夏威夷遊記（四） 吃吃喝喝
網上很多（華人的）遊記都提到一個問題，就是夏威夷的餐廳比較少。但根據我們的10天經歷，卻並不這麼覺得。
夏威夷遊記（三） 茂宜島 Molokini Snorkelling
此文爲夏威夷茂宜島遊記的下部分。
夏威夷遊記（二） 茂宜島 Road to Hana, Ahihi-Kinau, Lahaina
茂宜島：陽光沙灘與海，雲海聖山與樹，城市人羣與浮潛，茂宜島 has it all! 瓦胡島的行程參見上篇。
夏威夷遊記（一） 瓦胡島
借着 CVPR 2017 的機會，終於去了一趟嚮往已久的夏威夷。主要是參觀了瓦胡（oahu）島以及茂宜（maui）島。非常喜歡，嚴格來說是我第一次去“度假”。美好的自然風光非常愜意。趁在在飛機上有時間，可以寫一些流水帳。

The White Coat Investor 读书笔记
最近开始阅读 The White Coat Investor。 之前在网上搜投资理财时已经知道这个作者，并且大致看过他的网站，印象不错。最近准备在 Books 上看一些书，刚好给我推荐了这本。总的来说，这本书算是一本投资理财的入门书，里面提到的东西基本上我都零散地学习过。如今能系统地学习，索性写下一些笔记来加深理解。

推荐一个好用的理财网站: Personal Capital
