　　这本英国人写的游记，作者宣称里头发生的事情「全是真的」：

＊「一堆年轻人，欧洲人也好、美国人也好，都梦想着要去加州。」
Lots of young people, Europeans as well as Americans, dreamed of going to California.（第1站）

＊「这种生活真是美好，白天做日光浴，晚上猎食兼玩乐！我下辈子想投胎到加拉巴哥群岛，当一只鬣蜥。」
What a nice life, sunbathing in the daytime then hunting and playing at night! I’d like to be a Galapagos iguana in my next life.（第3站）

＊ 「当你身处于开发中国家时，可能会接到许多请求，甚至是看起来很有钱的中产阶级也可能向你开口，也许是借钱，也许是投资一笔「稳赚不赔」的生意。而最好的回答，就是「谢啦，但是，不用了！」
When you’re in a developing country, you may get many requests, even from quite rich-looking middle-class people, to borrow money or invest in a business “which can’t fail.’ The best answer is, “Thank you, but NO THANK YOU!”（第6站）

＊「敬我们的美好将来。」贝蒂˙威廉斯用她的香槟杯与我碰杯庆祝，她是香港最有钱的一位女富豪。我不太懂她说的「将来」，指的是我成为她员工的那个将来，还是指我变成她男友的那种将来！她比我大上三十岁，对她来说似乎不成问题，...但对我来说却是啊！
“To our happy future.” Betty Williams, one of the richest women in Hong Kong clinked her champagne glass against mine. I could not understand whether the “future’ meant a future as one of her workers or a future as a boyfriend! The fact that she was thirty years older than me didn’t seem to trouble her, ... but it troubled me!（第7站）

＊亚洲最大、最炫、生意最好的海滨胜地在哪里？就在泰国湾的芭达雅。那儿跟赌城拉斯维加斯一样，二十四小时都有得玩。露天大型啤酒屋挤满了来自世界各地的顾客：德国人、法国人、瑞士人、美国人等等，但没有泰国人。
Where is Asia’s biggest, brightest and most crowded seaside resort? It’s crazy Pattaya on the Gulf of Thailand. Like Las Vegas, the fun goes on non-stop for twenty-four hours a day. Huge open-air beer halls are crowded with customers from all over the world: Germans, French, Swiss, Americans, etc., but NOT Thais.（第17站）

“To our happy future.” Betty Williams, one of the richest women in Hong Kong clinked her champagne glass against mine. I could not understand whether the “future’ meant a future as one of her workers or a future as a boyfriend! The fact that she was thirty years older than me didn’t seem to trouble her, ... but it troubled me!

「敬我们的美好将来。」贝蒂˙威廉斯(Betty Williams)用她的香槟杯与我碰杯庆祝，她是香港最有钱的一位女富豪。我不太懂她说的「将来」，指的是我成为她员工的那个将来，还是指我变成她男友的那种将来！她比我大上三十岁，对她来说似乎不成问题，……但对我来说却是啊！


How did I get into this uncomfortable situation? It started while I was swimming in Repulse Bay in Hong Kong many years ago. Actually, I don’t think I would swim there now as it is so polluted. The beautiful old hotel and mansions have been replaced by ugly concrete tourist attractions, and the sea is not very clean.

我怎么会落到这种尴尬的地步呢？那是在好多年前，我在香港的浅水湾(Repulse Bay)游泳。事实上，我现在可不会去那边游泳了，因为它已经被严重污染。那些美仑美奂、古色古香的旅馆与华屋，都已被水泥建材的丑陋观光建筑给取代，海水也不是很干净。


Anyway, while I was lying there soaking up the sun, I heard a girl’s voice calling me, “Brian! Brian! Do you remember me?” Of course, I remembered her from my San Francisco days. She was a British girl called Shirley. She was there on the beach with her equally pretty friend, Beryl. They had previously shared a nice apartment in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco. I used to enjoy their wild parties.

总之，我当时躺在那边晒太阳，听到有女生在叫我：「布莱恩！布莱恩！还记得我吗？」当然记得，我在旧金山认识她的。她是英国人，名叫雪莉(Shirley)。和她一起来到这沙滩的，是跟她一样漂亮的朋友，贝丽儿(Beryl)。她们之前住在旧金山的海特－艾希贝利嬉皮区(Haight-Ashbury district)，两人分租一间很不错的公寓。我以前很喜欢去参加她们举办的派对，大家玩的很疯。
