Barack Obama kicks off tropical holiday in Indonesia’s Bali
故地重游 奥巴马携家人赴印尼度假访问
UBUD, Indonesia (AFP) - Barack Obama has kicked off a 10-day family holiday in Indonesia that will take in Bali and Jakarta, the city where he spent part of his childhood, officials said on Saturday (June 24).
乌布.印度尼西亚(法新社电)——据星期六(6月24日)官方消息，美国前总统奥巴马携家人至印度尼西亚进行为期10天的旅行，他们会在巴厘岛和雅加达度假——他的部分童年是在雅加达度过的。
The casually dressed former president arrived in the resort island of Bali with his wife Michelle and their two daughters, a local military commander said.
一身休闲打扮的奥巴马和妻子米歇尔及两个女儿到达了度假胜地巴厘岛，据当地一名军事指挥官透露。
"They arrived late last night and went straight to the hotel in Ubud," a local military commander, I Gede Widiyana, told AFP.
当地指挥官盖德告诉法新社：“他们昨夜到达，直接入住了位于乌布的酒店。”
Obama woke up early and did some exercise in the lush green riverside resort, Widiyana said, but it was not known how the family would spend their time in the quiet and artsy Ubud area.
盖德说，奥巴马起的很早，在度假胜地郁郁葱葱的河畔做了一些锻炼，不过还不知道奥巴马一家将会如何在静谧又具艺术气息的乌布度过假期。
Next week, the family is slated to depart for Yogyakarta, where they are expected to visit ancient Borobudur temple. They will spend two days there before flying to Jakarta.
下周，他们一家计划去往日惹，在那里他们应该会去参观古老的婆罗浮屠寺。两天后飞往雅加达。
Obama spent four years until 1970 as a boy in the then sleepy capital of Indonesia after his divorced mother married an Indonesian.
由于他的母亲改嫁给一位印尼人，奥巴马幼年时期曾在印尼首都雅加达住过4年，直到1970年离开，那时这个城市还略显寂冷。
Many Indonesians felt a strong bond with Obama because of his exposure to Indonesia and its culture, even making him a 2m bronze statue that was placed in his former school.
由于奥巴马在印尼生活过，以及对印尼文化的了解，许多印尼人感到自己与奥巴马有着强烈的纽带关系，甚至在他就读过的小学建了一座2米高的铜像。
The statue of "Little Barry" - as Obama was known to his Indonesian school friends - depicts the boy Obama dressed in shorts and a T-shirt with a butterfly perched on his hand.
这座“小巴里”雕像——奥巴马在印尼学校的朋友们所称呼他的——描绘了少年时期的奥巴马穿着短裤和T恤，一只蝴蝶在他的手上逗留。
Indonesia’s foreign ministry said Obama’s visit to holiday in Indonesia came after several invitations from President Joko Widodo.
印尼外交部称，奥巴马到印尼度假是应其总统佐科.维多多数次邀请之后。
While in the capital, Obama will meet the president on June 30 and give a speech at an Indonesian diaspora convention the next day.
6月30日，奥巴马会在雅加达与印尼总统佐科会面，并在7月1日举行的 “印度尼西亚侨民大会”上致辞。
