April 4th, 2008[功夫原创+精美照片]美国加州的Hearst Castle(摄于2001年6月13日)
照片是我2001年夏天去加州玩的时候拍的。隔壁98里面有sandy_rose最近去加州的一些照片。这里的Hearst Castle作为补充。
FYI:
In 1865, George Hearst, a wealthy miner, purchased 40,000 acres of ranchland that included the Mexican Ranchos of Piedra Blanca, San Simeon and Santa Rosa. In 1919, his only son, William Randolph Hearst, inherited the land from his mother, Phoebe Apperson Hearst. By then the ranch had grown to encompass 250,000 acres. Originally nicknamed “Camp Hill,” its wilderness offered a place for family members and friends to “rough it” on camping trips. While the arrangements for these trips were elaborate, with separate sleeping and dining tents, they would not satisfy Hearst for long. In 1919, his instructions to famed San Francisco architect Julia Morgan were simple, “…Miss Morgan, we are tired of camping out in the open at the ranch in San Simeon and I would like to build a little something…”
Hearst and Morgan’s collaboration was destined to become one of the world’s greatest showplaces. As they were planning and constructing his dream home, Hearst renamed the rocky perch from which it rose “La Cuesta Encantada”–– The Enchanted Hill. By 1947, Hearst and Morgan had created an estate of 165 rooms and 127 acres of gardens, terraces, pools and walkways.
The estate’s magnificent main house, “Casa Grande,” and three guesthouses are of Mediterranean Revival style, with the imposing towers of Casa Grande being inspired by a Spanish cathedral. The blending of the architectural style with the surrounding land, and Hearst’s superb European and Mediterranean art collections, was so seamless that world-renowned architectural historian, Lord John Julius Norwich, was moved to say that “Hearst Castle is a palace in every sense of the word.”

标题:照我看,什么时候你的腿瘸了眼睛花了你才会安定下来,要不你始终都是处于玩妞不泡妞的状况。

标题:[小九九]中国女人只是性解放了,心灵还没解放。所以你的理想状况出现几率很低。
女人旅游,是真的欣赏大自然还是对生活的逃避呢?
要我看,目前中国女人多数是为了逃避生活才去旅游。
玩妞就是大家热闹一下,然后留个回忆就算了。
泡妞的结果是跟你一起旅游,玩出火花来,想要现实生活了,就不想去旅游了。
结论,当你的玩心不死,基本上只能玩妞不能泡妞。
