Alaska Cruise Log (4)

/a 放风了       放风,典出海上。相传很久很久以前,             一舟孤帆直             四望海天迟             不闻泥石味             起居似囚子 是说古时候,众人乘舟过海,远离海岸,身陷方舱如囚笼。一旦靠岸,顿作鸟兽散。即便是黔首发配之徒,亦可自行下船,是为放风(因锚地多为荒岛,不返船,则无生路矣)。       庄子天运篇云:... ... 放风而动,总德而立。陆德明注释曰:放,依也。依无为之风而动也。陈鼓应又注曰:放风,顺化也。顺化而行,故曰:放风而动。       朱之谓胡诌曰:放风总以立德为首。前人注庄子,似有避重就轻,趋易畏难之嫌也。然而,现实生活中,take it easy,已是惯性使然。比如说吧,昨天的放风,我这童心苕,便是典型的依无为之风而动。

    本次游轮,沿北美西海岸往北,已经在海上浪了三天,昨日午后两点,到达第一站,Juneau。  大家在船上关久了,都想下船放风。因当晚游轮又要继续北上,时间非常宝贵。待上岸后,游轮群三对公婆六张嘴,公说公事,婆讲婆理。有的说去Glacier National Park看冰川,有的说乘缆车上山看那啥,闹得不可开交。闹得我这童心苕,实在受不了,独自一人,扬长而去,不跟他们玩儿了!       其实,来到一个陌生的城市,我更喜欢逛街景。沿街那些别致的建筑、街头小品、街心花园、凡带有异域情趣的一草一木,都会让我留连往返。

/b Juneau     Let’s get a little known of Juneau, the first stop of this 10-day cruise voyage.     With an area of 3,255 sq-miles, Juneau is the largest municipality and the largest state capital in the US by area. The city was named after Joe Juneau, a gold prospector, back in the 17th century.     Today, Juneau becomes a famous and hot destination for tourism, especially for cruise ships. It is a town with ships more than houses, waterways more than streets, visitors more than locals, and bears more than humans (a bear per sq-mile).
