引子 ?2017年12月,姐妹仨从北京和纽约前后脚儿地去了新西兰的首都惠灵顿,和在那里居住的另一个姐妹相聚。 在惠灵顿期间,每一天睁开眼睛就有一番新的感觉,不是火红的朝阳从山背后升起,就是满天绚丽的霞云漂浮;即使是雨天、阴天,整个城市都在变化着色彩;到了傍晚,遥望远山、近海,出现的是另一种异样的画卷。惠灵顿小城不大,却有魅力,天天外出,从没有过腻烦。 我们把亲身体验写成了这本旅游记,让更多的人们知道和了解这个世界上酷小首都和宜居的城市惠灵顿,同时,邀请大家来小城观光与小住,看一看小城的经典文化,品一品小城的祥和环境和舒适生活,体验一下小城的诸多趣事。 ? 胡英子(纽约)??????????? 苏珊(惠灵顿) ?? Introduction ? In December 2017, three sisters travelled to Wellington, New Zealand’s capital, from Beijing and New York to meet another sister living in Wellington. ?During the time in Wellington, from opening our eyes in the morning to going to bed in the evening, we four sisters enjoyed the culture life and took in the sights and sounds of the small, but charming city. ?In the morning, the bright red sun rose from behind the mountains, with the beautiful clouds flowing in the sky. In the evening, the dusky mountains and the calm sea, showed another her kind of scenery. ?Even on rainy days, rather than stay inside, Wellies, as the folks here call themselves, still chose to enjoy the all the city has to offer.? We went out every day, but never got tired of the city. ?We have chosen to share our experience in order to let people know and understand the coolest little capital and the most liveable city in the world. ?We hope you can come to Wellington, spend a few days sightseeing and explore the Welly life. ?
