平日我很少行街買野﹐今天心血來潮去逛街看看﹐給我發現一間買國旗的專門店。這個專門店售買世界各國的國旗﹐百多個國家任君選擇﹐大中小不同尺寸也有。大慨主要買給這兒舉行的國際性會議作裝飾用﹐又或者買給中學生作地理功課。當然還有些像我這樣的散客﹐移民來加拿大定居﹐對出生地始終懷有一份感情﹐買支國旗支持一下祖國。三支細旗連旗座才不過十五塊錢﹐是既便宜又好看的裝飾品。最重要這三支旗﹐加拿大﹐香港﹐英國﹐對我有很特別的意義﹐因為我擁有這三個國家的護照。… [...] 
從鹽春島最高點俯瞰港灣 上星期給自己放了個長週未假期﹐乘兩個多小時船前往鹽春島(Salt Spring Island)渡假。鹽春島不是熱門的旅遊地點﹐除了當地悠閒的本土生活外﹐沒有什麼特別的名勝古蹟。遊客多數從卑詩省和華盛頓州過來﹐放鬆幾天逃避繁忙的生活﹐享受鄉間的寧靜﹐呼吸大自然的氣息。鹽春島人口只有一萬多人﹐沿著島上迂迴曲折兩邊古林參天的公路駕駛﹐從北邊到南邊約需一小時車程。我們選擇了一間民宿B&B入住﹐地點遠離島上唯一小鎮﹐價錢比較便宜也較清靜。客廳露臺面向小海港﹐可以一邊吃晚餐看日落﹐一邊欣賞海邊的景色。… [...] Today is the election of the BC provincial government. As a good citizen, I did caste my vote. Fortunately, the candidate I support had won the seat in my riding. I know nothing about the candidate himself before going to the voting station, nor… [...] |
