一年一度的阿姆斯特丹光藝節又來了。今年的主題是“友誼”,跟往年一樣,有兩條路線:Water Colors和Illuminade。Water Colors為遊船路線,沿著運河佈置的光藝作品,較大型,有的需要坐船遊運河才能欣賞到精華。Illuminade為步行區,很集中,但展期較短。因為兩年都沒做到遊船,這次趁Groupon上有賣Amsterdam Boart Experience船票,兩人90分鐘,只需39歐元,而且能網路上定位,於是洋洋灑灑地買票定位,出發前才發現Illuminade的展期已經結束了。但沒關係,既來之則安之,隨緣吧!
[NL] Het is alweer het Amterdam Light Festival en het thema van de editie 2015-2016 is “friendship”. Zoals andere edities, er zijn twee routes om het festival te genieten: Water Colors en Illuminade. Water Colors is een vaarroute, waar de befaamde 17de-eeuwse grachten het decor vormt en die het best per boot te bekijken is, en Illuminade is een wandelroute, waar ruim 20 lichtkunstwerken in de cultuurrijke Weesper- en Plantagebuurt tonen. Voorheen zijn we al twee keer bij het festival geweest en hadden we de rondvaartboottocht nog niet gehad. Deze keer hebben we de tickets via Groupon gekocht en meteen een reservering gedaan bij Amsterdam Boart Experience. Voor het vertrek naar Amsterdam, wisten we pas dat Illuminade al voorbij is. Maar goed, we hebben toch een mooie rondvaart gehaald en een gezellige avond in Amsterdam.
[EN] It’s the Amsterdam Light Festival again. The theme of the edition 2015-2016 is “friendship”. There are two main routes to enjoy the beautiful sceneries of Amsterdam during this festival: Water Colors (boat route) and Illuminade (walking route). We missed the boat experience by last two editions, so this time we visited this festival again with a main purpose: take the canal cruise. We bought the ticket via Groupon and booked our boat tour by Amsterdam Boart Experience. Although the Illuminade route is ended already, we still have a wonderful evening in Amsterdam with the 90 minutes boat tour and a short walking along the canals.

【China。七彩雲南】20140726。摩梭傳統篝火晚會 Mosuo Traditional Bonfire Party
是晚,我們用了晚餐之後,就去參加當地的摩梭傳統篝火晚會。如今,篝火晚會成了收費的觀光表演節目,家家戶戶都派年輕人來參與表演,讓來瀘沽湖的遊客現場感受摩梭人的民俗風情。以前,篝火晚會是年輕男女開始走婚的途徑之一。在跳舞的當兒,阿哥可以趁著拉手的機會,輕摳心儀的阿妹的手心,阿妹若也有此意,就回摳阿哥的手心,晚會後,阿哥阿妹可以相約到阿妹的花樓談情說愛。現代的阿哥阿妹都有手機,要傳情通訊應該是比老一輩的人來得方便多了。
In the evening, we went to Mosuo bonfire party. This’s a party for single men en women, not only dancing and singing round the fire, but also to look for their partner. During dancing hand in hand together, a man would scratch the hand palm of a woman gently and secretly to send his message of love. If the woman likes the man too, she will return with the same sign. Then they would start to date and meet in evening at the woman’s room. Nowadays, everybody has their mobile phone in hand, so sending a sms or make a call would be more handy to express your feelings or to make an appointment. So, this traditional campfire party become a cultural activity to attract tourists.

在慶祝元旦的當兒,我們到烏特勒支欣賞中國花燈(官方網頁:點此)。這些來自四川自貢的大型花燈,照亮了烏特勒支大學的植物園區,吸引了非常多民眾來遊園。看了許多朋友分享的照片,我也興致勃勃,於是約了家公家婆一起去賞燈,順便讓兩老近距離接觸下花燈文化。
Chinese people celebrate the Lantern Festival at the first full moon of a Chinese new year. China Light Utrecht is an Chinese light festival that has been organised at the Botanic Gardens in de Uithof/Utrecht University (Official website: click here). I have been attracted by the photos of many friends, and decided to visit this festival with Bart and his parents during this new year holiday.

20140914。市場花園行動七十年紀念 Operation Market Garden (OMG2014)
市場花園行動(1944年9月17日至9月25日)是第二次世界大戰中盟軍所發動的一次作戰。此次作戰中的“市場行動”是史上最大規模的空降部隊奇襲,同時配合“花園行動”的地面裝甲部隊快速移動協同作戰,奪取荷蘭境內主要河川上仍由德軍控制的一系列橋樑,目標是藉此跨越萊茵河進入德國,以短時間內結束第二次世界大戰。在行動的第二天9月18日,恩荷芬就從納粹統治中解放。但此行動最後因無法攻陷位於安恆(Arnhem)的最後一座橋樑而宣告失敗,也因而荷蘭在萊茵河以北的地方在次年1945年3月底才從二戰中解放。今年是市場花園行動的七十年紀念,有大型的二戰軍車車隊遊行,由比利時的開始,依當年的戰役路線前進到Arnhem,在Brabant的遊行分成兩天進行,第一天9月14日,從Valkenswaard經Waalre,Eindhoven,Son到Veghel,然後9月20日從Veghel經Uden到Nijmegen。在遊行隊伍中還能看到一些當年勇戰納粹的盟軍(英國、美國、加拿大),如今白髮斑斑的高齡老人。(更多市場花園行動的歷史記載可參考維基,或紀念網頁www.rememberseptember44.com) Continue reading
