第一百四十天: 再見拉丁美洲…

Posted by 霏 her

4.5月來只坐過一程短途機 (巴拿馬城去卡塔赫納)，我沒意識地被長途巴士寵壞了 － 這 10句鐘的夜機對我來說過得很快，看完一齣戲後已沒有足夠時間睡個飽！加上座位向後傾斜度絕對不及舒適的巴士，我顯然有些不習慣。 Continued 繼續看…

第一百四十天: 巴西的一點一滴

Posted by 霏 her
巴西有太多東西要記下，若逐一小事寫下來會有點雜亂無章和累贅重複，故我以報告手法與大家分享當中點滴：

巴西女郎
有些失望，沒想像中的火辣，用健美來形容倒很貼切，一般都樣子甜美和很有 “肉地”，而且必備一個小肚子。大碼細碼的均毫不 Continued 繼續看…

Day 139: End of the Road – Latin America

Posted by 山 him
Rio de Janeiro seen from Corcovado
- the world’s most jaw droppingly gorgeous city

This is it. Our journey in Latin America has come to an epic end. Who would have thought we’d travel through Central and South America by land, with only a hopping flight between the two. We’ve clocked 450 hours of bus and boat time, covered 28,000 kilometers of gravel, dirt and asphalt (3 times the flying distance from Rio to London!), 17 border crossings and 14 countries. We made it – Mexico City to Panama City; Cartagena to Rio de Janeiro; 139 days, traversing from the sea level beaches of Nicaragua up to altitudes of 5,000m in the Andean plains of Bolivia, and back down to sea level again at the jaw dropping beaches of Brazil.

Day 136: World Cup on Copacabana

Posted by 山 him
When the Portuguese almost scored…
Brazil vs Portugal. A former colony confronting their former colonizers on the battlefield in South Africa. I had huge anticipation for the match and so did the rest of Rio. Out at Copacabana, the streets were a sea of yellow and green. Even dogs were dressed in Brazilian jerseys. Everybody sounded their horns as they headed for the beach. Continued 繼續看…

第一百三十五天: 最後一程南美長途巴士

Posted by 霏 her

中南美的最後一站

不說西班牙文的一站，我們忽然變成聾啞人士。

我和黃Glenn 都累透了

這最後一程南美長途巴士有些難捱，雖是全床位但我睡得不好，頭和肚子都很痛，加上前面的胖男一開車就把椅子拉到很後讓我的活動空間小之又小。23句鐘的旅程，可以快點過去嗎？

不過，我還是為著我們整個南美洲都只用水陸路去穿川過省而鼓舞。

將要到達全球最著名的沙灘享樂 (主要是視覺的，因為巴西女子出名火辣和性感)，我要投入盡興，我不要浪費這南美的最後主打!!!

Day 130: Uruguay on a run

Parillas of Mercado del Puerto in the capital of Uruguay

With a couple days to spare, we decided to add a few more passport stamps to our collection and pay Uruguay a whirlwind visit – a day in Colonia del Sacramento and a day in the capital Montevideo. Continued 繼續看…

第一百三十天: 烏拉圭

Posted by 霏 her

Colonia del Sacramento，非常別緻的沿海小鎮，17世紀末被葡萄牙佔領以走私到阿根廷首都布宜諾斯艾利斯 (Buenos Aires)，當時烏拉圭統治國西班牙反擊，往後二百年有英國加入戰團要踏足這小鎮要侵權。廿一世紀的今天，走進石板小巷，看到不少於澳門見過的葡萄牙式瓷磚門牌，白底藍花裙邊，很有風味；那邊廂馬路上盡是古典舊車，有殘破也有光鮮的，腦海即地閃過古巴哈瓦那 (Havanna) 的懷舊。此外，這小城有歐洲式的小橋流水，還有很童話的城門做背景，你要是誤會了自己置身在歐陸古裝片拍攝現場也絕不為過。 Continued 繼續看…
