去上海途中 / on our way to Shanghai


飛機餐對我來說有自由的味道,所以我從來不抱怨機上餐點不好吃。

     The plane meal tastes of freedom for me, so I never complain about the food quality. In fact, I have a thing for plane meals. 



        已經很久沒有坐在窗邊的位置了,想不到飛機下降的過程整個令我驚豔!根本來不及畫下來眼前所見的風景,只能用簡圖記錄,這卻是旅行中唯一的速寫機會。

     I haven't had a window seat for ages. That's why I am so impressed by what I see as the plane lands. I can hardly draw all the scenery, so I can only record it with simple sketches, which turn out to be the only ones I draw on this trip. 

        圖的順序就是在不同高度看到的景色。

     The pictures depict scenery I see at different heights. 



        上海長江口獨特的景色:好寬好黃的長江口上,散布著綠色沙洲。

     The unique view of Yangtze River mouth: Green islets dot the brownish-hellow river. 



        呈幾何圖形分布的道路和房子,還有岸邊的大船和工業用機械。

     As we get closer to the land, I see roads and houses in geometric shapes, along with the ships along the riverbanks and gigantic machines for industrial use. 



        大大的河面上,小小的船隻。

     Tiny rafts scatter on the vast river surface. 



        出了機場後,我們搭乘台商子女學校的橘黃色校車前往學校,走道塞滿了行李箱,很有在大陸旅行的感覺。

     The orangish yellow school buses of the Taiwan businessmen's school are waiting for us as we head out of the airport. Our suitcase literally cram the small bus, and it reminds me that we are no longer where we come from...
