寻找春节前夕(1月28日)坐北欧航空晚上21点左右从哥本哈根到北京SK995航班上遇到的
住在奥斯陆的北京女生。当时你坐在中间排最右边的位子，我坐在你的左边。记得你说
你要回北京三个星期，还是年假用完后拼命加班加点东拼西凑才凑够的。当时我们聊了
很久，期间还向你借过手机照明找一些东西，你还讲过那套叫“窃听风暴”的电影，记
得吗？
那天从头到尾一直没有问过你的名字，也没有向你要联系方式。回家以后非常后悔。事
隔差不多有两个月了，不知道你是不是还有印象？这两个月来，我试过各种各样不同的
办法，但是始终没有任何的结果。毕竟什么资料都没有，就凭一些描述要在这个世界上
找一个人的机会是非常渺茫的。
非常怀念和你聊天的感觉，也非常希望能有机会再和你聊天。现附上当时写的一篇备忘
，里面有当时的一些细节，可能有助... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 11198 | 15 先去Sedona 看red rocks: I-17 走179，记得上Sedona Airport看整个Sedona的红石山
景色，Sedona很有艺术气息，可以在小镇上逛逛，吃午饭。
然后，沿着89A开过Oak Creak Canyon, 一路上风景不错，记得走过弯弯曲曲上山顶时
有个Mountain Vista，可以看整个山谷。
晚上可以在Flagstaff找旅馆住，很便宜。在Flagstaff，可以沿着89北去Sunset
Volcano Crater 看看火山遗迹（很新），但不能登顶到火山口。
40往东，有个巨大的陨石坑，Meteor Crater，票价15刀（印象中），值不值得看，看
个人的兴趣和budget，再往东有个化石国家公园，Petrified Forest National Park,
值得看。
这又是一天，可以再住Flastaff
第三天开车去大峡谷，一天。
第四天可以去Page，那边的景色很特殊，怎么玩，我还没去过。贴2张照片勾引一下：

beach and watch the Perseids meteor shower, which is from 8/9-14. We
typically go to Marconi beach, which has virtually no light but is safe with
a lot of people.
During the day, there's nothing very interesting to do besides going to a
beach, eating fried seafood, etc. |
