Dorothy Hoffner, a 104-year-old Chicago woman whose recent skydive could see her certified by Guinness World Records as the oldest person to ever jump from a plane, has died.

最近進行高空跳傘、可能使她被金氏世界紀錄認證為從飛機一躍而下最高齡者的104歲芝加哥婦女桃樂西‧霍芙娜過世了。

The quiet of early morning streets in one downtown Tokyo neighbourhood is broken by joggers, parents with children in strollers - and a pair of alpacas, out for their daily constitutional walk.

在東京市中心某社區街頭,慢跑者、推嬰兒車帶小孩出門的父母,以及一對為了健康而例行性出門散步的羊駝,打破了一大早的寧靜。

On leads held by their keepers, Akane and Satsuki trot down streets past shops and temples, crop grass in a pocket park and share crosswalks with the occasional pedestrian before heading back to their home at an indoor petting zoo, "Alpaca Land".
