Milwaukee (介绍篇)

听说Milwaukee(密尔沃基)这个城市是6年前,我初来乍到Rochester结识了柬埔寨美女Sokie。她和男友Matt吵吵闹闹分分合合像回娘家似的拖着睡衣铺盖卷敲我住所的门若干个回合之后决定步入婚姻的殿堂。她告诉我,婚礼将于离Rochester4个半小时车程以外的男方父母家所在的Milwaukee举行。

我那时所有开高速公路的经验加起来不超过20分钟,而且呆在高速上也是以时速55英里以下的速度蜗速前进。自己开车不太可能了,而我又不愿意9个小时和我完全不认识的他家老小挤一辆车。于是我很沮丧。倒不是因为错过了去Milwaukee的机会(因为名声并不响亮,我也不太感冒),更多是是因为送了厚礼却没捞着看看新娘子出嫁的场面和见识见识西方隆重场合饭菜的水平。

Sokie和Matt婚后时常回Milwaukee探望父母,回来后就会眉飞色舞地描述那个城市的好:湖水,沙滩,美女,啤酒,音乐……他们没有摄影的习惯,所以对于我这个需要形象思维的人来说,虽然耳熟能详了,大脑中对这个城市却没有任何印象……直到上个周末,我身临其境。
