    不一样的加州(二)

    "今天”去Stanford University。一大早出门,天又开始下雨。

    “张导”开着车,带我参观了沿途那个精致可爱的小城市Palo Alto。每家每户都种满了五颜六色,造型修得别致精美的植物和鲜花。“张导”说,这是有钱人住的一片区域。

    到了Stanford University,果然是在名气和学费上都相当贵族气的学校,刚进大门,就是一条笔直开阔的大路,啥也没有,就两旁种满棕榈树。让我一直感慨:这么大的一块地方,要是放在北邮,修点啥不好...IMG_0478 (这天气,真的是在加州...)

    之后,开始在学校里面乱转悠。一直跟“导游”嚷嚷着要找一个写有大大的“STANFORD UNIVERSITY”的标志照一张相,结果在学校里转了大半圈都没看到。。。最后只有作罢,在学校的一个Church前面勉强找了一个写有“Stanford”的牌子。按导游的话来说,确实,就跟人一样,名气大了自然也不用什么名片了。

    Stanford给人的感觉就是一个园林,而不会有太强烈的校园印象。转完一大圈,只能记得学校环保很好,完全不记得哪栋教学楼长啥样。更多的照片,直接放在相册里了。

    从学校出来,奔向San Jose的Silicon Valley去找来此出差的Tony。路上开了没多久,就再一次体现了我乌鸦嘴的本事。本来只是突然想起,就跟“张导”聊起在滑铁卢学校门口,经常看到有野鸭排队慢悠悠地过马路,来往的车辆都规规矩矩地停好让它们过街。刚说完没多久,就在眼前十米处看到几只小鸭子跟着鸭妈妈从路沿边跳出来开始过马路。为了及时刹车避让它们,害得张导的车被后面的追尾,把“张导”的车的bumper撞破了,还好其他的没有大碍。希望“张导”的车在转卖的时候能卖个好价钱。。。

    继续上路,看到了数不清的科技公司,Cisco,Google...然后看到了爱立信的四栋楼,接着看到了Tony。

    从那天开始,我就没敢再乱说话乱讲故事,每次开口之前,“张导游”都要提醒我,使眼色,我也就仔细地想了又想,话才敢说出口...
