Near and Along River Danube __ Daniel Ho (67)
Europe is the favorite tourism destination for my wife and me. In Europe, the sceneries are beautiful or charming, the cultures and tastes are long-established, and the architecture of ancient buildings is civilized and exquisite. During our latest trip to Europe, we visited the Czech Republic and took a river cruise on the River Danube. What we saw during the trip is eye-opening. I also picked up a few timbits of European history (at least legends if not bona fide history) from the local tour guides. Continue reading
《Evora, Portugal 》__ Rose Ho
Enjoy the shots I took in that trip by clicking the image.
What attracted me to Evora, a city 140 kilometers east of Lisbon, were the Chapel of Bones (human), the Cromlech and the church of tiles. They did not disappoint me. The ruins of the Diana Temple did…in terms of grandeur.
The Aqueduct was more than I expected…with it now being part of the city fabric in different forms. The roof-top of the Cathedral also provided a stunning view…both the roof itself and the panorama of the city below. It is a tour definitely not to be missed. But watch your tour hours. One cannot get in using the same ticket again after their lunch hour! Continue reading

《浮光掠影 — 北歐四國遊》__ 岑建成(71)
古語云：「人生如白駒過隙，倘不及時行樂，則老大徒傷悲也。」曹操.短歌行：「對酒當歌，人生幾何？譬如朝露，去日苦多。」所謂人生苦短，及時行樂不一定是消極的人生觀，而心靈快樂（例如到各地旅遊，觀賞風光名勝，體察風俗民情）就是真正快樂，選擇這樣的「樂」並且及時行之，以免枉度人生幾十年又何樂而不為呢？
五月下旬曾作北歐四國遊，出發前校長吩咐學生：「旅途見聞，若有所得，望能與各同學共享。」寫文章素來是學生的弱項，寫遊記更難討好，惟有東拉西扯，胡亂寫些瑣碎見聞充數，老師及同學們不要見怪。

Fettuccini and Clams
The hardest part of making this dish is to prevent the clams from overdone. Clams overcook can be rubbery and if undercooked, it tasted raw fish. The seafood broth has to be made first, clams add at the very last. Once it is done, toss the fettuccini with the sauce and serve immediately. It is a healthy dish and I could stay there and eat all day.
Pictorial Travelogue__Daniel Ho (67)
In October, Kate and I went on a European (Mediterranean) & Trans-Atlantic boat cruise on the new 142,000-ton Royal Princess. We stopped over at London, UK for two days before flying to Venice to board the ship.
In London, we took the ride at the London Eye which is a gigantic Ferrirs wheel in Central London.
