这是“加州旅馆" 里的一句。这首Eagles的1977年代表作充满离奇的迷幻色彩，似梦而非梦。是我最喜欢的，夏天开车时必放。 www.6park.com

最近俩个月中，有三个星期被派往硅谷。所以有机会细细品味Eagles所描绘的加州旅馆。 www.6park.com

临行前，叫了Limon。比叫出租车不贵。一般是林肯。开车的美国白人都衣冠楚楚，比出租车司机体面多了。 www.6park.com
车来了，停在家门口，就这么停着，司机也不来敲门，一直等到客人出来。当然，小费没少给他。 www.6park.com

福特的野马曾被誉为穷人的跑车。1964年四月17日上市，一天就售出2万2千辆，头两年售出100万辆。是美国唯一的一款至今还在热销的肌肉车。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
野马外形特点是前鼻长，后车厢短。 我租的这款是6缸，自动。 www.6park.com
这车马力强劲，轻点油门，车子就窜了出去，轮胎发出刺耳的尖叫。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
所见过的车标当中，野马车标也是我最喜欢的。一股狂放不羁的劲头。 www.6park.com

加州的天气非常宜人，都8月天了，早晚要穿春秋衫。 中午阳光明媚。 www.6park.com
特意下榻在离中餐馆很近的地方。一早就过来喝豆浆。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
大饼油条在国内大街小巷随处可吃，在海外，却是稀罕物。 www.6park.com
由于我对食物顽固不化的任性和不可理喻的偏见，一直接纳不了卖当劳直流。 www.6park.com
每每想起科大东区食堂的豆腐脑儿加辣油，就有不可遏制的剧烈的哈喇子分泌活动。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
这家早点很多，实惠。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
要了一根油条，有胳膊粗。。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
一碗豆腐脑儿，使劲望里加了几勺辣油。 www.6park.com
就是豆腐脑儿有点起泡，就这样，已经很解馋了。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
又要了一笼小笼包子。。 www.6park.com
心里美丽得像回到的桃花盛开的地方。 www.6park.com

没办法，牙好，胃口就好，吃嘛嘛香。。 www.6park.com

这是位于硅谷的一家小公司，来此出公差。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
跑车有个麻烦的地方，就是车身矮，进出不太方便。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
没想道，中午去吃饭的路上，无意中拍到了雅虎公司总部大楼。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
我去接洽的这家公司，目前名不见经传，过俩年就会名噪一时。具体作什么的，保密。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
出差很累，白天进公司，天黑才能出来。 www.6park.com
这天下午，公司有好事者发现有煤气泄漏， 报了警， 大家兴高采烈地撤离。 www.6park.com
我于是一溜烟地驱车到了斯坦福大学。 www.6park.com

以上的建筑物都是斯坦福大学的教学实验楼。绵绵半英里，处处是景。Half Mile Walk 由此而来。 www.6park.com
还是我的野马，则么看怎么又个性。 www.6park.com
野人开野马。 www.6park.com

合肥人常说穷家富路，何况是公司报销。 www.6park.com
所以我每晚必须老老实实地不折不扣地解决温饱问题。 www.6park.com
这次选一家海鲜店。。 www.6park.com

 www.6park.com
门口的招牌很吸引人，我进去直接点了 鲟鱼二食，18块9毛9 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
店里还算干净，食客各顾各地吃着喝着。。我还在捉摸着双旗镇刀客的一些场景。。差点儿喊出：小二，快，给爷切二斤牛肉，一壶上好的烧酒。 www.6park.com
不料，waitress 看我孤身一人，把我让到靠墙角的一个小桌子边。。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
操着广东腔的waitress 记下我要的菜，忙去了。。 www.6park.com
我寻思着她长得像谁，对，像汪明荃， 店里的音响放着 万水千山总是情 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
所谓鲟鱼二食，就是一条鱼两种做法。 www.6park.com
先上来一大碗鱼头汤，加芥菜。。 不错 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
又上一碟炒鱼片， 送上一盆饭。这就齐了。 www.6park.com

由于工作很忙，没有多少时间去游山玩水。很多时候，只有在下班后太阳下山前的两个小时内开车去兜风。 www.6park.com
加州的天气非常不错，八月份的天气，早晚凉爽，中午也不超过30多。地形上，由于处在太平洋板块和北美大陆块的俯冲带上，在靠近海滨的西部有一狭长的褶皱山脉。 www.6park.com
在这样的山区开车，坡度和弯度都很大。起初，非常不习惯，后来慢慢习惯了弯度，学会以加速而不是减速去拐弯。但是对坡度还是不习惯。10年前去三番市开车玩过，后来，一提三番我就小腿肚子抽筋。三番的直上直下的街道让人心中发毛。 www.6park.com
这天，下班。打听好了半月湾的方向，我就驱车赶了过去。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
穿过山区的时候，看到跨过山坡的高架桥。。。心里暗自称奇。。。 www.6park.com
。。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
七曲八乖赶到半月湾，天也快黑了。。 www.6park.com
匆匆按了几张，就接着往回赶。一想到那段九曲山路，就猛喝了几口矿泉水。 www.6park.com
。。 www.6park.com
九曲山路，一面是悬崖，一面是对面俯冲过来的车辆。。。 www.6park.com
可惜，没有拍摄下来 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
半月湾 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
有人在烧烤。 www.6park.com
海风吹过来，凉飕飕的。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
轮子上的旅馆。。 www.6park.com
“别了，温哥华" 里陆大洪和未婚妻开的小咖啡馆就在这样的车上。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
从半月湾往会赶的路上，误入一山路。 www.6park.com
云雾围拢过来，能见度很低。等霞曦透过的时候，看清楚这一段湾区。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
在加州的最后一晚，第二天还车前，要给车加满油 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
跑了半天山路，晚上好好搓一顿吧。 www.6park.com
看中这家潮州餐馆，就推门进去。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
要了两个菜，牛筋鸭掌煲。。 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
和韭菜豆干炒咸肉 www.6park.com
 www.6park.com
当然，一瓶青岛助兴。是啊，一个人吃饭，更需要好酒来助兴 www.6park.com
喝了一口冰凉的啤酒，耳边好像又听到老鹰乐队的这首歌：
“。。。 So I called up the captain
Please bring me my wine
He said "We haven't had that spirit here since 1969" www.6park.com
--- “于是我喊了领班，给我上酒，领班说：我们早就无此酒，自1969" ---- www.6park.com

On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
The warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night www.6park.com
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be heaven or this could be hell
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say www.6park.com
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
There's plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here www.6park.com
Her mind is definitely twisted
She's got her Mercedes Benz
She's got a lotta pretty, pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget www.6park.com
So I called up the captain
Please bring me my wine
He said "We haven't had that spirit here since 1969"
And still those voices they're calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say www.6park.com
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis www.6park.com
Mirrors on the ceilling, the pink champaign on ice
And she said "We are all just prisoners here of our own device"
In the masters chambers they're gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knifes but they just can't kill the beast www.6park.com
Last thing I remember, I was runnin' for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
"Good night" said the night man "We are programmed to receive
You can check out anyytime you like, but you can never leave" www.6park.com
