The Isles of Scilly is a distance off the Cornish mainland.

锡利群岛离康沃尔大陆很远。

On one very rough ferry crossing, on the route to the Isles of Scilly, for example, my traveling companion spent the entire 3-hour-ride throwing up in the bathroom, while I dozed happily on a plastic chair.

在一次前往锡利群岛的渡轮上，那次旅程非常艰辛，我的旅伴整整三个小时的航程都在洗手间呕吐，而我则在塑料椅子上愉快地打盹。
