Section 526 Qin Ren's American Journey

Qin Ren is a very interesting man. When everyone thought this guy was traveling around the world, the guy sneaked back to the United States and embarked on a car trip.

When he arrived in Seattle, Qin Ren bought a one-day ticket, took the light rail, and began a purposeless wandering. Qin Ren did not make a detailed guide because Qin Ren did not want to walk other people's roads again. So he took a map and could do whatever he wanted.

The experience this city gives Qin Ren is trust, because public transportation tickets are purchased on ticket vending machines. From getting on the bus to getting off, no one checks the tickets, no one checks the tickets, and the same is true at every station passed by. People who watch them consciously swipe their cards to get on and off.

This kind of consciousness is based on mutual trust and on the high fines from the United States. In the following days, it was discovered that this was not only a feature of Seattle, but also a value system of the entire United States.

Seattle is not big, and Qin Ren often walks. It had just rained when he arrived. The air was particularly fresh and the fatigue of long-distance flight was wiped out. The golden fallen leaves on the ground did not give people a dirty feeling. Instead, it felt that this was the scenery that should be there, but the modernization of many cities has replaced all this.

Not long after a day, Qin Ren went to the more famous Pike Market. He heard that there was a famous "Flying Fish Show" there. He didn't know what the performance was, so he came here. When he arrived at the market entrance, he saw a group of people gathered together and took photos. He applauded and found that it was a fish stall.

All kinds of fresh big fish are throwing around in the air, and they are shouting neat slogans. Several people have a clear division of labor, some are responsible for hawking, some are responsible for weighing, some are responsible for packing, and some are responsible for charging. This is the legendary "Flying Fish Show". Several people turn their business into performances and make their daily daily work into urban tourism characteristics.

I sincerely admire the entertainment spirit of Americans, and at the same time I feel the inner happiness they come from the heart at work. Turning interest into work will make interest boring, but turning work into interest will make work endless fun.

Not far from the market, there is a very inconspicuous small cafe. If you only look at the logo, you will find familiarity, but after reading the name, you will suddenly realize that this is the famous Starbucks, and this is the origin of Starbucks, the world's first Starbucks coffee shop.

It is indeed admirable that such an inconspicuous small shop can create such a huge coffee empire. In fact, this should be very common in the United States, just as many world-class large companies were born in garages and dormitories, fully reflecting the American spirit of pioneering and entrepreneurship.

Since you are here, you must join in the fun. People have a herd mentality. When you see the long queue at the door, you must taste what the original Starbucks tastes. After more than half an hour, you finally bought coffee. The coffee worth more than 3 dollars per cup is not very expensive. It is really enjoyable to drink a cup of strong coffee in the morning after the rain.

So what is indispensable in Seattle's city business card is the word coffee. You can see a Starbucks store in less than 5 minutes on the streets of Seattle and there are many coffee shops with different names. It can be seen that the status of coffee in Seattle people's lives.

When I was watching someone else's travel notes on the plane, I knew that Bruce Lee's cemetery was in Seattle. As the pride of Chinese people, I wanted to go to the cemetery to offer a bouquet of flowers, but due to time and distance, I still couldn't go there. This is a small regret, but regret is the beginning of the next time.

The next morning, I flew from Seattle from the United States to Los Angeles. At noon, Qin Ren arrived in Los Angeles. As soon as he got off the plane, he felt the abundant sunshine in California and the temperature rise. He took the shuttle bus from the car rental company and arrived at the parking lot to complete various car rental procedures.

Finally, Qin Ren chose Chevrolet's 7-seater SUV among the two cars. When he felt that the United States had to experience the power of the American muscle car. After driving in the car, he truly experienced that the United States is a country on wheels. In Los Angeles and the cities he went to behind, although public transportation is very developed, it is not very convenient, because the number of private cars has weakened the function of public transportation, and there are not many taxis.

I read the guide online and said that many taxis in the United States require phone reservations, and the prices are higher than the price, so driving in the United States is a very comfortable thing.

Los Angeles is the first stop for self-driving in the United States and the last stop on the Western Conference Circle. In Los Angeles, I went to Hollywood and Universal Studios and watched the Lakers' home games. The ones that impressed me the most were NBA and Universal Studios. On the first day, Zu finished the car and rushed directly to Hollywood. I believe that everyone who traveled to Los Angeles should not miss it.

But apart from the dazzling stars on the Avenue of Stars, there is actually nothing to be left over. There are not many special features in various theaters and wax museums, especially those like Qin Ren who knows little about foreign entertainment and culture, and almost no few of the stars on the Avenue of Stars know about them.

The NBA at night is the highlight. The reservation tickets are about 140 US dollars in the upper and lower positions. Although they are a little expensive, they are worth it for Qin Ren. The atmosphere at the NBA is particularly contagious and shocking. A simple player entrance ceremony can be done as grand as a party, which is not just for the good results on the spot.

Qin Ren felt that it was a kind of respect for players and fans, giving home players and fans enough confidence and strength. During the game, the home players on the scene would lead all the audience to play the beats together every time the home team players took the ball, allowing the fans to feel that they were part of the team's offensive and defense, and allowed the fans to truly integrate into a game.

The last day of the ring line, I returned to Los Angeles and gave all of this day to Universal Studios. After registering a membership on the outlet website, I can buy discounted tickets of $145 on their website. I saw that there were a lot of people on the Internet and I must queue up early. As a result, Qin Ren arrived at Universal Studios at 8 o'clock, but found out why there was no car? Is it not open today?

I found out after asking that the door was opened until 10 o'clock, so I can read the guide, but don't write it all. Go to the ticket center to redeem tickets. Each ticket has its own name and you can enter the park three times. This is also the characteristic of many parks and scenic spots in the United States. There is no restriction on entry and exit within a number of days.

When it was almost 10 o'clock, more and more people were queuing up at the door. You could see many Chinese people, but there was a problem that particularly bothered Qin Ren. When Chinese people met, they did not smile at each other, but turned a blind eye or took the initiative to avoid it. On the contrary, they would be more likely to get in touch with foreigners who were not able to speak.

Returning to the theme, you don’t have to worry about your language problems at Universal Studios, because the map inside is in Chinese, and it’s almost unobstructed to hold the map. The first stop is recommended to take a sightseeing bus, where there are three queue channels, English, Spanish and Chinese. It can be seen that the humanization of American services is.

The sightseeing bus takes tourists around the park for about 40 minutes, and you will see many familiar scenes, all of which are the shooting scenes of Hollywood blockbusters, such as "The Great White Jaws" and "King Kong", and you will also experience many high-tech shooting techniques, such as floods, earthquakes, and 4D King Kong.

In addition, there are also many shooting locations where there are working actors who simulate the characters in the film, making you feel like you are in a movie. This is also the deepest point for Qin Ren. Every staff member seems to be an actor, such as Qin Ren’s Chinese commentary on his sightseeing car, and it seems that it really happened in every scene.

Use her serious performance to bring every visitor into the situation. Among other attractions, the Transformers-themed 4D roller coaster in the Lower Park. A robot war unfolds in front of you. You sit in a car and keep walking through the battlefield. The feeling of being immersive is very real.

Although it is not the peak season, many attractions still need to queue up. However, the queue here is not an impatient or irritable situation. Instead, various human-computer interactions will be designed during the queue, so that your waiting will not become boring. Instead, it can increase tourists' excitement about the attractions through various methods.

The mood continues to rise, allowing tourists to experience it particularly well. There is also a detail that fully reflects the customer experience and achieves the ultimate waiting place. There is a "parking lot" outside each attraction, but it is a stroller parking lot. This allows many parents who take their babies to play to relieve their worries and don't have to worry about not having a good time with a big stroller.

There are many drinking water spots in the park, and there are drinking water pools in many public places in the United States, because the tap water in the city can be directly consumed. Americans seem to have no habit of drinking hot water. They drink cold water regardless of the weather, and there are ice machines in many outdoor places. It can be seen that the American system is good.

In fact, there are some places in the country that have installed this kind of drinking water device, but in the end they have become trash cans.

This is a miracle created in the desert. On the way from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, most straight roads are lined with barren deserts, rocks, and yellow weeds. The roads are endless. The monotonous scenes around you will feel more tired when you drive.

So remind friends who are driving to have a co-pilot chat with you, or park regularly for a rest. After driving for 4 hours, when Las Vegas City is slowly approaching, you will become more and more excited, and the fatigue brought by the desert road is also abandoned, because you will find that there is a city in front of you that is in sharp contrast to the desert outside.

Especially when Qin Ren returned from the Grand Canyon, he arrived in Las Vegas at night. From a distance, a magnificent article was particularly prominent in this lonely desert.

There are also rare traffic jams in the United States on the streets of Las Vegas. There are many cars here and there are many people. There are various extended Lincolns and extended Hummers running on the streets. I remember that many years ago, I would scream when I saw the extended Lincoln on TV, but before you could even exclaim, n extended cars drove over here.

When you drive on the road, you can't get faster. You will look around differently, sigh constantly, sigh at the wisdom of the Americans, and create such a prosperous city in a desert. Here you will see a smaller version of the Statue of Liberty, the Sphinx, the Pyramid, the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, and each landscape belongs to a large casino.

Every casino is also a landscape here. The gambling industry attracts people from all over the world to show their skills. There you can enjoy various luxurious and high-quality services. Las Vegas is mainly based on the gambling industry, so food, accommodation and transportation there are very cheap, and you can enjoy far-reaching treatment.
