Tickets to tour Lincoln to go fast [img=images/image_20050704_everett1.jpg popup=false] [img=images/personal_DDG-86Shoup.jpg popup=false] CVN-72 (USS Abraham Lincoln) 和 DDG-86 USS Shoup, 將於七月四日開放參觀. 不過開放時間是從正午至下午五點, 每個小時一次. 為了平息兩年前開放時的瘋狂的擁擠狀態. 今年將在 Everett 海軍基地入口處分發上船的參觀卷(安全因素, 限八歲以上的人), 以控制人數. 參觀卷發完為止. Navel Station Everett 將於當日十一點起開放讓民眾進入. 不過基地內是禁止一般民眾的車輛進入, 基地外的停車場也不大. 因此根據往年經驗 Everett Transit 會提供往返基地和 Everett Station 的接駁巴士.
越來越多華人了…
Snohomish County 的華人似乎越來越多了. 剛來這個郡的時候, 聽到的亞洲人說話, 大多是說日文. 五六年前, 韓文開始氾濫. 對不起, 文字的敘述不好. 我的意思是說, 說韓文的人似乎就在幾個月之內, 隨處可聽到. 速度之快, 令人吃驚. 可能和說韓文的人, 有集中性的居住有關. 從去年開始, 聽到說華文的機會慢慢的增加了. 不習慣這種感覺. 總覺得似乎是到了南加州才有的現象. 我想還是要慢慢的習慣的.
