Especially worthwhile, in my opinion, is the stretch south of Sedan that takes in towns such as Mouzon and villages like Wiseppe.
我認為特別值得一看的是色當(Sedan)南面的地區,像莫桑鎮(Mouzon)和瓦斯普村(Wiseppe)這些地方。
I really don't think you could have quite the same experience in a car, but that's not to say there are no downsides to bicycle travel. I find that I constantly have in mind Dr Johnson's judgment on the Giant's Causeway. The 18th-century man of letters famously remarked that this bizarre formation of rocks in Northern Ireland was worth seeing, but not worth "going" to see.
我真的不認為坐在汽車里會有同樣的體驗,但也不是說自行車旅行沒有缺點。我發現自己總是把約翰森博士對“巨人之路”( Giant's Causeway)的著名點評記在心里,這位十八世紀的作家評論說,北愛爾蘭奇特的巖石構造值得看,但是不值得“走過去”看。
This maxim I had to apply to Mt Malgré-Tout, which I was told was the scene of a wartime massacre of French civilians by the Nazis. In other circumstances I'm sure it would have proved an interesting diversion, but as I gazed up the steep slope that leads up to it, there was just no way I was going to find out.
我把這句至理名言用到了摩爾格力.透特山上(Mt Malgré-Tout),有人告訴我,這里在二次大戰期間曾有法國平民被納粹屠殺。在其它情況下,我肯定會覺得這是一個有意思地方,但是當我把目光投向陡峭的山坡時,卻找不到上山的路。
