While we sweat the heat away in our cramped apartments, Queen Elizabeth soends her sumemrs relaxing at Balmoral Castle (AKA the Queen's favorite home) in the west Highlands of Scotland.
我们在狭小的公寓里挥汗如雨,伊丽莎白女王在位于苏格兰高地西部的巴尔莫勒尔堡(女王最喜欢的住所)里避暑。

This year, though, she's making it "a special point" to invite Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and baby Archie to celebrate what will be Meghan's 38th birthday on August 4.
但今年她要过得“特殊一点”,邀请哈里王子、梅根·马克尔和小宝宝阿尔奇一起庆祝8月4日梅根38岁的生日。

While they visit, the Sussexes will have their own wing in the castle for the duration of their stay and will also be the guests of honor at an afternoon tea with the Queen, The Sun reports.
据《太阳报》报道,苏塞克斯公爵一家来访期间在城堡里有单独的房间,也会作为贵宾和女王一起喝下午茶。

The UK news outlet also shares that such an invitation, which is Meghan's first invitation to visit Balmoral, is particularly thoughtful because it will be for the Duchess of Sussex's birthday.
该新闻机构还说这是梅根第一次受邀到巴尔莫勒尔堡,这次邀请很贴心,是要为苏塞克斯公爵夫人庆生。

A source told the outlet that this sort of invitation "is a testament to Meghan." Given that the Queen and Prince Philip both reportedly adore Harry, Meghan, and Archie, it may not come as much of a surprise to some, though it's "a huge honor" nonetheless.
知情人向报社透露这种邀请“是对梅根的证明”,假如女王和菲利普亲王真像报道那样很疼爱哈里、梅根和阿尔奇,那这就不意外了,尽管这种邀请是“一项殊荣”。

Unlike the Royal Palaces, which belong to the Crown, Balmoral Castle is actually one of two personal and private residences owned by the Royal Family themselves and it has been in the family since the mid-1800s, according to the Royal Family's website.
皇室网站上说,巴尔莫勒尔堡和皇室拥有的皇家宫殿不同,其实是王室成员私有的两个私人住所之一,从19世纪中期开始就属于这个家族。

To make things more exciting, Balmoral Castle is actually open to the public between April and July each year.
更令人兴奋的是,每年巴尔莫勒尔堡四月至七月间会对外开放。

This year, you can visit through July 31 between the hours of 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. While there, you can walk the grounds and see the gardens, take a safari tour, visit the Castle Ballroom, Carriage Hall Courtyard, and Estate Exhibition, and, of course, pretend you, too, are there at special invitation of Her Majesty.
今年7月31日前参观时间是10 a.m. - 5 p.m,参观期间你可以散散步,逛逛花园,观光,看看城堡宴会厅、马车厅庭院和庄园展览,当然你还可以假装是受了女王陛下的特别邀请。
