有朋至远方来，美食和笑谈，不易乐乎 Hanging out with friends from China @ La Campania, delicious food and nice environment

晚上和几位国内来的朋友一起吃饭。有段时间没见了，见面聊得非常欢。朋友这次美国之行也发生了很多小插曲-

Had dinner with few friends visiting from China tonight. We haven't seen each for some time. A lot to catch up. Couple drama from their trip to share with you-

1. 他们昨天晚上坐上从波特兰飞波士顿的航班（JetBlue), 结果一上飞机，发现他们的一个位被人给占了。于是请那人起来。 结果那人就往前移了一个位置。结果又被人给叫起来，最后竟然跑到厕所里躲起来。该航班当班满员。后面了解居然是机场的一个保洁人员，没有买机票想搭免费飞机。最后搞得大家给十几个警察以十人一组陪同下去重新安检。之前就听说JetBlue 的安检差，但没想到居然到这程度，真是晕倒！

They boarded on JetBlue plane from Portland to Boston last night and found one of their seat was taken. They politely asked that guy to move, he moved up to a front seat, but then was asked to leave again, and finally he had to hide in the restroom. My friend later was told that this guy is a janitor at the airport, he wanted to take free trip to Boston, but didn't expect the flight to be booked flight. My friends and other passengers were escorted by more than 10 polices to pass through security check again before they finally boarded again. I heard some complains about security at JetBlue, but really didn't expect it to be this bad. Sucks!

1. 他们前两天在波特兰的时候大半夜打优步，结果运气不好居然碰到一位爆脾气的黑人司机，一路骂骂咧咧，最后尽然在深山里把他们赶下自己开走了。 之前也有听说发生过类似事件，可没想到竟然被我朋友给碰上了。 好在人都平安，这都比什么都好了。 我建议他们去投诉，不能股息这种社会败类，危害大家。息事宁人不是什么时候都可取的。

Couple days ago, my friends were taking Uber at midnight. But unfortunately, the driver was really rude, and unfriendly, he forced my friends to get off the cab at nowhere in the dark and drove away by himself. I heard about something similar in the past, but didn't expect it to happen to my friends. Thank God they are safe which is the most important. I suggested them to report the driver, can't really tolerant this type of loser so there won't be more victims. It's not ok to keep mouth shut in some things, and this is one of it in my humble opinion.

不过高兴的是，朋友们这次出来的主要目的还是达成了。加上有机会和老朋友见面，更是喜欢。 大家把酒言欢，不易乐乎。

Regardless, my friends have achieved their goal for this trip which is worth celebrating. Such great pleasure to hang out with friend in a foreign country.

这是一家正宗的意大利餐厅。装饰非常传统，不大但非常温馨。 服务周到，工作人员非常友善，食物用料讲究，菜品美观，味道非常纯正，美味可口，上菜速度快， 价钱也还合理，决定下次带老公一起再去。

This is an authentic Italian restaurant, decoration is very traditional. Its size is not very big but feels very cozy. They offer really good service, people there were very friendly. The restaurant picks the best and fresh ingredients with secret recipe passing from generation to generation. Really delicious. Price was reasonable too which is definitely a big plus. I will bring my husband there next time. Highly recommend it.
