Holiday Disaster灾难性度假

My friend sent me a long email about a trip she made, all in one paragraph She took a package trip to an island with a hot climate, thinking she could have a decent holiday there, sitting under palms and enjoying the view Unfortunately, it turned out to be a painful experience Everything went at a very slow pace; for instance, she had to wait for an hour for her turn at customs, then another half hour to package her luggage again As soon as she stepped out, she was immediately surrounded by people who wanted to sell her all sorts of things, from a pad to a pair of pants, and a painter also insisted he draw a picture of her However, the sight of police panicked them, so they palmed their money and ran away When she went to the market, a friendlylooking girl palmed off some false antiques to her The next morning, she was woken up by bands parading along the streets So she went down to watch the parade The streets were crowded with people who tried to keep pace with the bands Supporters of one band werent satisfied with the decision made by the panel and threw beer bottles at them, which set the pace for others to do likewise Panic followed a big fight My friend paced up and down her room when she found her money had been stolen, and decided to take the next flight back “At least the plane seats are padded” She wrote

我的朋友给我发了一封很长的电子邮件讲述她的一次旅行，全文只有一个段落。她参加了一个包办旅游，去了一个气候炎热的岛上，满以为可以好好地度一个假，可以坐在棕榈树下欣赏风景。不幸的是，这次旅行结果成了一次痛苦的经历。办所有事情都速度极慢，比方说，在海关等了一个小时才轮到她过关，把东西重新打包又花了半个小时。她一出门，立刻就被一群人围住了，他们向她兜售从便笺本到长裤等各种东西。一个画家还坚持要给她画像。不过，看见警察他们便惊惶失措，于是手里捏着钱就跑了。她去逛市场时，一个貌似友善的女孩用欺骗的手段把一些假古董卖给了她。第二天早上，她被在街上列队行进的乐队给吵醒了，于是她下楼去看他们的游行。街上到处是人，他们与乐队齐步前进。一个乐队的支持者因为对评判小组的裁决不满，便向他们投掷啤酒瓶，这给其他人起了个带头作用，他们也扔起啤酒瓶来。一场恶斗之后紧接着是一片惊慌。我的朋友发现钱被偷之后开始在房间里来回踱步，并决定搭乘下一班飞机回来。“至少飞机上的座位包了护垫。”她写道。
