Sky @ Rego Park, New York City 紐約雷哥公園的天空

對於一個愛好大自然景色的人來說，紐約可以是一個很無聊的城市。但我和老公很幸運，在紐約的這段期間，住在一棟公寓的最頂樓四樓，每個方向看出去都沒有遮蔽物，所以我們有無限的日出和日落可以享受－不用特地去海邊或山上，否則說實在也太遠了。面對西邊，可以看到以曼哈頓為背景的日落。

倒不是有很多人像我們那麼會跑到頂樓去放鬆自己（大概把之前住在舊金山面對自然放鬆的習慣帶過來了）每每下班做完運動吃晚飯，就到頂樓和老公一起看夕陽聊天。週末的早晨，也會來這作體操，新鮮地打開一天。我們最後在紐約的一年裡，拍了不少夕陽的相片，以及一次難得的月全食。我們真的很珍惜在雷哥公園的這段期間，就是因為我們找到了一個心中的世外桃源。

New York City can be boring if one is more fond of natural scene. I am one of those people. Fortunately, the place that we used to live was on the top floor of an apartment building in Queens, facing all directions without any obstruction. That means we had free sunrise views and sunset views with Manhattan cityscape as the backdrop.

Not a lot of people went to the roof top, for some reason. But it certainly was our place to vent our stress after a full day of work. My husband and I would just chat after dinner, or do light exercise during weekend mornings. We captured numerous sunsets and even a lunar eclipse. This place that we lived, was definitely an Utopia in our heart.
