哇！您来了！  
Wow! You're here!   

奥拉热烈欢迎大家！我是奥拉，这个故事中的人物之一。温馨提示，如果您更喜欢听，而不是阅读，您可以点击红色或蓝色文本旁边的耳机。阅读的话，点击蓝色或红色的文本。（汉语和西班牙语的音频还在录制中。）

And a big welcome from Aura. That’s me. I’m one of the people in this story and, by the way, if you’d rather listen than read, just click the headphones that are next to red or blue text. Readers: click the blue or red text.

我特别想说，无论您是如何来到我们这里的，相聚就是一种缘分，您或许将看到耳目一新的东西，就像西内、科罗纳多和我当时相遇，在大峡谷这样的真实主题公园和周边的四个州，闲聊这里的历史和人文。我们的故事马上就要开始了，您可能也会像我们那样，发现这里的风土人情，并且重新发现自己。

But mainly I just want to say: no matter how you got here, take our coming together as an occasion to maybe see things in a new light, like when Sine, Coronado and I met and got to jabbering about the highlights, history, and issues in the real-life theme park we call the Grand Canyon and four corners states. Maybe you, like us, will come to find community and your self in the story we’re about to enter.

与这些朋友的相识，让我开办了这家经纬剧院餐厅，主营当年欧洲人探险美洲新大陆时期的美式和欧式的菜肴。我们在那里的谈话让我想到了一些从未思考过的问题。有空时来这里吃点东西，看看那些看似平常的东西，竟然融合自不同的文化沉淀。闲暇时间也是非常好的时候，去快速浏览一下我们这个故事的文本，点击一下那些链接，因为您在听的时候是看不到这些链接的。然后，您可能会决定和我们一起去探索那些让我们思考的东西。我坚信，您最终会以更深的层次，更宽的视角来理解我们所处的环境和我们自己。

Meeting these guys got me to start up the Orientation Theater’s Café that offers American and European entrees circa 1492. That’s where our conversation led me: to do something I’d never thought of. Stop in for a bite at intermission to see how what seems so ordinary came from different cultures mixing it up over time. Intermissions are also a good time to buzz through the print version of our story to hit on links you would have missed if you were just listening to it. And when it’s all over, you might decide to go with us on tours to the things that got us thinking. My bet is you’ll end up exploring your surroundings and your self more deeply and from a broader perspective after awhile.
