夏威夷－－海灘，健行，潛水和滑雪的類同和對比

這次在夏威夷除了一天去鑽石山頭健行，其他時間就在酒店門口的Waikiki海灘隨便散散步曬曬太陽。沒有很驚豔的美，但還蠻漂亮蠻舒服。

Diamond Head健行

隻有一小段蠻陡的。真心不難走。山頂視野開闊，風景怡人。










半路上有一個觀景平台。原本我的絕妙主意是叫老公來當Rose，而我反串Jack，那才好玩呢，可他就是不肯合作！隻有大媽自己來耍寶了。給我們照相的路人甲都笑岔氣了。

潛水悲劇後，隻能坐等他人下潛第二筒。和船上的日本老水手聊天，我很無聊地列舉種種滑雪和潛水的類同和對比，寫下來玩兒。

Diving vs. Skiing

After my unlucky throw-up episode, I had to sit out my second dive today. Maybe because our ski trip was so recent, diving actually reminded me of skiing, and I had a lovely chat with one of the crews about diving vs. skiing.

The two activities are quite opposite. Diving is best enjoyed in summer and in warm, tropical islands, and skiing is best enjoyed when it's very cold and in high mountains.

Skiing is about breaking speed; diving is about floating and relaxing as much as possible.

Both only require water, one form or another.

Both activities require quite a bit of gear. To me, putting on the heavy gear is half of the work. Walking in your fins to the edge of the boat or walking up to the chairlift in your ski boots -- one word: clumsy.

Both activities are silent sports. When we skied down the slopes, there was only faint shush of snow drifting, and my occasional yelling of 'french fries', 'pizza' at the kids, oops. Underwater, the only sound is your own breathing through the regulator. In an increasingly noisy world, it's such a treat to be surrounded by silence.

Both activities are filled with incredible beauty of nature.

Ski in a white world while diving in blue seas.

Whether swooshing downhill on skis or drifting underwater, both activities are like flying, though diving is like flying in slow motion, or like Will says, "in space".

Both activities are very enjoyable. Both are filled with adventure.

My pick is skiing. Will said he can't pick.

Do you prefer the mountains over the ocean? 滑雪和潛水，一熱一冷，一白一藍，一快一慢，一山一水。你愛山甚過海嗎？

• 潛水和滑雪的類同和對比很有意思，也的確很難取舍。有句古語是這樣說“山”和“水”的：仁者愛山智者愛水。 -Chocolatecherry- ♀ (0 bytes) () 04/14/2014 postreply 23:13:42

• 上次在Kauai玩ultralight滑翔機就很怕。幾年後果真出事，教練客人都命喪黃泉。極限運動還是風險太大。 -lepton- ♀ (6 bytes) () 04/15/2014 postreply 05:20:01

• 下次來Kauai Maui 更漂亮。年輕時候窮玩的，辛苦一點，其實也很有意思，想起來還是很溫馨吧。 -lepton- ♀ (0 bytes) () 04/15/2014 postreply 08:39:27

• 沒說到最不同的一點，有氧和無氧。 潛水最恐怖的就是氧氣快用完了，你還在80英尺以下的地方。 -熊貓媳婦- ♀ (200 bytes) () 04/15/2014 postreply 11:34:05

• 我不同，呼吸太順，每次都有最多氧氣剩下，所以從來就不害怕不夠氣。但我有高原反應，滑雪時會上氣不接下氣。 -lepton- ♀ (0 bytes) () 04/15/2014 postreply 12:25:58
