今天是在ORLANDO的最后一天了，晚上还要赶去迈阿密北边的FT. LAUDERDALE. 先去玩SEA
WORLD。从KISSIMMEE的旅馆去SEA WORLD也很方便，顺着I-4向北开，看到SEA WORLD的指
示牌就很快到了，估计十几分钟的样子。我们9点准时在开门前就来到了。前几天实在是
玩得太累了，今天可得悠着点，晚上还有两百多迈的路等着我呢。来之前已经在SEAWORLD
的网上搜过了，想去哪都想好了，先搞一份地图加时间表，记划一下。SEAWORLD对我们来
说主要是看动物SHOW，至于参观各种动物馆那可以串插着来，当然有小孩就不一样了，没
准在海豚馆就能呆上半天。至于动物表演，有些一天只演一场，有些两场，所以最好计划
一下。看看海狮表演10点开演，先去看它。路上正好有TURTLE POINT可以看看龟，
PENGUIN ENCOUNTER 看看企鹅，感觉企鹅没有印象中那么干净，肚皮不是很白，但还是憨
态可拘的。看到JOURNEY TO ATLANTIS 了，也是激流涌进类型的，时间不够了，加上最后

同行的两人临时由于其他事情，只好我单独行动。还好里面景点比较多，一个人更机动
些。虽然没有拿到游览图，但一路走过去，基本上所有海洋动物参观点没有落下，只是
对定点表演的动物秀没有充分准备。可以说去sea world就是去看秀，里面的Shamu (
killer whale) 表演，海豚与鲸鱼表演，海豹，海狮与海盗表演，宠物阿猫阿狗表演及
亲身体验北极探险算是里面的精髓部分，当然如果你对海洋动物，佛州特色动物感冒的
话，这也是一个理想之所。对了每人都有机会第二次免费游园的机会，幸亏我排队换了
票，这样第三天上午我有机会和同行的假夫妻又逛了一圈，我也充当了一回导游的角色
，领他们只看了我上面提及的精彩动物表演，因为按照计划第三天我们应该在disney

由于另外从LSU赶去的同学没能及时与我们碰头，我们就临时决定去了Epcot，将最精彩
的Magic Kingdom作为保留节目以便与他们共赏，这是后话。为了赶时间我们第三天一

上午去了Rumbo Sur公司的Beagel Channel tour, 从hotel book的。Ushuaia很多travel
agencies, 各种各样的tour，几个经典的似乎大同小异。个人感觉Beagle Channel tour作为
Ushuaia的第一个tour很合适，half-day, 带着你sail on the Beagle Channel, 船上导

发帖数: 1 | 7 一家三口自助奥兰多+游轮归来，给即将前往此条线路的朋友们提供一些小贴士：
关于迪士尼：
1.奥兰多整个城市就是一景区，365天人满为患，作为游客，你可不要指望什么时候能
赶上淡季。所以奥兰多的交通自然拥堵，尤其在靠近几大景区的路段，车辆永远属于缓
行。再加上奥兰多天气多变，就连天气预报也一日几变，所以，到奥兰多旅游最大的期
望就是——不要下雨。一来各种乐园无法正常游玩，二来整个城市会因下雨变成停车场
。好在各种园子的门票不限制日期，建议见机行事，并且每天前往公园提早出发。住宿
的话，尽量住在奥兰多以西南，包括clermont 地区，既离景点近，也可以避开一些市
区堵车路段。如果是土豪，可以住在迪士尼酒店。
2.游玩迪士尼，要根据自己的行程和体力选择门票。如果有老有小，选择两天以上的门
票都是不明智的。要知道你在迪士尼的一天要花上N个小时在排队。迪士尼营业时间到
晚上11点，住迪士尼酒店还可以“加时赛”……门票也可以在四个主题乐园里面选择，
如果有余力，可以选择两天游玩两个园。不过为了节省体力，你可能会错过晚上9点或
者10点的精彩表演。尤其是烟火表演。奥兰多有很多打折的迪士尼门票，分布... 阅读全帖 |

发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Wed Jan 13 09:31:50 2016, 美东)
人生其实是生活在the perception of world and the real world 两个世界之中，
perception 这词没有合适的中文可替代。 我相信真正的智者就是在不断地追求缩小两
者之间的差距。读书太多而不思考，上述这两个世界会冲突得历害，不读书，不去了解
别人perception of world , 不够smart.
很多被洗脑的人就是用自己的世界去统治别人的世界，如父母版的那些斗士，而且都是
冠以最“善良美好”的目标。
追求真理，就是驾着上面那两匹马去探索未知世界。
真正的快乐就是：you feel good about yourself. 这句话不能翻译成中文。所以，如
果高考取消英文，这是中国历史的倒退，因为一门语言是一个世界。 |

多大几率？
大概需要什么样的准备呢？
具体地说：
1. research area：除了development,做finance中哪些topic比较相关呢？
2. intern：之前需要做些什么类型的实习比较好？
3. transcript:课程成绩，会有人看么？
4. recommendation letter：什么样的推荐信比较有用？
另外：
1. World bank之类的政策性机构的Life style是不是比较boring（相比于private
sector）？中国人在里面除了单纯做研究，是不是很难发展？
2. 相比于30名左右学校的faculty职位，是不是world bank, asian development bank
