Returning to London, England for the rose hanami 2019/Carlos Pueblo
After the weekend river walk at Cambridge, England, I made a return to London, England for the rose hanami at at least three rose gardens in three royal parks of the city. Hanami is a Japanese vocabulary literally means see flowers in Kanji in Japanese culture for the cherry blossom in the spring. Now, I have expanded my hanami to several other flowers in different months while travelling around the world, like the peony, the dahlia, and roses, etc. I caught on the late summer roses at the Queen's garden and was determined to make it for the first blooming when the gardener told me to come back in a week. By this way, I skipped my march of the canals at Leeds, England and came here for the rose instead. There are three rose gardens, the Kensington Palace, the Hyde, and Queen Mary's, for me to visit simultaneously after this return.
Everyday, I enter the Kensington before 6:00 am to see the Palace Garden which has planted roses at the four corners. Turnips were still there after a week and the other lovely spring flowers designed by the royal gardeners. I walked across the round lake to visit my birds friends, mute geese, Canadian geese, ducks, pigeons, and sea gulls, etc. Passing through the Lake Serpentine, I followed the horse track the Hyde Park Rose Garden. Almost every morning, I run into the morning drill of the Queen's horse guards and some girls riders morning practice. On my way back to my hostel, I selected another route along the Serpentine, to visit my two parakeets by the boat rental or the morning swimmers on the other side of the lake, the Serpentine Lido. The Princess Diana's Memorial is just next to it with a small rose pad.
After the free breakfast, I found a short cut through these two huge parks by directly walk across by two diagonals to exit the Gate Marble Arch and enter streets of London. The Regent's Park is about two miles away. This is the prestige area of London full of business and great buildings, the pride of the British Empire. I get used to the direction of the Park and easily find my destination. The Queen's Garden is quite a size about 20% bloom for the first week. There is also a lake at the park with a wild life sanctuary and also for boating. There is a Japanese Garden sit between the Regent's University and the Rose Garden.
Usually, I was tired after such a long day of marching, I would take a nap at the bench on the path by the lake with a large green field of lovely lawn with small while flowers spread on it like snow flake.

再回英國倫敦賞花 2019/莊峻華
再回英國倫敦賞花 2019/莊峻華
結束週末英國劍橋行，再回英國倫敦賞花，北部里治市運河行，可以暫緩，玫瑰花季難逢，這是我之經驗，多次來到倫敦攝政王公園，都未遇上玫瑰花，僅在去年夏殘日，蘇格蘭行，專程拜望瑪麗女皇玫瑰花園之，夏日最後玫瑰，女皇花園，座落於攝政王公園內，非常美麗，甚具規模。每日行軍路線一致，早上六時前準時進入，堪新頓公園，參觀堪新頓宮花園，與圓湖白天鵝打招乎，沿馬徑走到海德公園之，玫瑰花園，這時候正是女皇羽林軍晨操時，也有一些騎飾少女溜馬，非常雄偉壯觀。
回程特別經過一湖，沿湖岸走道，欣賞湖上諸鳥類，尤其一對綠色鸚鵡，棲息於租船塢旁一白楊樹，樹幹上有啄木鳥啄成洞穴，湖對岸有健者老人晨泳，旁邊是黛安娜王妃紀念場，也有花園佈置，有時候我會經過義大利花園，然後出堪新頓公園，回客棧趕上八時，簡單免費早餐。
前週行軍到攝政王公園，初經海德公園周圍，像是海德講台等，再回倫敦後，我就識途穿過堪新頓和海德兩對角步徑，直達大理石門，白金漢宮增建擴充時，將其宮門移到海德公園，走出門就是京城鬧區，攝政王公園附近建築，已是大英帝國之風貌。前週我沿園內湖岸，走出公園到運河行軍，這次在湖橋過湖，瑪麗女皇花園，就在東方花園，其實就是日本小橋古塔流水，皇家攝政王大學緊鄰，皇家醫學院校園，也在公園內。
入攝政王園內之鬱金香花園仍在季節中，這是意外收穫，整個玫瑰花園，約有五分之一花開，我有兩相機，交互拍攝，皇家園丁和倫敦氣候，培養出絕色美景，我想改變行程值得，反正英國運河，四季均可拜訪，玫瑰花是有季節。
全球旅行多年中，最為愉快者，莫甚於這些愛美城市之花園，令人心平氣和，真正暫拋煩腦，欣賞美艷花朵，永遠可以等待下一花季。

The third day returning to NYC 2019/Carlos Pueblo
The third day returning to NYC 2019/Carlos Pueblo
Bushwick is at Brooklyn where I visit each time in New York City. Patrick has a real estate office here. I have known him at a suburban of Allentown, Pennsylvania in a political meeting in 1978. I noticed his vocal character and ran into him again at their group visit at our Houston credit union some 20 years later. Since then, I always request to visit him on each of my NYC trip. He took me to tour the High Line Park in Chelsea at its beginning, Williamsburg at Brooklyn after its re-innovation, etc. This time, he would like to indicate the change of Bushwick in a way I felt like Williamsburg and not yet completed, an artist's town indeed. There is a small set up of rooms up stair at his office to provide short time stay for Taiwanese and Chinese artists while at their NYC visits.
I followed his direction to tackle three subway lines to reach Myrtle Wyckoff Aves Station. It was raining and a kind local lady on the train insisted seeing me take a right direction after getting off the train. Pat came to meet me in front of his office and we walked several blocks at the area and took some pictures. It really reminds me of the scenery of Williamsburg. What he says is the French word of Gentrification, a movement of residents from the suburban back to the old city. I believe that the phenomena is also involving traffic, middle class, and the improvement of the public safety, etc. I have seen this in Austin and Houston, Texas. The Bushwick improvement is not quite completed yet just started while Williamsburg is more established with even the new adventure of water taxi to replace he old ferry in crossing river traffic.
I was not carefully restrict my admiration of Dr. Ko Wen-jer, the Mayor of Taipei whom he dislikes. I have to end the visit abruptly, and also due to the rain. Taiwan is an unique country in the world. I wish that I can compare the situation to some other nations. Taiwan is still a colony of a token nation of the Republic of China which has been toppled by the Communist China since 1949. Taiwan is one of the few former colonial territory coming out or not quite as a better off situation. Taiwan is still facing the threat of been annexed by China.

紐約市第三日 2019/莊峻華
紐約市第三日 2019/莊峻華
抵紐約市第三日，按計劃拜訪在布魯克林，布希維克之再添兄，認識再添已有43年之歷史，我還憶得在賓州之艾倫鎮市郊外，那是一會議，很多故事，可以回憶，後來再添搬到紐約，一日，我在休市同鄉會館，巧遇再添兄嫂參觀合作社，他不一定憶得我為何人？但我仍憶得初見耳聞軼事，交換通訊資料後，我每到紐約，必定拜望，他從事房地產事業，在布希維克有一辦公室，辦公室樓上，有一客棧，提供台灣和中國藝術家，旅行紐約住宿場所，我因非藝術人，無法租宿，但拙作布魯克林藝棧，是有些人點閱。
這一天不巧天雨，但無法減少我內心之興奮，尤其在地鐵上，遇見一位善心女士，也在墨妥懷克奧夫大道站下車，肯定我知方向後始離去。我連絡上再添，他就領我參觀這改變新面貌之布希維克，他說已經是一藝術家聚落處，這和過去他曾領我參觀過之，布魯克林威廉斯堡很像，他說是，然後提到一法語字，間特利菲開新，就是市郊人回流市內之現象，再添是讀書人，講話談吐，毫無贅言，他亦領我參觀高線公園，就是舊芝加哥運牲蓄火車線改裝初期，在卻爾希，當年連永祥都無閒參觀，我在網誌得知，台北柯市長來訪，台灣同鄉領他參觀，最近高線公園盡端之哈德遜停車場計劃竣工，五座台北101規模之高樓大廈，令人嘆為觀止。
我不小心，提到我欣賞柯市長，引起再添之強烈不滿，於是我匆匆告辭，他追究我長年追求台灣獨立運動，如何支持柯？於是我從柯之台大醫科出身開始說起，他心有成見，我不便多言，幸好台灣民意，傾向獨立自主，脫離中華民國殖民地統治之現況，可能在我們生前，得以實現。

Cruising back to the Hubbard Glacier, Alaska and Yukon/Carlos Pueblo
Cruising back to the Hubbard Glacier, Alaska and Yukon/Carlos Pueblo
We left Seward, Alaska in the afternoon cruising back to the Hubbard Glacier seated between Alaska and Yukon Territory of Canada we visited a day before. It is the largest tidewater glacier in the North America, named after a former president of the Bell Company. It is appeared blue and dirt yellow due to the light reflection during the day and the dirt carried down from the top of the mountain. I was sitting at an Italian Restaurant for a steak dinner with my adopted daughter, Jingle from Manila. We had to lower the window shade to avoid direct sunset after 9 pm, sunrise at 4:05 a and sunset at 10:55 p in this area of the world. We arrived early in the next morning into a bay moving toward the gigantic glacier through various little ones along the way.
First, the moisture from the Pacific and the North Pole moving to the mountains of the area and deposit snow and ice precipitation on the top to form the white color cap, a form of glacier. Throughout the year, the solid form of water comes down to the foot of the mountain via the valley to form glacier while the melted snow flying down from the top to the bottom called waterfall. We can see all kinds of snow white water fall as well as still frozen glacier. After the global warming, the glacier retreated and an inlet formed gradually becomes a bay. It is amazing to ride with a huge cruise ship to sail through this world miracle. It is very different feeling in compare with the bullet train riding through Hokaido, Japan in the winter. Cruising through Alaska glaciers is more relax and joyful.
I had had three leather jackets available this time, two for fashions and one for wear and tear purposes. Along with my fellow passengers, I stood out on deck 7 for the view of wild animals, sea lions lay on the fragment iceberg and brown bears running on the beach far away, etc. The huge glacier is really blue indeed and dirty brown on side. The Captain was very thoughtful to move around the ship in order to let all passengers to have their complete view of the scenery. We could see the spread icebergs all over on the surface of the bay. On our way out of the bay, I still attempted to catch the beautiful snow cap of the mountains. I must admit that I am still not able to manage my cameras facing the bright light reflection.

重返阿拉斯加胡巴特冰洲 2019/莊峻華
重返阿拉斯加哈巴特冰洲 2019/莊峻華
船離蘇握港，黃昏南下，重返阿州哈巴特冰洲，此晚，經核准與愛女金葛在她服務之義大利餐廳晚餐，這是船行招待劵，一次航行，我可以邀請兩位伴侶，兩次餐廳用餐，一般我都邀請愛女共餐，難得老來有艷福，這些美女也非常期待，甚至提前定位，這是我屢次郵輪旅行，最為愉快之活動，平常決定後，就是安排時間，郵輪餐廳等，工作繁忙。翌晨，我們就抵達兩日前之哈巴特冰洲，是北美規模最大，1350平方哩，約八分之一之台灣大，說是跨美加兩國，然手上國家公園圖，找不到位置，然此冰洲為此船行鍾愛，我來過五次。
船長緩慢之駛入海灣，兩岸都是懸崖峭壁，近處雪白瀑布，從天上飛奔下來，稍遠處山谷，可見積雪堵塞，就是定義下之冰洲，哈巴特在遠端盡處，冰洲反光呈藍色，積雪融化，夾帶泥沙，到海灣呈土色，搭乘郵輪，舒適穩當，不是一般路地或空中旅行，差可比擬。甲板上偶有歡呼，不外是發現野生動物，海獅趴在冰塊上，或是岸上奔跑之野熊，如此冰天凍地，生物真難生村。
每座大小冰洲，均已命名，這座冰洲以前貝爾公司總裁命名，我看國家公園圖上，有很多熟悉之明人，像約翰霍普金斯，冰洲委縮，開始形成入口，擴大成海灣，容許巨型郵輪出入，我甚喜如此方便之絕跡景觀旅行，船長很體貼之將巨船，繞上一圈，讓乘客飽賞每一角度，遠處大小冰洲，和雪白山頂，也是冰洲定義之一，積雪盈年不融。
這次，我攜帶三件皮夾克，應付春日天寒，其實多慮，春天美加兩國，花開甚美。

Re-visiting Cambridge, England 2019/Carlos Pueblo
Re-visiting Cambridge, England 2019/Carlos Pueblo
Cambridge is located on the north of London and also as famous as Oxford for its University in the world of education. I came back to visit for its canal and river transportation which was recommended in Manchester by a well learned train conductor. I found the same river bank full of tourists floating on the river by a single man power boat with a stick. The scenery has been very famous in the spoken Mandarin literature by a known writer, the shadow of Cambridge. Many locals tell me that the waterway is not a canal yet a genuine river of a size larger than a canal. I did find ditches abandoned along the river. On the way back to my hostel, I passed by an area with regular architecture and the department of Chemistry of the University.
I went back to the same river bank to continue my march of the river; however, the pedestrian path was blocked by a women's college by a stone bridge. I didn't want to join a boat tour and turned away from the river instead. It was Sunday and college streets became active. A student directed me to some alley in a corner to find a hand written sign back to the river in order to by pass the campus and continued my march down stream. It is a lovely campus of the same college that blocks the path. A garden with pretty flowers is by a stone bridge with a girl student reading on a bench facing the river. I walked across the bridge and found back my memory of the previous visit, a flowering cherry grove on the opposite side of the bank. I have to walk along the edge of a green field with some horses in order to be back on track. There is another college with classical architecture, towering main building and church. The river flows back to a city center full of people either shopping or taking boat tours.
Continue marching along with rowing boats, I find that rowing is popular in England. There are many rowing clubs by the banks of both sides to store boats. A city park is by the side of the path with a toilet for use. I was on my way out of the city in a field to the suburban and people were walking on the field back and forth between that city center and their residential area behind the field. Their colorful outfits reminds me my old days of coming home for Lunar New Year vacation at my home town at the southern part of Taiwan. I continued walking until a corner of two streams concurrent. On my way back to the city center, I saw parents teaching small girls riding a big horse.
Cambridge city center is not hat large and easily accessed. I found the old food courts square and ordered a Japanese plate for my late lunch. The city was full of tourists during the weekend like Oxford, full of the admirers of the world.
