Sleepless in Seattle


I was sent to Seattle for industry conference after working 10 years for company. It is my first time to visit America. Everything is fresh, interesting to me. I ride bus, mono rail, subway, even cruise. I like there except all days raining.
The hotel I stayed is close to Space Needle, that I can watch it from window. Looks like it operate all the time even in the evening.
Not sure if I have opportunity to visit America again, next time I will take my wife and son, and rent a car to enjoy the culture and sightview of biggest empire in the world.
最大的感受是,美国人口稀少,自动化程度高,比如在Walmart结账要自己扫码,刷卡。没有服务人员,真个商场也很少有服务人员。听说美国相对加拿大已经很容易找到工作生存了,这样看来,加拿大的确很难生存(美国都已经很少雇人了)。开车的司机都很懂客气,基本上没看到不遵守交通规则的。就是公交非常不方便,站台没有站名,路线图上也只有时间,没有地名。老美都比较抗冻,包括婴儿也是这样。这一点异常明显。东西价格大概是国内的3--5倍,中国人还是要自己做饭比较吃的过瘾。
和意法瑞相比,美国更适合养老。
