65. Lovely Bear Says Hello to Cruise Ship with a Friendly Wave.
A
The three Samoan teenagers who had survived fifty days all alone at the Pacific Ocean in a small boat and had given up all their hope, have now been found alive miraculously. The youths, two aged 15 and one aged 14, had disappeared in a tiny boat and were assumed to have died after unsuccessful searches in the vast ocean by the New Zealand air force and even the memorial service in their honor was held. But who knew the miracles of God? B
It’s like something straight out of a James Bond film – but a British firm believes this floating building could be the future of life at sea. With 11 accommodation decks, a 360-degree observation area, its own dock, several swimming pools and as much space as a cruise liner, it’s not so much a boat as a city. The boat is designed to float on four platforms, each with thrusters(推进器)to keep the whole boat island stable, even in the extreme seas.

While most of us will love to go on a vacation for a week or two on a small yacht, there is no doubt about the fact that spending seven precious years on sea is something which most of us will never imagine or dare to do. However, that is what an American family has done. Tom Crafton and Kathy Crafton along with their three children have traveled across the world on their 43-foot sailboat.

Hans was on board the ship just taking in the view when he suddenly saw a head pop up from behind the ice about 15 yards away. The bear was yawning and seemed to be enjoying all the attention and walked over to the crowd. It waved twice. When it lifted his hand and waved again, Hans managed to capture the shot.

The rising sea waters caused by global warming have inspired a Russian architect to design a hotel that could be built on water as well as land. It’s called “The Ark”, but looks more like a ship sitting upside down on the water. A new design by Russian architect Alexander Remizov challenges the tradition of land-based hotel and would provide a shelter in the future ---- should the world face a modern-day flood of Biblical proportions.

Bora Bora is the most beautiful island in the world. It’s so unbelievably attractive and so often used in pictorials as the perfect example of exotic islands, that some question its existence. But rest assured, this volcanic island with a palm-fringed coral reef that forms a small area of water so crystal clear that the Caribbean looks cloudy by comparison is very real and very achievable to world travelers and island lovers.
