雪台,不過挪威人因滑雪而受傷者為數不少。 挪威商品之貴令人咋舌,一個松花蛋二美元,一瓶燒菜的黃酒約八美元,一隻烤鴨要1200克朗,以一比六算,約兩百美元。就在隔壁鄰居瑞典,一隻烤鴨只要280瑞典克朗,所以有些挪威華僑開車去瑞典購買中國食品。餐詈纤愕臇|西是水產品,因為是沿海撈捕來的,成本較低," wrote 海外逸士. The article was posted in this week's '世界周刊' on Worldjournal.com.*4

Touring goes with civilization! The art of life depends critically on wisdom, knowledge, and resources. The extra enjoyment of a touring or traveling may be derived from our good planning and nice implementation.

The following is one paragraph of a report with original source from 東森 in the section of 'Touring' at the Yahoo Chimo news today on November 15, 2007. The title is "賞美景、嚐美食 台東溫泉季等妳來當美人!"

"每年秋末冬初之際,正是金峰鄉洛神花盛開季節,火紅的花萼在山坡、田間,迎風搖曳,嬌豔動人的景致,年年吸引眾多遊客慕名而來;台東杭菊主要產於知本地區的卡地布部落,每年11月中旬後至12月為菊花盛開採收期,成為部落田野特殊景觀,加上中央山脈的山嵐景致,農村景象美不勝收,部落將於11月26日起舉辦系列採菊及原住民體驗之旅。 除此之外,今年的溫泉美食季還推出「揭開知本溪大峽谷神秘面紗」的體驗之旅,讓遊客以溯溪方式深入尚未公開、有祕境美稱的知本溪峽谷,逆流溯溪而上,順漂浮而下,沿途欣賞山川美景與難得一見的動植物生態,絕對讓人值回票價," reported 記者:ETtoday旅遊村/台東訊.*5

"雖然當地人爆料:30年只看過3次 但北極村仗著中國最北的地理位置,不見極光,目擊極晝也算大開眼界。 天氣一暖,又吹起「到漠河看極光」的旋風!大陸看得到極光?引人質疑,東北人信誓旦旦地說:「全中國只有北極村看得到。」但一位當地餐廳老闆說:「30年來,只看過三次極光。」 極光出現在天氣晴朗時,有五顏六色炫麗、變化無窮的雲彩。漠河是有機會看極光,但一日遊就要賞奇景,如同中樂透;但無論如何,憑著神話,數以萬計的遊客四面八方湧入小鎮,短短10年,默默無名小村變成全中國最火紅的景區之一," wrote Writer 楊藍君.*6

The above is an article written by 楊藍君 which was posted in the '世界周刊' on Worldjournal.com. The title of the article is "《旅遊》到漠河看極光" with two colorful pictures by the Author 楊藍君. The pictures were named as  '黑龍江浩瀚壯麗。' and '北極村的碼頭,夏天船家在此招攬遊客遊黑龍江。'.

《旅遊》奔向熱情瓦倫西亞
西班牙地中海的呼喚

 瓦倫西亞港口有一半撥出給美洲杯帆船賽使用。
 美洲杯港規劃良好,有步道、表演看台等。

位於西班牙東岸、緊鄰地中海的瓦倫西亞,有著蔚藍地中海的熱情浪漫,也擁有古今建築交融的藝術氣質,是個體驗豐富的度假勝地。
今年初夏時節,我踏上位於西班牙東部一個港口城市──瓦倫西亞。當蔚藍的地中海映入眼簾,長程飛行的疲憊瞬間消失,當時心中暗忖:衝著這片大海和細白沙灘,此行足矣。

沒想到,瓦倫西亞這個我所知甚少的歐洲城市,大剌剌地在旅人面前施展其獨特魅力,一如那海,讓我的眼光不捨離去。

美洲杯港

帆船爭逐 現代海事戰場

西班牙曾是稱霸一時的海權國家,如今海上強權不再,瓦倫西亞卻因緣際會,四年前被選為世界各國在海上爭戰的新戰場──第32屆美洲杯帆船賽。現代的海上爭戰,出征的船隊不必配備槍砲,而勝利的報酬,是一座以金幣打造的獎杯。

瓦倫西亞見證的,就是這四年一度的海上盛事。本屆美洲杯帆船賽剛落幕,下一屆,各國觀光客、帆船迷將再度聚集在這座特為美洲杯打造的「美洲杯港」(Port America's Cup)。

身為西班牙第三大城(僅次於熙ㄟ釆w里與巴塞隆納),瓦倫西亞的港口是地中海沿岸最繁忙的港口之一。為了美洲杯,當地政府把原來的港口一分為二,其中一半專屬美洲杯所用,包括船隊的基地、供觀光客和帆船迷看比賽的碼頭等。

美洲杯港一帶規劃良好,有步道、表演看台,夕陽西下,帆船停靠港邊,觀光客的活動才剛開始。尤其以夜生活著稱的瓦倫西亞,周末夜在港口附近空地上,不時會舉行大型戶外活動,震耳欲聾的音樂加上色彩繽紛的煙火,把夜空妝點得好不熱鬧。

純淨海灘

戲水天堂 辣嬤美女出籠

瓦倫西亞因緊鄰地中海,擁有一片美麗的海灘,是歐洲著名的度假勝地之一。

碧海藍天下,不同年齡、屬性的人,會在不同時間出現在海灘上做日光浴。例如上午9、10點左右,多半是皮膚鬆弛、但一點也不介意身材變形的阿嬤。下午4、5點,換窈窕美女現身,而且還「上空」,教我們眼睛不吃冰淇淋都難!

夕陽西下,在海灘的另一邊,有人玩起飛行傘,也有迎風騎馬漫步海邊的浪漫場景,這兒是喜歡水上活動者的天堂。

欣賞多元建築之美

瓦倫西亞由羅馬人建於西元前137年,歷經摩爾人(Moors)、阿拉貢人(Aragonese)和條頓族人(Visigoths)的占領,加上曾是古代絲綢貿易中心所在地,在建築和文化上深受羅馬、條頓和穆斯林影響。絲綢貿易中心(La Lonja de la Seda)已被聯合國教科文組織選為世界文化遺址(World Her-itage Site)。

※大教堂(The Cathedral)

建築雄偉,… …

A是瓦倫西亞舊城區的地標,尤其是和教堂相連的米迦勒八角鐘塔(Miguelete),是著名的觀光景點。大教堂建於1262年,之後不斷擴增,擁有哥德、巴洛克和羅馬式三個風格的大門,最古老的是羅馬式的,而正門口建於18世紀,屬巴洛克式。
每到假日,大教堂旁的市政廣場上會出現市集,有些攤子可見到瓦倫西亞的特產──陶器,是吸引當地人和觀光客駐足的最大賣點。

※中央市場(Mercado Central)

瓦倫西亞現代建築的最佳典範,同時也是歐洲最大的市場之一。裡面應有盡有,從海鮮、蔬果、有名的風乾火腿到各式香料,滿足當地人的生活所需,也讓觀光客看花了眼。

※陶瓷博物館(Marques de Dos aigues Palace)

除了內部珍藏5000件以上的陶器,涵蓋史前時代、希臘羅馬時期到畢卡索的作品,值得一看。這棟建築的外表也是藝術品,大門口有個由雕刻家Ignacio Vergara打造的雕像,是瓦倫西亞的觀光景點之一。

大師之作 5棟不可錯過

瓦倫西亞的現代建築之所以知名,要歸功於「瓦倫西亞之子」,同時也是世界知名建築大師Santiago Calatrava。他被喻為「建築雕刻家」,常以大自然為設計靈感。

1996年起,他在瓦倫西亞更改河道後的河床上,打造了5棟深具未來感的建築,包括:宛如地面開花的水族公園,遠看像頭盔近看像沙魚嘴的歌劇院,以眼睛為造型的I-MAX 3D立體電影院,以及一個步道公園和一座應用科學館。

這些建築是瓦倫西亞當代建築的代表,之間有小溪、池水和綠地等一大片供诵蓓⑸⒉降拈_闊空間,白天和夜晚呈現的風貌大不相同,到此一逛保證心境眼界大開。

【逛街驚喜】

和ZARA HOME相遇

就像其他歐洲城市,瓦倫西亞也有一條主要的街道,商店林立。

近年來快速在歐洲各大城市崛起的服飾連鎖店ZARA,就像個磁鐵般吸引觀光客和當地人。我在瓦倫西亞一個新的購物中心和ZARA HOME相遇,這可是第一次看到,非衝進去不可。

顧名思議,ZARA HOME出售各式居家用品,小至香皂、燭台,大至被單、羊毛地毯。不過逛了一圈,刺激感很快就消失了,倒也覺得沒什麼非買不可。走出了ZARA HOME,看到一家玩具店的店面打了兩道門,一道供大人走,一道給小孩過,令人莞爾。

【美食探源】

找到海鮮飯的故鄉

到了瓦倫西亞,一定要吃的兩樣食物,一是paella,另一個是orxata(英文發音horchata,歐恰塔)。

paella是我們熟知的西班牙海鮮飯,其發源地就在瓦倫西亞。其實它原本使用的主要食材不只是海鮮,甚至要有雞肉和兔肉才道地。paella在瓦倫西亞語是「煎鍋」之意,主要的材料有蔬菜、肉或海鮮,再用米、蕃紅花和橄欖油在平底鍋調理。

傳說這道菜是摩爾人占領期間,王宮貴族宴席上的剩菜,由僕人重新炒過之後再帶回家。

至於orxata,則由穆斯林人帶到瓦倫西亞,是杏仁的一種,卻長在土裡。夏天,由這種果實調製的飲料是瓦倫西亞人的最愛,街頭上不時可見推車小販在兜售,通常要冰冰的喝,並搭配加了糖粉的長形甜麵一起吃。(圖文/祁玲)

Governor Jim Gibbons Encourages Nevadans to Prepare for Flu Season and Announces Progress For Nevada Shared Information Technology Services
The effectiveness of Nevada's local and interstate administrative publicity has been many years enhanced by the world leading search engines on Internet!
By Office of the Governor (NV), Melissa Subbotin, and Jennifer Kung

**--**

"Without publicity there can be no public support, and without public support every nation (or organization) must decay." ---Benjamin Disraeli (British Prime Minister and Novelist. 1804-1881)

The following e-mail is from Press Secretary Melissa Subbotin of the Nevada Governor's Office:

Flu season is upon us once again. As the state continues to prepare for the 2007/2008 season, Governor Jim Gibbons will be receiving his annual flu vaccine at the Southern Hills Hospital this Friday, November 16, 2007.*1

Flu shots are recommended for anyone who wants to reduce the chance of getting the flu, and is especially recommended for pregnant women, people 50 years of age and older, and children between the ages of 6 months and 5 years.

To read more about what the state is doing to prepare for flu season please visit http://health.nv.gov , or to find a flu shot clinic nearest you, click here.

WHAT: Governor Gibbons to receive flu shot
WHERE: Southern Hills Hospital
Employee Health Office
9300 W. Sunset Road
Las Vegas , Nevada
DATE: Friday, November 16, 2007
TIME: 1:30 p.m. PST

This event is open to media. Those interested in attending are asked to RSVP with Tiffany Hauck, representing Southern Hills Hospital , at 702-... ext.114.*2

The following e-mail is from Office of the Governor (NV):

Carson City 朑overnor Jim Gibbons announced significant progress in the Nevada Shared Information Technology Services and Infrastructure (NSITS) project today. 揂 significant milestone has been met with formal acceptance of a governance model for the operation of a collaborative, cross-jurisdictional information technology infrastructure. This collaborative will leverage existing infrastructure and future funding to continue to make governmental services available to Nevadans in the most efficient, most secure manner possible, Governor Gibbons said.*3

The collaborative is composed of representatives from Clark County, the City of Las Vegas, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and the State of Nevada. The intent of the NSITS collaborative is to share information resources between governmental entities to support disaster recovery, public safety and continuity of operations initiatives as well as to provide opportunities of economies, efficiencies and scalability for all participating entities.

Governor Gibbons said, 揟his initiative is consistent with my efforts to consolidate information technology within the State of Nevada as well as to build cooperative Fusion Centers. Security and continuity of operations of this state are of utmost importance in the wake of disasters such the recent fires in California or Hurricane Katrina. Collaboration allows us to protect the critical infrastructure and information of state and local governments that otherwise would not be feasible for individual entities.

Director of the Department of Information and Technology Daniel Stockwell said, 揟he governance model is the foundation necessary to move forward with collaborative projects. The governance model provides guidance for the submission of projects for potential collaboration as well as a structure to execute those projects.

This project is one of the first of its kind, promising real value to the citizens of Nevada through cooperation between information technology and records management entities throughout the state. Additionally, the collaborative approach should allow local governments with strained information technology resources to leverage assets and infrastructure already deployed by larger entities within the state.

揟he shared-use approach has the potential of providing economies in systems procurement, efficiencies in operations and scalability (easy expandability) for all participants, said Joe Marcella, CIO for the City of Las Vegas. 揊rom another viewpoint, this will maximize the information resource investment and reduce overlapping technology assets.

揟he acceptance of the governance model by the participants represents over two years of discussion, formal analysis and collaboration.

《旅遊》到漠河看極光

 黑龍江浩瀚壯麗。
 北極村的碼頭,夏天船家在此招攬遊客遊黑龍江。

雖然當地人爆料:30年只看過3次 但北極村仗著中國最北的地理位置,不見極光,目擊極晝也算大開眼界。
天氣一暖,又吹起「到漠河看極光」的旋風!大陸看得到極光?引人質疑,東北人信誓旦旦地說:「全中國只有北極村看得到。」但一位當地餐廳老闆說:「30年來,只看過三次極光。」

極光出現在天氣晴朗時,有五顏六色炫麗、變化無窮的雲彩。漠河是有機會看極光,但一日遊就要賞奇景,如同中樂透;但無論如何,憑著神話,數以萬計的遊客四面八方湧入小鎮,短短10年,默默無名小村變成全中國最火紅的景區之一。

漠河的夏日陽光頂多兩個月,最高溫20℃,入夜10℃,年均溫約零下5.5℃,嚴冬零下50℃;夏至暖洋洋的陽光格外珍貴,17年前,縣府把夏至(6月21日左右)定為北極節,舉辦花車遊行,吸引窩在屋裡大半年的漠河人出來透氣。

花車遊行 俗又有力

花車遊行,夏至上午9時在縣城西林吉起步。各單位競賽般斥資打造俗又有力的花車,化著濃濃胭脂的花車小姐頻頻招手,遊行女生頭戴花不溜丟的紙花帽、男生手拿大紅紙花束,齊步走、喊口號,舞龍舞獅壓軸。

司令台上沒搭遮陽棚,沒人撐洋傘,人山人海曬暖陽。看完熱鬧,搭車兩小時、長途跋涉83公里,到黑龍江畔的北極村參加篝火晚會。

北極村 慈禧胭脂情

北極村深處大興安嶺境內,是中國最北的臨江小鎮,原稱漠河村,這個小村曾經紅過。清咸豐年間的100多年前,有人在老金溝發現金礦,展開一場中俄搶金惡鬥,慈禧派人平定沙俄的燒殺擄掠,當地人安心淘金,駐守將軍把金子獻給慈禧,慈禧把上貢的金子向法國人買胭脂,並把老金溝改名為「胭脂溝」,直到1997年,規劃成看極光的勝地,改名北極村。

如今,胭脂溝畔仍可見整排黑色淘金小屋,只是,溝畔不見淘金客,黑色小屋空蕩蕩,佇立一旁的採金船是導遊訴說胭脂溝的樣板。但遊客不在乎慈禧與胭袚噙^金的老故事,主要還是看極光。

黑龍江畔 歌舞極晝

看極光?沒把握!極晝肯定有。極晝的夜像傍晚、又像黎明,凌晨3、4時,天色放亮,白晝至少19小時,人們在晚上6時齊聚黑龍江畔唱歌跳舞,篝火晚會徹夜不眠。

黑龍江是東北的母親河,昔稱墨水。全長4370公里,穿越中國、蒙古與俄羅斯三國。遠觀黑龍江水真是黑的,兩岸土壤含大量腐質土沖到河裡,黑土沉入江底所致,其實此處水質清澈。

之所以稱她母親河,一來她繞著東北長流2900公里,二來靠江吃飯的人不少。漁民靠江打魚,江裡盛產大馬哈魚、重唇魚等珍貴冷水魚,常年冷溫,魚肉緊實,相當好吃;每年11月到翌年4月水路變冰路,整車木材駛過冰面是中俄貿易高潮。夏至,船家上岸攬客,四人共乘搭船馳騁黑龍江,來回20分鐘人民幣60元。

江上,眺望對岸俄羅斯小村莊。北極村在地人說:老毛子的日子比咱們差多了。東北人稱俄羅斯人「老毛子」。

7月西瓜 格外香甜

到漠河看極光的人越來越多,淘金客改行開餐廳或民宿,北極村農戶也成長。昔日黑色木屋換裝炫麗小屋,屋後以燒矮磚牆砌成一條長長的火地龍,搭個透明帳棚當暖房,在沙地上種西瓜。西瓜是農民的寶貝,7月採收,如果趕上收成,務必吃個痛快。夏天日照長,晝夜溫差大,瓜果格外香甜,一斤賣20元,屬天價水果。

神州北極是黑龍江邊搶眼石碑,重達7噸、高2.8公尺的天然純花崗岩,背對著江水往南看,等於面對整個中國。沿江車行10分鐘,有棟紅色塔屋北極哨所,它是全中國最北的哨台。此處尚未開放參觀,一有遊客接近,哨兵猛吹哨,只能悄悄留影見證。

最北廁所 異味沖天

中國最北之家也在江畔的必遊處,屋前車水馬龍,小屋對面茅房是中國最北的廁所,「最北」兩字加持,有人拚老命也要方便,使用率超高,強烈異味,讓人逃之夭夭。

環伺左右是寬廣平坦的大興安嶺,毫無壯麗的震撼,因為漠河在1987年一場森林大火,燒毀巨木,如今復建的樹齡都不滿20歲,林相幼齒。

漠河1萬8322平方公里,人口10萬,千里迢迢到此,若沒看到極光,看著浩瀚黑龍江,踏著中國最北村莊,吃著珍貴重唇魚與野生蕈菇,夏天裹著大棉被、睡大坑,也是一種旅遊成績單。

赴漠河,從哈爾濱搭火車穿過內蒙北上最理想,需21小時,最好買臥舖。軟臥票價約人民幣500元,夏至,一票難求,只好買硬臥。下舖240元、中舖232元,上舖100元左右。下舖可坐直,中舖與上舖橫著進、橫著出,上舖等於躺著面壁,但總比坐著強。漠河車站到縣城西林吉「打的」10元可抵下榻處。

北極村一日遊,來回司機兼導遊約150~200元。烏力吉,50歲,蒙古人,個性阿莎力,導遊仔細,電話1350456829、13039911859。

漠河飯店是當地檔次最高、唯一有衛浴的二星級旅館,旺季一間人民幣600元,平日400元;西林吉家庭旅館頗乾淨,夏至一晚約50元,平日10~20元,屋內有廁無浴。漠河家庭旅館/福地袛居,屋主黃安岐。電話:0457-2883691 

漠河大半年冬天,家裡不燒熱水,沒有天天洗澡,公共澡堂淋浴一人30元。北極村也有很多民宿,價錢貴,衛生水平極差,食宿都容易被坑,不宜下榻。(文圖/楊藍君)

賞美景、嚐美食 台東溫泉季等妳來當美人!
更新日期:2007/11/15 11:52 記者:ETtoday旅遊村/台東訊
以「撿便宜、嚐美食、泡好湯、賞好景」為主軸的「2007活力健康 台東溫泉祭」活動將於16日正式展開,台東縣政府結合金峰鄉洛神花季與卡地布部落的杭菊花季,規劃出系列美食體驗活動與套裝遊程,各溫泉飯店業者更前所未有推出「買二送一」的超值優惠。

「2007活力健康 台東溫泉祭」將由16日中午的「溫泉美食發表會」揭開序幕,台東各地的溫泉飯店主廚將齊聚知本富野溫泉休閒會館,端出各式精心研發的特色料理,並宣告為期兩個半月的台東溫泉美食季正式開鑼;當天晚間於知本忠義堂廣場的「夜來,串門子」活動還有精彩歌舞演出與趣味抽獎,各飯店主廚更準備了各色宵夜小吃,保證讓遊客們玩的盡興、吃個痛快。

除了美食宵夜,最受歡迎的當然是泡湯享受。台東地區溫泉業者包括南橫天龍飯店、鹿野鄉鹿鳴酒店、太麻里東太陽溫泉會館及知本溫泉區內的富野溫泉休閒會館、東遊記、東台、統茂、泓泉、豐泰等飯店,都破天荒推出「買二送一」的超值優惠,也就是溫泉季期間連續住兩夜,即再送一張免費住宿券;剛整修完成的知本老爺酒店也推出現場優惠價格。

台東縣知本溫泉觀光發展促進協會指出,老字號的知本溫泉是台灣四大名湯之一,泉質屬於鹼性碳酸氫納泉,又稱為「美人湯」,具有滋潤皮膚、軟化角質層的功效,更可消除疲勞、增強免疫力。

為讓溫泉季活動更為豐富多樣,台東縣政府更結合了金峰鄉的洛神花季與卡地布部落的杭菊採收季,讓遊客感受原住民部落的花季盛宴。

每年秋末冬初之際,正是金峰鄉洛神花盛開季節,火紅的花萼在山坡、田間,迎風搖曳,嬌豔動人的景致,年年吸引眾多遊客慕名而來;台東杭菊主要產於知本地區的卡地布部落,每年11月中旬後至12月為菊花盛開採收期,成為部落田野特殊景觀,加上中央山脈的山嵐景致,農村景象美不勝收,部落將於11月26日起舉辦系列採菊及原住民體驗之旅。

除此之外,今年的溫泉美食季還推出「揭開知本溪大峽谷神秘面紗」的體驗之旅,讓遊客以溯溪方式深入尚未公開、有祕境美稱的知本溪峽谷,逆流溯溪而上,順流漂浮而下,沿途欣賞山川美景與難得一見的動植物生態,絕對讓人值回票價。

「2007活力健康 台東溫泉祭」活動將於11月16日持續至97年1月31日,各項相關活動訊息可電洽當地各飯店,或台東縣知本溫泉觀光發展促進協會副總幹事劉文等,電話 0938-335573 。

《旅遊》挪威見聞

 挪威峽灣地區風景。
 典型挪威式古建築。

竊賊偷東西被發現,屋主見沒有什麼損失就放他走了。一會兒那竊賊卻回來問屋主,他走哪條路可以更便捷地離開…。
最早的挪威是海盜的根據地,在19世紀前及中先後分別為丹麥、瑞典的殖民地,到1905年始成為獨立王國,行君主立憲政體。它的國王不是挪威人,而是當時丹麥的一個王子,被挪威人請去當了挪威國王。由於歐洲王室當時盛行近親通婚,所以據說子孫智力較差。到了現代,王子們都喜歡上平民女子,這雖然破壞了傳統婚姻制度,但對後代的智力改進應大有裨益。

以前挪威是貧窮國家,近來發現海底油礦,逐漸成了富國,被其他西歐國家稱為暴發戶。特別是瑞典人對挪威獨立而拿走這麼一塊富饒土地大為惱怒。

挪威人發明高台滑雪

挪威有山有水,綠色森林覆蓋率很高,峽灣地區比中國的九寨溝景色更雄麗。山頂有積雪,山間時見大小瀑布,霧汽蒸騰,徬晚時常現淡淡的虹影。冬天的挪威是滑雪勝地,高台滑雪是挪威人豪姆考倫第一個發明。他在1917年建立世界上第一個滑雪台,不過挪威人因滑雪而受傷者為數不少。

挪威商品之貴令人咋舌,一個松花蛋二美元,一瓶燒菜的黃酒約八美元,一隻烤鴨要1200克朗,以一比六算,約兩百美元。就在隔壁鄰居瑞典,一隻烤鴨只要280瑞典克朗,所以有些挪威華僑開車去瑞典購買中國食品。挪威最合算的東西是水產品,因為是沿海撈捕來的,成本較低。

在挪威行醫比美國安全,因為一般情況下,病家不能狀告醫生,除非有嚴重的醫療事故,而又確是醫生的責任。在美國,因為怕被病人告,醫生在診斷病情時顯得縮手縮腳。作為全民福利,挪威病人是依區就診的,一切費用都由政府付給醫生,病人憑醫生處方取藥也是免費的。不過,醫生跟病人勾結亂開藥方,查出後將取消行醫資格。挪威醫生的病人來源較有保證,不用擔心乏人問津。

獄警怕被告 態度特好

挪威監牢待遇很好,犯人可以外買飯菜,獄警不可以苛待犯人,有的犯人故意罵獄警,惹他發火,可以去告他,但獄警都不上當,態度特好。有一個人犯了交通規則,判處一千克朗罰款或五天監禁,他不想出錢,準備坐牢,日子由自己安排。這人想反正聖誕節沒事,就申請聖誕節先坐兩天牢,以後再補三天。不料聖誕節監牢客滿,因為聖誕節監牢中待遇特好。後來有人告訴他,坐牢一事要寫進他的檔案,並且不註明坐牢原因,有坐牢紀錄會影響今後人生,最後他繳一千克朗罰款了事。

挪威人比較純樸,連做賊也鬧笑話。有人回家剛一開門,見一陌生男子拎了他太太的手提包正要離開,他太太在樓上沒看到。陌生男子一見屋主回來,忙主動交還提包,屋主查了一下,見沒有什麼損失,就放竊賊走了。一會兒那竊賊卻回來了,屋主很奇怪,不知這竊賊是什麼意思,原來竊賊回來問屋主,他走哪條路可以更便捷地逃走,真是個可愛的竊賊。

街上乞丐 都從東歐來

挪威因為富有,早就沒有乞丐,但最近街上又出現了乞丐,都是從東歐來的,討到我們面前,只能把換來的挪威硬幣給他一個。

還有兩個小印象:挪威街頭看到的金髮碧眼男女比美國多,而大腹便便者卻很稀有,要減肥者不妨移民到挪威去。(文、圖/海外逸士)

The above result is from the feature article entitled "Touring Las Vegas, Beijing, Soel, Taipei, Macau, Bangkok, etc.: Their international visiability and popularity are enhacing through the leading search engines on Internet! ---President Dr. Tony Lei appointed Nancy Saitta and Barbara Buckley Associate Professors of the Graduate School of Business and Public Administration of WBTI". It was written by Valorie Vega, Mark Denton, Valerie Weber, Cheryl Moss, and Tiffany Chang in the section of 'Social & Community' at the WBTI's website on October 29, 2007. Justice Nancy Saitta of the Nevada Supreme Court is now a famous Associate Professor of the Graduate School of Business and Public Administration of WBTI.

"美國開放對中國公民旅遊簽證的磋商有望在年底出現結果,美國對中國冰封已久的國門將應聲而開。在經濟槓桿撬動下,美國為國家利益逐步調整姿態,華裔學者認為,開放中國公民旅遊對中、美雙方皆利大於弊。據世界旅遊組織預測,2020年,中國公民將有一億人次出境旅遊,以每人平均消費一千美元計算,市場為一千億美元截至2007年,向中國遊客開放旅遊的國家已增至132個,中國境內旅行社達672家。中國公民在海外的旅遊M額每年超過160億美元 ,年出境旅遊人數逾三千萬人次," reported 記者田霞 from Los Angeles, California. The report was posted in the '洛杉磯新聞' of Worldjournal.com on November 9, 2007.*5
"面對如此巨大的利潤,美國旅遊業早已按捺不住,... 西方文理學院美國研究研究系主任尹曉煌稱,如果開放旅遊,將改善中美雙方的形象,並增進雙方相互瞭解,是利大於弊的好事。他說,中國資產在五百萬美元以上的富人階層,人數已趕上日本,中產階級也達三億人,相當於中國人口的25%左右,對開放赴美旅遊提供先機條件。" This looks good as a response to our many feature articles on touring and tourism in the recent months.

"尹曉煌表示,美國學習中文的人數已超過學日文的人數,中文熱的趨勢不可阻擋,也從側面揭示美國社會毙枰t解中國的社會與文化,開放旅遊無疑可推波助瀾。不過,所有對文化的接受都是以經濟實力做背書,此次開放也顯示中國經濟發展後,美國的策略改變。洛杉磯州大傳播系教授白春生分析,美國打開中國公民旅遊簽證大門,壓力來自政治與經濟各界。中美貿易逆差數字連年攀升,旅遊業界不甘心讓每年上百億美元的中國公民出境遊大餅拱手讓給其他國家,因此對國會不斷施壓。尹曉煌認為,開放旅遊是打破中美貿易僵局的方式, 旅遊可另闢蹊徑,更可減少中美貿易不平衡現象。中美雙方都明白,個人之間的接觸必將減少誤解,增進友誼," wrote Reporter 田霞 logically and vividly.*6

"賭城城外一日遊去處,可去玩有山有水的密德湖北邊及火谷路線。這趟路車程約兩個半小時,風景區停留遊玩時間一共四至五小時,非常輕鬆的度過一天。 從賭城大道出發 ...火谷州立公園的牌示出現,招牌背後有紅山藍水遠景陪襯,令人心曠神怡遊興驟振。 原本枯黃乾燥的沙漠土石,突然變成漂亮的紅色奇岩林立,碧藍色天空純淨無瑕,... 遊客能先看到千萬年前的石化樹幹(Petrifier Log)遺址,可以照相但不可敲碎樹幹帶回家留念," reported 記者馮鳴台 (Mindy Gao).*7 It was posted in the section of the 'Touring in U. S. A.' on Worldjournal.com. A colorful picture about '羅杰溫泉是賭城區唯一溫泉' was put together with the report by her.

For its innovation and breakthrough in business, Nevada has more ... Are they the Touring, Special Hospitality, Gaming, Famous Convention, and their educations and exports?

"I love Las Vegas because the valley and surrounding mountains provide an unusual beauty that stirs my soul. Even when I'm stuck in traffic, the mountain shadows capture something in my heart. And if I catch a glimpse of Red Rock Canyon National Recreation Area, or the top of Mount Charleston, or Sunrise Mountain at sunset, it brings a moment of peace, even from a distance," wrote Jane Ann Morrison.*8

"下個地點會經過一座如蜂巢的紅石(Bee Hive),風化與洪水千萬年沖刷以後留下如蜂窩似的巨石,比人工雕琢更美。... 山後面每塊紅色石頭,以動物或實體姿態呈現在眼前,如像貴賓狗的巨石,三角鋼琴石、鴨子、眼鏡蛇,還有古印地安人三千年前的石頭藝術遺址,... 繼續走向山後,又有一番與紅石不同的風情,名叫彩虹山谷( Rainbow Valley) 的地方,山色瑰麗多變,真的是五彩繽紛,... 彩虹山谷內另有驚奇。" She wrote it nicely with a direction of scheduling more for the one day touring as in the following:

"密德湖北畔Overton Beach,這裡只有小雜貨禮品店,沒有餐廳,可以帶食物坐在湖邊享用。湖上會有許多野鴨,牠們早學會向人類乞食,如果有多餘的乾糧,讓小孩去餵鴨,雖不下水玩也另有一番樂趣。 假使出了密德湖畔還有大半個下午可玩,就要選擇169向北走,到歷史小鎮Overton去看古印地安人遺址「失落城」博物館 (Lost City Museum),感受幾千年前在這裡住的印地安居民生活實況。 看完博物館,一天的旅遊也算夠了,剩餘一個半小時,是留給駕車返回賭城的時間," Reporter Mindy Gao (記者馮鳴台) had this report for World Journal from Las Vegas, Nevada.*9

"開放中國公民來美旅遊簽證,對美國的華裔社區宛如一把雙刃劍。雖然「錢」景頗樂觀,西方文理學院美國研究系主任尹曉煌說,他獲悉包括北京、上海、廣州與杭州等中國首批12座城市在此次開放旅遊簽證的名單中。這些「貴氣十足」的城市在美國的非法移民群體中人數較少。由於經濟發展較快,旅客荷包滿滿,甚至締造赴歐洲橫掃巴黎香榭麗舍精品店的驚人神話,他們的受歡迎程度令美國商家期待,因此他們應不是上演「跳機鬧劇」的人選," reported 記者(Reporter) 田霞 in her '洛杉磯報導' to World Journal.*10

"尹曉煌分析,這反映中國發達地區的民眾,有如當年的台灣、韓國與日本,對出國旅遊已漸存平常心,很多人更愛自己的家園,不會非法跳機。中國現階段貧富分化,在股市與房市「金股齊鳴」中製造出大批富人,赴美旅遊的目的大多是為採購國際奢侈商品,甚至到海外投資,因此成為非法移民的機率不大,出現投資移民的機率反而可能增多。" She stated the point of view by 西方文理學院美國研究系主任尹曉煌 in the above two paragraphs.

By the way on their traveling, they may enjoy also some learning, adventuring, attending conferences, and among others.

A magazine puts Las Vegas first on the outdoor activities that make city top adventure town. "National Geographic Adventure, in its September issue, names Las Vegas the nation's No. 1 adventure town in which to live and play. This year, a National Geographic Adventure editorial board wanted to find a city that was affordable and close to outdoor activities. Dan Koeppel said the editors picked Las Vegas for the cover story after a brainstorming session," reported Reporter Beth Walton early in the morning on August 27, 2007.*11

"The freelance travel and adventure writer has written about Las Vegas a lot in his career and said it is the one city he never gets bored covering. ... A visitor profile study by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Bureau showed that 48 percent of visitors from foreign countries in 2006 explored the area's recreational and scenic attractions, including Lake Mead, Hoover Dam, Mount Charleston and Red Rock Canyon." *12

"中國遊客擁入也可能再次給在美華人烙上「永遠的外國人」的標誌。洛杉磯加大社會學系教授周敏認為,曾因膚色、語言障礙難以融入美國的華裔社區,更多中國人觀光客進來可能使更多移民感到「異鄉人」的尷尬。但周敏認為,根據過去三年中國公民赴歐洲旅遊的情形,中國人通過旅遊滯留外國不歸的問題不會太多。 開放旅遊為非法移民提供捷徑的說法,洛杉磯州大傳播系教授白春生與上述兩位教授均不以為然。白春生認為,年底旅遊簽證即使開放,兩國也會採謹慎態度,押金、簽證配額都可能實施,一、兩年後,美方衡量其經濟影響、文化交流,才可能全面開放," wroted Reporter 田霞 about the opion by 洛杉磯州大傳播系教授白春生 different from the above two professors.*13

The International Cities Business Council (ICBC) of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) strives to build a bridge among important cities nationally and internationally. ICBC has set the following goals: (1) Mutual cooperation and development of business, trade, and tourism; (2) Public relations among businesses and professionals; and (3) Social and dinner events within the community with a friendly atmosphere.

Under high-ranking officials' advice and with the efforts of its Chairperson Charlyne Chen and Vice Chairpersons Xiaosheng Huang $ Yin Yan, the Directors of the International Cities Business Council (ICBC) at the present time are: Honorable Han Zheng, Mayor of the City of Shanghai, China, Honorable Jim Gibson, Mayor of the City of Henderson, Nevada, Honorable Michael L. Montandon, Mayor of the City of North Las Vegas, Nevada, Dr. Stuart Mann, Dean of the William F. Harrah College of Hotel Administration, University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV), Honorable Feng Wei Lai, former County Governor of Penghu, Taiwan, Honorable Changping Zhang, Mayor of Xiamen, China, and the Honorable Tommy Hu, CEO (Mayor) of Xiang Fan, Hubei, China, CEO of United Commercial Bank, notably among others.*1 The success of initiating and implementing of the Entertaiment and Gaming Summit 2007 in Taipei on August 27, 2007 by Miss Charlyne Chen, NCED, UNLV, and Chinese Cultural University was remarkeble!

President Dr. Carol C. Harter of UNLV and Nevada Assemblywoman Valerie Weber were elected Advisors of the Council.*2

In recent years, Hunt has led three missions to China to encourage additional trade and tourism between China and Nevada.

Tourism is the bedrock of Nevada's economy. To expand and diversify our domestic and international markets are absolutely essential to our long-term economic growth and stability.

Nevada's tourism industry must continue to expand its offerings and reach out to diverse markets that range from outdoor enthusiasts to residents of the world's most populous nation (China). Speaking at the general session of the Governor's Conference on Tourism at Caesars Palace, he and she each praised Nevada's continuing efforts to supplement its gaming-based core with non-gaming amenities such as shopping, dinning, and outdoor recreation.*3

"I can't overstate the significance of China's potential as a visitor market for Nevada," former Lt. Governor Hunt said. "I found modern cities rife with elements of Western culture such as Starbucks Coffee, MTV, the Rat Pack-era music of Frank Sinatra, etc. Up to 10 percent of the country's approximately 1.4 billion residents can now afford to travel overseas, which has positioned China as Nevada's "newest and most-modern market" for tourism." *4

Lorraine Hunt has been Honorary Chairperson of ICBC [國際城市企業協進會] since 1998. To win over her experience and caliber on tourism, she has also been invited by Lt. Governor Brian Krolicki as a Commissioner of NCOT soon after he took office early this year.

"It's really a challenge to me! Lots of my job are related to have a function on the basis of international perspective. Through this professional and practical venue, I'll put all my effort and talent to implement the missions for the promotion of the economic and trade cooperation and development among cities of Nevada, China, Taiwan, Macau, and other Pacific & Asian countries," said Miss Charlyne Chen (陳思庭), Chairperson of the ICBC (國際城市企業協進會) of WBTI (華盛頓工商技术研究院). Accomplishment is proved to be a journey with united and harmonious efforts. The ingenuity and ability from its Vice Presidents Attorney Xiaosheng Huang and Miss Yin Yan are important. Charlyne is also the Trade Representative in Taiwan of Nevada Commission on Economic Development. She is now the Representative of UNLV (Las Vegas, Nevada) in the Great China Area.

"As the Hononary Chairperson of International Cities Business Council of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI), I'll have more venues to work for international tourism with Nevada Governor Jim Gibbons (formerly Kenny Guinn) who is the Chairman of the Advisory Board of WBTI. We're putting all our effort and wisdom to work for our people, land, and country under the spiritual leadership of Chairperson Elaine Chao of WBTI," said Lorraine Hunt, former Lt. Governor of Nevada and now Commissioner of Nevada Commission on Tourism (NCOT).

The 2007 Nevada Governor's Conference on Tourism will be an annual significant event for the interest of many people, businesses, and countries. It will be held on December 12-14 this year in Las Vegas. In the 'Welcome and Introduction' of General Assembly, we shall have Jim Gibbons, Governor, and Brian K. Krolicki, Lieutenant Governor, State of Nevada for the 'Opening Remarks'. The 'Introduction' will be delivered by the Commissioner of NCOT Lorraine T. Hunt-Bono. The topic of the Assembly will be on "Growth: Challenges and Opportunities". WBTI has assisted to publicize the conference for many years. Governor Jim Gibbons of Nevada is now Chairman of the Advisory Board of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) [華盛頓工商技术研究院].

"With Lt. Governor Brian Krolicki as our Chairman of the Advisory Board of ICBC, WBTI will be more empowered to assist the economic development and tourism of Nevada," said Nevada Assemblywoman Valerie Weber who is one of the Advisors of the Board. The sky is beautiful in this silver state.*15 Nevada is the spring fountain of world business in entertainment, gaming, convention, and tourism!

For the visiability and popularity of some international cities through the leading search engines on Internet, our coming work performance to some significant projects will be feature articles on the sceneries of Las Vegas, Beijing, Soel, Taipei, Macau, Bangkok, and among others. Tourism and business are our best priorities for the International Cities Business Council (ICBC) of WBTI on the ground of non-profit and non-partisan basis. The late Dr. Peter F. Drucker inspired us that, "Innovation is very important. No good business can survive without successful innovation during a period of time!" Nevada is the fountain of hospitality and touring business. Macau is a recent practice with Nevada to have great prosperity in tourism and economic development. Now, Nevada Assemblywoman Francis Allen is a Regional Marketing Administrator of Korea of the AMI and Advisor of the ICBC of WBTI. For innovation and breakthrough in the field of business, the wise men may have a bright and beautiful sky!

To encourage tourism and business is a worldwide value for every country in this earth (world), not just for Nevada! Volunteerly on a non-profit and non-partisan basis, we are pleased to assist the promotion of this endeavor. We love heartily the Earth (world) that we are living with!

(1) The travel and tourism industry is the lifeblood of many states around the country - including Florida, California, New York and Nevada, to name a few. ---Mark Foley
(2) What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. ---Jeff Candido and Jason Hoff
(3) Southern Nevada is visited by over 35 million people each year; many of these tourists are our friends from foreign countries. ---Jon Porter
(4) The most interesting people are the people with the most interesting pictures in their minds. ---Earl Nightingale
(5) Any business that does not learn how to innovate within the next few years will not be around by the year 2000. ---Peter F. Drucker
Q: How can I make my website more visitors? Ans. the supreme leader of YouTube: Make fun!
(6) Las Vegas is sort of like how God would do it if he had money. ---Steve Wynn
(7) United we stand. In God we trust. ---Popular world proverb

Nevada Lt. Governor Brian Krolicki has Olympian vision for state tourism! Innovation is advanced by the "creating" through the "refining".

"Nevada's lieutenant governor-elect has international goals for the state's No. 1 industry, including pursuing the 2018 Olympic Winter Games and attracting travelers from China and India. Facing one of the largest audiences of Nevada tourism professionals, Treasurer Brian Krolicki, said Tuesday at the governor's conference on tourism, that putting Nevada in the running for the winter games will spur economic growth in the future. It has worked in the past," wrote Becky Bosshart.*5

"The 1960 Olympics helped to put Reno and Tahoe on the map," he said to conference participants at the Silver Legacy Casino Resort. "We want this world-class event to come here again. Some people say it's a long shot. But in tourism, we do long shots. Our efforts next year and thereafter will be seeds sown for a future harvest." *6 "Taking the second highest office in state government, Krolicki will also chair the Nevada Commission on Tourism and the Nevada Commission on Economic Development, organizations that attract and retain businesses and market the state's lucrative tourism industry. He follows Lt. Gov. Lorraine Hunt into the positions. Hunt said she is passing on a strong tourism economy that derives $40 billion a year. Tourism officials recently visited India to develop tourism ties. India's middle class is about the size of the U.S. population, 300 million."

Lt. Governor of Nevada Brian Krolicki is Chairman of both the Nevada Commission on Tourism (NCOT) and the Nevada Commission on Economic Development (NCED) since early this year. The experienced and achieved former Nevada Lt. Governor Lorraine T. Hunt-Bono is favored by both Governor Jim Gibbons and Lt. Governor Krolicki as an important Commissioner of the NCOT.

Neveda has been famous internationally for its Governor抯 Conference on Tourism every year. It is the time now to get our professionals in familiar with the coming one!

"The 2007 Nevada Governor抯 Conference on Tourism (December 12-14, 2007) highlights the pertinent topics you need to know for increased profitability and tourism market share including NEW for 2007! workshop track sessions designed to fit your individual professional interests. This year抯 conference marks the introduction of four tracks that each focus on a specific tourism industry niche," states the Nevada Commission of Tourism. "On December 12, 2007, at 8:30 am - 9:00 am there will be the Welcome and Introduction. In the 'Welcome and Introduction' of General Assembly, we shall have Jim Gibbons, Governor, and Brian K. Krolicki, Lieutenant Governor, State of Nevada for the 'Opening Remarks'. The 'Introduction' will be delivered by the Commissioner of NCOT Lorraine T. Hunt-Bono. The topic of the Assembly will be on "Growth: Challenges and Opportunities". *7

"Evening Reception ?Cocktails and hors d抩euvres will be sponsored by: Las Vegas Meetings by Harrah's Entertainment. Opening Remarks will be dilivered by Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman, and with Introduction by: Lieutenant Governor Brian K. Krolicki."

"At 7:30 am - 8:30 am on Thursday, December 13, 2007, there will be a Continental Breakfast with International Representatives. Get acquainted with the representatives from Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom, Japan, China, Germany, South Korea, Australia, and France. Each international representative will be available to discuss one-on-one how to tap into this vital and thriving market. It will be sponsored by: Advanced Results Marketing, DRGM Advertising, Incline Village Crystal Bay Visitors Bureau, Reno-Tahoe International Airport," posted the Commission on TRAVELNEVADA.COM.*8

Tourism for Nevada has been long time one of the emphases on our publications. Gibbons wbti: International visiability and popularity of the 2007 Nevada Governor's Conference on Tourism is enhancing through the leading search engines on Internet all over the world!

"We now have a unique opportunity and challenge--to take the nearly 143 years of growth and progress that has created the Nevada of today, and set a course for the future. All of us must share a common vision of one Nevada ?which can only become a reality if we agree upon what promises that vision entails," wrote Nevada Governor James A. Gibbons.*9

"I've been inspired by Dr. Linda Livingstone's vision and work performance on implementing values-centered leaders and international perspectives. Leadership is love through integrity! To lead is to serve, to give, and to achieve together. Love with value is based on a real, practical, and genuine spirit concern for others as persons, for their values as they feel them, for their development and growth. The elegance of leadership in education is signified by serve and love. Under her initiative all the way from academic programs, alumni enphases, through international perspectives, I with my guest Nevada District Judge Mark Denton could experience her popularity and ingenuity at a dinner party by her for Pepperdine University's alumni and friends in Las Vegas. It's our pleasure to join the School in congratulating Dean Livingstone's advanced commitment and endeavor," pointed out U. S. Congresswoman Shelley Berkley's Senior Advisor Dr. Tony T. Lei early in the morning on August 3, 2007 in Las Vegas, Nevada.*10

"Thanks, Dr. Lei," wrote Nevada Assemblywoman Valerie Weber to WBTI. "The WBTI's website has played an important role to bridge the cooperation and development among our individuals, officials, and communities. In advancing to its 14th year, we're glad to find WBTI's interstate and international perspectives have brought with potentiality for the prosperity of more organiztions and people." *11

"Dear Dr. and Mrs. Lei: Since I shall be in Washington, D.C., I believe that I shall be constantly reminded of the ideals that are the subject of the messages and quotations contained in your correspondence, particularly those about vision, enthusiasm, and assistance," wrote Nevada District Judge Mark R. Denton to President Dr. Tony T. Lei of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) and his wife Judy on June 18, 2007 in Las Vegas, Nevada.*12

The international perspectitive for a world famous university like Pepperdine is significant. Wish the 'Study Abroad Programs for Alumni' of its Graziadio School of Business and Management a great success!

賭城近郊密德湖 火谷值得一遊

 羅杰溫泉是賭城區唯一溫泉。(本報記者馮鳴台攝)

【本報記者馮鳴台拉斯維加斯報導】賭城城外一日遊去處,可去玩有山有水的密德湖北邊及火谷路線。這趟路車程約兩個半小時,風景區停留遊玩時間一共四至五小時,非常輕鬆的度過一天。
從賭城大道出發,先取道I-15往北,行走約30分鐘,會遇見169號叉路,路口寫著通往火谷之路( Valley of Fire),一轉進169號路時,眼前是一家印地安禮品店附帶加油站,孤立於空曠的沙漠之中,這就對了,順著加油站旁169公路東行約30分鐘,火谷州立公園的牌示出現,招牌背後有紅山藍水遠景陪襯,令人心曠神怡遊興驟振。

原本枯黃乾燥的沙漠土石,突然變成漂亮的紅色奇岩林立,碧藍色天空純淨無瑕,還沒到訪客中心,可以下車遊玩的景點已先進入,順著指示牌,遊客能先看到千萬年前的石化樹幹(Petrifier Log)遺址,可以照相但不可敲碎樹幹帶回家留念。

下個地點會經過一座如蜂巢的紅石(Bee Hive),風化與洪水千萬年沖刷以後留下如蜂窩似的巨石,比人工雕琢更美。

接著就要去訪客中心,確定想去看的火谷美景和故事。訪客中心出來向右往上山路走,展開一連串令人驚嘆的旅程。山後面每塊紅色石頭,以動物或實體姿態呈現在眼前,如像貴賓狗的巨石,三角鋼琴石、鴨子、眼鏡蛇,還有古印地安人三千年前的石頭藝術遺址,一面看風景,還可以爬岩健行。

繼續走向山後,又有一番與紅石不同的風情,名叫彩虹山谷( Rainbow Valley) 的地方,山色瑰麗多變,真的是五彩繽紛,下車可以再走一段路,去到一個曾經多次用來作電影外景的山谷內,這裡遊客很少,大多數人在看過前一段路上的奇石就以為沒什麼更好看的,所以無法想像更遠的彩虹山谷內另有驚奇。

回到訪客中心以後,繼續往東邊密德湖的方向走,途中會經過七座不連接的漂亮巨石,她們就是「七姊妹石」,很多遊客在這裡野餐,休息一下再上路。

從七姊妹石再往東走約兩哩路,路的左邊有一個象鼻巨石,由於路面狹窄,看象鼻石得再往前停車後走回頭來欣賞。

看過象鼻石,火谷風景區算是走完了,很快就會到達前方的密德湖北畔Overton Beach,這裡只有小雜貨禮品店,沒有餐廳,可以帶食物坐在湖邊享用。湖上會有許多野鴨,牠們早學會向人類乞食,如果有多餘的乾糧,讓小孩去餵鴨,雖不下水玩也另有一番樂趣。

離開Overton Beach,有兩種行程選擇,依時間早晚作決定,如果已經過了下午4時,選擇路線為向南行,沿密德湖往拉斯維加斯方向走。上169號南向約五分鐘,會經過一處叫作Roger's Warm Springs,天色未暗前可以停車以溫泉泡腳幾分鐘再走,不用付任何費用。

假使出了密德湖畔還有大半個下午可玩,就要選擇169向北走,到歷史小鎮Overton去看古印地安人遺址「失落城」博物館 (Lost City Museum),感受幾千年前在這裡住的印地安居民生活實況。

看完博物館,一天的旅遊也算夠了,剩餘一個半小時,是留給駕車返回賭城的時間。

開放中國客 美爭數百億大餅
放眼中國三億中產階級遊客 有助降美中貿易逆差

【本報記者田霞洛杉磯報導】美國開放對中國公民旅遊簽證的磋商有望在年底出現結果,美國對中國冰封已久的國門將應聲而開。在經濟槓桿撬動下,美國為國家利益逐步調整姿態,華裔學者認為,開放中國公民旅遊對中、美雙方皆利大於弊。
據世界旅遊組織預測,2020年,中國公民將有一億人次出境旅遊,以每人平均消費一千美元計算,市場為一千億美元

截至2007年,向中國遊客開放旅遊的國家已增至132個,中國境內旅行社達672家。中國公民在海外的旅遊消費額每年超過160億美元 ,年出境旅遊人數逾三千萬人次。

面對如此巨大的利潤,美國旅遊業早已按捺不住,但政府冷酷的簽證程序阻斷美國業界垂涎此巨額市場的念頭。雖然如洛杉磯般的美國旅遊城市,試圖繞過簽證關卡,直接向中國市場發出邀請,但收效甚微。中美間交流只能以商務考察、留學、訪問學者等方式進行。

西方文理學院美國研究研究系主任尹曉煌稱,如果開放旅遊,將改善中美雙方的形象,並增進雙方相互瞭解,是利大於弊的好事。他說,中國資產在五百萬美元以上的富人階層,人數已趕上日本,中產階級也達三億人,相當於中國人口的25%左右,對開放赴美旅遊提供先機條件。

美國兩年前開始大打改善形象牌,不惜花費數億美元對全世界做公關,開放中美旅遊不僅暗合美國歷來傳播「民主自由思想」的宗旨,也有利於促進民眾彼此瞭解,改善美國在中國民眾中的形象。

尹曉煌表示,美國學習中文的人數已超過學日文的人數,中文熱的趨勢不可阻擋,也從側面揭示美國社會急切需要瞭解中國的社會與文化,開放旅遊無疑可推波助瀾。不過,所有對文化的接受都是以經濟實力做背書,此次開放也顯示中國經濟發展後,美國的策略改變。

洛杉磯州大傳播系教授白春生分析,美國打開中國公民旅遊簽證大門,壓力來自政治與經濟各界。中美貿易逆差數字連年攀升,旅遊業界不甘心讓每年上百億美元的中國公民出境遊大餅拱手讓給其他國家,因此對國會不斷施壓。

尹曉煌認為,開放旅遊是打破中美貿易僵局的方式。雖然中國有興趣購買高科技產品,但美國不賣,旅遊則可另闢蹊徑,更可減少中美貿易不平衡現象。

從中美雙方磋商過程可看出中國政府自信心提高,而美國對華不再有「洪水猛獸」的古老偏見。雙方都明白,個人之間的接觸必將減少誤解,增進友誼。

開放中國客觀光 華裔兩難
經濟「錢」景樂觀 但需靠旅客維持形象

【本報記者田霞洛杉磯報導】開放中國公民來美旅遊簽證,對美國的華裔社區宛如一把雙刃劍。雖然「錢」景頗樂觀,可讓華裔社區在經濟面獲得最直接的利益,但中國旅客「粗魯、有欠教養」的責難恐怕將聲聲入耳;如果「跳機」戲碼上演,非法移民增加,更會令華裔面子無光。
西方文理學院美國研究系主任尹曉煌說,他獲悉包括北京、上海、廣州與杭州等中國首批12座城市在此次開放旅遊簽證的名單中。這些「貴氣十足」的城市在美國的非法移民群體中人數較少。由於經濟發展較快,旅客荷包滿滿,甚至締造赴歐洲橫掃巴黎香榭麗舍精品店的驚人神話,他們的受歡迎程度令美國商家期待,因此他們應不是上演「跳機鬧劇」的人選。

擁有移民國度之稱的澳洲與紐西蘭(大陸稱新西蘭),早已對中國公民開放旅遊,但新聞罕見非法移民激增的報導。尹曉煌分析,這反映中國發達地區的民眾,有如當年的台灣、韓國與日本,對出國旅遊已漸存平常心,很多人更愛自己的家園,不會非法跳機。

中國現階段貧富分化,在股市與房市「金股齊鳴」中製造出大批富人,赴美旅遊的目的大多是為採購國際奢侈商品,甚至到海外投資,因此成為非法移民的機率不大,出現投資移民的機率反而可能增多。

中國遊客擁入也可能再次給在美華人烙上「永遠的外國人」的標誌。洛杉磯加大社會學系教授周敏認為,曾因膚色、語言障礙難以融入美國的華裔社區,更多中國人觀光客進來可能使更多移民感到「異鄉人」的尷尬。

一些中國遊客的不良習慣,諸如不為他人開門、餐廳內大聲喧嘩、過馬路不遵守紅綠燈等,會如影隨形與中國公民一同進入美國,再次成為美國人批評華人的話題。

另一影響是打開大門的美國,偷渡者今後不必搭貨櫃偷渡,買張機票抵達美國後跳機,就可實現美國夢。但周敏認為,根據過去三年中國公民赴歐洲旅遊的情形,中國人通過旅遊滯留外國不歸的問題不會太多。非法移民完全是中國的另一階層民眾,非中國經濟發展的弄潮兒,有意非法居留或偷渡者,不是有能力出國旅行的一類。

開放旅遊為非法移民提供捷徑的說法,洛杉磯州大傳播系教授白春生與上述兩位教授均不以為然。白春生認為,年底旅遊簽證即使開放,兩國也會採謹慎態度,押金、簽證配額都可能實施,一、兩年後,美方衡量其經濟影響、文化交流,才可能全面開放。(主新聞在A2)
