While I am writing this article, it is the last day of our trip in California, the 30th day of the trip. This is our annual family trip, which normally we chose destinations in Asia, for flight time not more than 4 hours. This was because we afraid the girls cannot bear long flights. So we usually go to Japan, a few times in Bangkok. We've been to Taipei a few times too.
當我寫這篇文章的時間,正正就是我們一個月的加州之旅的最後一天。這是我們家的年度旅行。以往由於害怕女兒們不能應付長途機,我們通常只會選擇日本作目的地。亦去過幾次泰國和台北。
We made up our mind to come here this year because we wanted the girls to experience different life style, something totally different from Asia cultures.
這次能下定決心到美國來,主要是希望她們能體驗一下跟亞洲完全不同的美式生活。
We hoped that they could be getting more used to English and have some improvement of this language because of this trip. My selfish wish was also to trigger my daughters' willingness to study harder so that they will be qualified for good schools here in future.
我希望她們能多習慣使用英文,從而增強英語能力。我亦自私的希望能提起女兒們對到外國留學的憧憬,從而自發的努力學習。
And of course, primarily this is still a trip for pleasure so we would like to enjoy sightseeing and good food as well.
當然還希望我們能有一個愉快的家庭旅行。
Based on what I see now, I believe we have achieved all of our goals for this trip. Cool!
我們亦基本上達到了所有期望。
So at the blink of going back to the reality, what would be your wish by now? It's very common for one to say : " I wish I could have another trip very soon!"
到了這旅程的最尾聲了,很快又要回到現實了。如果是你,會有什麼樣的期望呢? 我想很多人都會說是:「我希望很快就可以再次去旅行!」
Well, I have the same wish too. On top of this one, I have a few more :
- "I wish my daughters enjoy and learn from this trip!"
- "I wish my friends still consider us friends after the whole month of living together!"
- "I wish this post will be as rewarding as posts from
"
- and finally "I wish my job is still there after leaving my position for one whole month!"
我當然有一樣的期望。但除此之外,請容許我更貪心一點:
Please help me to pray for my wishes to come true.
Thank you very much.
請大家為我祈禱吧!多謝大家!
