II: Journey running account
2001/4/26, sunny morning at the Hongqiao Airport before departure, I did not realize I had made a mistake-50L a medium-intensity of the Mid pack backpacks and 30L of the Day pack too many pairs of trekking equipment in terms of unnecessary things (and later come back to after I found that half of the things that is not necessary to take, including a pile of clothes, rain gear, food and medicines, as well as plastic bags & plastic boxes), but I was a big bag for the back there are so points backpacker taste and cool to steal it.
The afternoon, Lijiang, China and Pakistan are waiting for the airport departure, colleagues and the two multinational consulting firm, talk on the Miss, and found that foreigners with the car prior to the multinational consulting firm, is also - Lijiang trip is in "such a small world" in surprised in the beginning (and Lijiang, give us the "world so small" surprise is far from over)
After the Lijiang colleagues and I have lived in the ancient city of Sun Yee On Street International Youth Hostel, this hotel's atmosphere so that fascinated me, cheap, clean, comfortable beds, clean and private bathroom facilities for the public, in front of bulletin board close to the tourist The hand-drawn maps and inviting peers posts, as well as travel photos, while the front of the door is a small downstairs bar + bars + restaurants.
Because the 5 / 1 craze yet to come, we are living in an old building two small earth, to lay down their luggage. Just strolling the streets of Lijiang. May be brought up in the southern small town, I Lijiang water other people's style, there is not much surprises feelings, but the water is clear and Lijiang in the torrent, but the water is calm in Suzhou but hazy, Lijiang water really gives me a vivid sense of joy and happiness another.
After eating dinner stroll in the street a bit and want to hear Naxi ancient music, but the two I do not have music in the cells, she is Malay, do not appreciate Chinese folk music, so go back to sleep for the next day of the Yulong Snow Mountain line for preparation.
2001/4/27, sunny morning up in the hotel restaurant were asked for a breakfast, after eating a seat 8-way to the Yulong Snow Mountain to the CMB, because as early as the way to only I and my colleagues two passengers, others are local , the driver and we were talking, and then told we could go to cover fare evasion by him - hey, agreed.
So at the toll station before the driver we have to put luggage put away, the glasses off, posing as locals. Yunshan Ping to the next, each of us to pay the driver 30 yuan, anyway, cheaper than tickets + fare.
Well, climbing - looked like a sheep, like tours of tourists, and we slowly climbed up along the trail and spent 45 minutes on the top rope when approaching Yunshan Ping, a local small-courser at once from below ran ahead of us went, leaving our stomachs in a bad mood - finally going to place, we can find our strength and the local ratio of the small hounds no ....
On the mountain was finally the point of self-confidence back and see those passengers also wear a down jacket with oxygen bag, sitting up rope, and Hei hei. There is no happy as long, was found Yunshan Ping does not snow, the grass is not green, flowers are not open, Montreal's cow horse manure. and a bunch of people want you to take their pictures of their charges. bypass a week off and spent 30 minutes down the mountain, go there baishuihe to see - the water is actually very clear, very cool, but there are garbage in the river - Operator , and eat bread before.
Back at the White Sands off, see "Baisha Mural" (very general - and later Songzanlinsi murals ratio) encountered an Shandong MM, they would visit a well-known "old medicine", so to turn, see that "Old Chinese," a face to see if he knew how the house going, and my colleagues and I still roaming the land in Pak Sha Tsuen bar - all the way to the village health clinic even saw one used for artificial rainfall rocket launchers!
Back to the road cut-off of the cars back to Lijiang, a small truck, get off at the Black Dragon Pool Park, entered the Black Dragon Pool Park, turn full circle. The original Old Town of Lijiang's water outflow from the Black Dragon Pool Park, Lijiang depends on clean water, or in the Black Dragon Pool Park, the most wonderful.
Xi Shun all the way down to return to the ancient city, Shandong MM fleet that beckons to us, because she came back early, then enjoy the lunch, chatted, she told us that the "old Chinese" story, interesting was.
The evening meal, they suddenly encountered the two Shanghai MM, they intend to play the first day after tomorrow Lugu Lake, to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, a good idea, so we changed to a tiger jumping tomorrow, the idea of walking instead of first-Lugu Lake . After dinner, to the Lijiang bus to buy tickets, go to the bus stop for half an hour before.
Came back at the hotel met an old black-rosh, Australia, and we go the same way. Then arranged to meet tomorrow, went to the station, a taxi can save money points.
2001/4/28, sunny morning, up to the station, on the bus and found only a few locals and other visitors are to the lake, all the way to laughing, especially the driver side of the two Tianjin, people high horse large, where desperately bragging, it is interesting ... there is poor local people, was our "strictly" no smoking, all the way to very hard for me to desperately look for opportunities to get off. while a local Daisow even worse, all the way to Ba the windows, vomiting, I can only accompany her back hair.
To the Lugu Lake, piles of visitors to two human heads in Tianjin, noisy start to find hotels, but I and my colleagues and the old black-rosh live together "HuXi Tea House", the proprietress Kosei tea house is a stranger, there is keeping everyone else thousands of miles away feeling good is strange that she went so far as can be done live services.
To lay down their luggage, and a Singaporean form a small four person team began to Moso Island, Georgia around the lake to where to go, talk while walking in the park half an hour out of Moso, we have detached from the residence of the noise, we Suddenly, without any intent to stop, that moment the world is so quiet, so people feel leisurely - a quiet lake there is no wave, quietly, was not birds, quiet road not have a car, evening glow, all of the features are is so soft, and we enjoy it at this time in pure serenity.
Returned casually to eat something, you look at the night singing and dancing performances Mosuo people, frankly speaking, I am not interested in, and later Tingna rosh speaking tourists rushing to and that those who lead the dance Mosuo MM photo, action is very violent and engage in a very unpleasant - Hey, ah the quality of domestic tourists.
Came back to see the day go the same way the two Sichuan MM and that the two foreigners in the chat, listen to a return to the original MM is the two Yeda classmates come together to play, one of the PPMM both my husband and children, and the cause of Youcheng (than her husband), on the other students come out to play alone. is an interesting figure.
The lake before going to bed to the stars, Wow, and my hometown stars in the night sky than the shy, those big stars in the wanton flicker, show you a different night sky. I love the stars so bright, I really should bring a sleeping bag come to camp ...
2001/4/29, clear up after the weather good, wandered the lake's boat points, large groups of tourists have been the starting unit, we have waited for a while, there is a pair of young men and women from Beijing and we started the morning with a boat The rafting.
Chat when they told us they are coming in Lijiang rental of his own, and also intends to Yongning play, all the way to talk very harmonious. I did not eat at the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain of bread for breakfast, enjoyed a meal in the Lugu Lake Central happy breakfast.
On the plateau, under the strong sunlight, clear lake water, as if by magic, facing the sun to see the lake water is so clear deep blue, while carrying the sun, the lake is full of temptations Yingying flash the blue-green, I can not stand the temptation, so took out my spoon, ladle starting point, try a bit - Wow, a little sweet!!!
Looked at the toast on the island, only a small lamasery not been completed, and then we rafting to inside service than the Island, up and found the mountain should be good, so we went to the lake along the trail, but found that because the thorns blocking Road, there is no way along the lake in the past.
How to do? Take a look at the lake more than a stone, water and shallow, just take a rock on the foot pad around the bar! After a hard labors + a woman who fell into the water price, we have finally to the island, after a rise, but found that the above are trail to the back. I do this journey No. folly.
Although this is the price a bit large, but certainly is worth, in the lake I photographed a snake in the water to rest, photos, after washing out that no one seen a snake in the water - the lake water clarity is evident.
We are for ourselves to the island after the excitement, big shoot pictures of, a top down PLMM curl Tingting to go to the other side do something for show, asking her boyfriend, "whether or not to make up makeup ah?" - Impressed! Admire!
Back to the lake's boat points out of 35 yuan per person, and then point to eat at noon in the lake carp lake Moso soup, Moso local people burning laws generally Unfortunately, the fresh carp.
Afternoon, nothing, or take the lake it, walked slowly from the Moso Sam Ka Tsuen, the road to see rosh in the lake under the shade of a tree do nothing, really enjoy.
In the Sam Ka Tsuen, where my colleagues want to give up today's lake walk, so we went to the above the highway, just encountered a busy schedule, traveling to foreigners, is a mustache and hair are all white old man, his eyes red, and told us he had just walked around the lake and spent 9 hours, while before the charging station can see a small waterfall-OK, the next goal is this.
Climbed to a small waterfall that was real, after a "small" waterfall, and put it back to the Mosuo Park, co-workers can not stand the hotel have no place to bathe the confusion, it was decided tomorrow, back to Lijiang.
End the meal is another encounter the two Shanghai MM here too, small world.
2001/4/30, sunny early in the morning we drove back from Lugu Lake in Lijiang, in the post-Ninglang interchange along the old back, finally able to walk a new path is not to eat soil啦. Back to Lijiang colleagues bath change clothes immediately, women do .. .
Old Town of Lijiang at night roaming the land, in the stone bridge accidentally discovered an outdoor sporting goods stores, many other things, the boss is also very warm, it also provides a free map to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, just fine for.
2001/5/1, waking up a clear look at, except I am a Chinese, huge earth where all eight foreigners!
According to plan, today is our last half a day in Lijiang, I looked at the morning rush at the Lion Rock, down and then watched sanyanjing and Wood House, to buy something for my sister (invalid Investment:-D), afternoon Lijiang bus station catch a ride to the bridge, the bridge took the big bag on the police station, they begin to walk in Tiger Leaping Gorge.
Trekking Tiger Leaping Gorge is a full-line bridge - great with the upper, middle and lower range of the three tiger jumped stone, there are generally three days, and we chose to Hetaoyuan from the bridge by car, and then start the journey back to bridge, is the least costly route on foot, a section of the most beautiful scenery, but as long as 2 days.
Go on the road a car stopped to talk about a good price to Tina's GH 30 yuan, all the way to further enlist the two walk way go back to Tina's GH photographer, hey, so apportioned down, we can only spend 30 yuan to the Woody's GH啦.
By Woody's GH, the proprietress told us that there are a bunch of dolls, where the evening look, a shocking five adults and a child of the foreigner +5, from just walking to the 8,9-year-old has.
Put down your luggage reminds us of the riverside to see the results there are locals halfway to collect "money from" strange, not a bird, she backtrack. Just up, they saw those two Shanghai MM on the road to go - a small world . to ask them, turned out Tina's GH fully booked ...
The evening meal surprised to find the hotel balcony on a tent, two "heavily armed" men and women, where busy, so, open a chat, and turned out that the man was in Beijing outdoor sports enthusiasts + rookie, this time prepared piles of equipment and girlfriend, playing with Tiger Leaping Gorge, back a lot of equipment, some equipment (machetes, cylinders) because there is suspicion of contraband also spent a lot of twists and turns, a departure from the big, 35Kg of equipment almost did not let him In the afternoon the sun heat, sweating last climb came, and found that everything above the room and board, while his girlfriend when the romance came, and insisted not live in terrace.
I almost want to laugh, but one would like to No, this is not the五十步笑百步, but for my colleagues is an old devil, why, experienced that, if I take it for granted, I will die is difficult to see, no more than he was good to哪里.
2001/5/2, sunny
6:00 get up, ate a few pieces of hard tack began the first day of trekking, from Woody's GH slowly go halfway with locals to collect "money from," gave him 2 yuan, it continues to go - the case of foreign person can pretend to understand it, get rid of entanglement.
Down to the riverside, in a large cavity Whitehead photographed image, washing out and post back the river is almost lumped together, as if waves of people inside the probe, it is interesting. All the way to the river are the rocks, ghosts know that piece of is.
May is the dry season, in the riverside rapids can not feel the momentum, so we will rise along the mountain, 9:30 in the Tina's GH edge of the red arrow on the mountains, saw that in Great Falls, the diversion canal along the way to go, 11: After the arrow 30 under the guidance of the way, and finally to the famous Half way GH
Tiger jumped a good way to go, as long as physical support, basically no problem, but in Great Falls that period the person has a fear of heights is not appropriate, while a few hundred meters of steep rock walls, one side is a clear drains water, the middle is the mountain half a meter wide, that will let you clear the water had been somewhat confused impression that the foot of the mountain moving, while the edge of a few hundred meters of steep cliff is so deep. Though I and my colleagues do not problem, but still feel that the psychological impact on our way.
By Half way GH, feels like the home, simple, really. So we're welcome啦, umbrellas stuck into their own balcony, then start a la carte menu is a roll of bamboo, very interesting, written in English is horizontal, Chinese yes Shu Xie (if you see a sideways look at Asians in the bamboo, he is definitely not Chinese)
After a child, a pair of men and women prepared a large package of equipment to, and evidently they are tired enough, and eat well, and we all live down on the balcony talking to, and originally they are from Shanghai, the male is Shandong Shanghai native who is now Canada's immigration, woman, a native of Shanghai MM.
Yesterday, they jumped into the next Tiger that MM stamina after a moral one go after able to come up, and had to hire Bata Tai up, but today that MM carrying 50L of the package, come here, do not want to move, while those Boys should also strive to continue the afternoon of the evening can go to the bridge project. hey, how can. (The result was a long afternoon nap MM, to the evening when we were eaten up and taking a bath before dinner meal)
Afternoon at the Half Way GH rest really enjoyed the strong sun shining on the plateau, under the balconies on the lazy to look at a few kilometers across the steep cliff and distant corner of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain exposed, at the foot of the Jinsha River is a Pentium , a plump on the veranda, where the Lan Mao wandering (most famous cat, you can see its Youth Hostel Lijiang photos:-D), and a bunch of like-minded people, where a break chat, but also below the balcony The "best in the world toilet" to enjoy while watching the magnificent scenery to facilitate the "self-service", TNND, and that feels really - cool, calming ah. the best in the world such a luxury toilet, but what is five-star hotels are not available Hei hei.
Half way GH in the most intense feelings of the Chinese people than foreigners less, the day seems to have only four Chinese, accommodation, while the foreigners there are twenty and thirty.
Half way GH von boss is an interesting character, treating others with sincerity, is still willing to live in the afternoon is not busy and you talk about a few stories, so in the afternoon, we have to listen to him talk about the Tiger Leaping Gorge, High Way, and his Half way GH's origin.
At Tiger Leaping Gorge, the would have been a simple repair roads before the Cultural Revolution (now the predecessor of Tiger Leaping Gorge Road), in the nineties a lot of foreigners use this route to travel on foot, the mid-90s, due to a landslide, a foreigner killed in the Tiger Leaping Gorge, and his anxious parents because of her son, in the Tiger Leaping Gorge, where to find a more than a month, did not find their son, they unexpectedly found a mountain people who take the other a path from generation to generation, which is now high way, so soon after they go back on foot to travel inside the spread of foreigners.
With a small increase in road travelers, veterans home, body and belongings of the von boss began to borrow money to buy food beverages business to start, and soon he found that many people travel far and often spend the night in the mountain home, so he Bian Jiang organize their own humble little house, and began his hotel services.
Incredibly, LP immediately put his three-bed GH as a tiger jump high way in the middle of the only places where you can stay, the business is so booming, and now he is to have 48 beds, "Global well-known" Hotel boss啦. However, because the LP Feng bosses said there is no immediate update their information, many foreigners still thought he was only 3 of the GH-bed:-D
Although business is booming, but the boss did not change his Feng simplicity and enthusiasm of the mountain character, only this one of the conditions and he was not, as some sectors (such as ZGDX) as effected a price hike, food and accommodation costs are cheaper, but also dig that he gave us a small telescope to see the mountain scenery.
On Shan, Feng told us that the boss can not help but Lijiang earthquake, he said that exploded as afar, like Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, across the mountains of plants have been swept away, revealing shining white rock, a quarter of an hour after the The dust floating down the mountain all things dyed white, and there are a large slate of thousands of square sliding into the river, drying up the river about half an hour. the power of nature is so great, and now the white ravine across the mountains are still describing the Lijiang earthquake of soul-stirring.
99 years to have a Chinese reporter walked into this mountain, and had previously been the only foreigner to go high way, go back and made an introductory tour tiger jumped the article, so this road began to figure domestic tourists, while the 2000 year's Spring Festival is even more interesting to squeeze an entire room, the point where the Chinese people. but generally speaking, or foreigner tourists are more common.
My experience is also a high way routes were too few Chinese who travel organization's so-called "Tiger Leaping Gorge Tour" is a road car at the foot of the mountain Dou Yiquan, I met a lake MM told me that she went to tiger jump , there is no meaning, I think she simply could not wear shoes to go high way, simply can not understand the high way on the tiger jumped the beauty and hard to climb after the SRP Pumian feelings of pleasure.
Other hand, domestic tourists to have more, and uneven quality is also cause for concern. According to Feng boss said that because of not allowed to firewood, but also regular power outages, coupled with solar water heaters are expensive, and his GH has been a hot bath problems, and domestic tourists with hot water is greater than the amount of foreign tourists, but also made him a headache.
After dinner finally arrived after a long wait for Feng boss team, 16 foreigners, in the courtyard of the three tables placed to fight the long table, laughing and begging, very happy to look, but also to congratulate each other, said they are Sean's GH in the bridge by the proprietress of Australia led the way running up, and I believe that those foreigners that we simply take the mountain Mo Fabi. (in addition to say one thing starting to go high way bridge is very challenging, and along the way up to the final 28 bends give you exhausted.)
Well, and von boss set a good breakfast tomorrow's content (2 pancakes only) and time, sleep啦.
2001/5/3, sunny morning when I found in Half Way GH to commemorate the addition of a 1, 3 insect bite big bag, and asked my colleagues, all normal, TNND, I Do insects so tempting right?
Eating breakfast, I had something left to the men and women that come to Shanghai, we set off to see if the table is a 7:00 look like (6; 30 dawn), all the way to go, and we do not walk slowly, but the road was the starting later The foreigners than a month :-(.
In the rest of the journey, I found Half way GH is not the only opening a GH of the High way, and on the road we see that there is a Naxi GH has just come from the bridge turn turn the 28 passengers should be a temptation.
Gone through a 28 bend, because we are back to go down the road, without feeling tired, but look at the rocks filled with words of encouragement, it seems that simple.
Gone through the last paragraph, there is no shade of mechanized farming shielding dusty road, followed by the asphalt road to the bridge, hey, look at car tour of the passengers, stole my heart cool - these people are not as good as home watching television, count what travel ah.
Finally returned to the bridge, 12:00 to get the luggage inside the police station and saw a few small bully police training, small bullies everywhere do, not because it is in the border town and disappeared.
After dinner at the bridge, he saw that indifferent people, and looked old and ordinary proprietress also ask the way to answer foreigners in English Jiji cooing with admiration admire.
Sit at the bridge of the CMB to Zhongdian, Zhongdian city in the afternoon, take bus 3 to the breast River, and put it intends to stay down, then Songzanlinsi go and see.
1 to Songzanlinsi, go look after, there is no meaning inside a big hall of smoke, a pile of letters and what is nothing to believe in the Han Chinese have been living Buddha, where innocently cheated. Fresco painting, but a good to see pretty good. looked at murals, suddenly met yesterday in the tiger jumped the two students are walking together, co-workers about their chartered tour tomorrow, Bita Lake. but because breast River are relatively isolated, there is no bus, so my colleagues decided to to live in urban areas in order to save time, so that tomorrow can have ample time to swim Bita Lake.
Out after the urban area, the result almost could not find room, then finally found one, three human, 150 yuan, (extortion ah!), My colleagues have already give up, and stay here with us.
2001/5/4, sunny Zhongdian is Henlan urban, and sand large, no trees, anyway, on and Shangri-La does not matter. No matter, and first bought a bus to Dali evening berth, and four individuals rental of vehicles on the road package, on a good 120 back and forth, they begin a journey Bita Lake.
By Bita Lake, from the West to enter the edge of the villagers commend our riding, hey, we were all Tiger Leaping Gorge, where four out of their own, and this point lakeside stroll What kind of a small case.
Was gone for a while, we find that walking is really a good choice, flat Shashi Lu, covered with virgin forests Usnic is worth a step by step, gradually came to appreciate and spent a half hour to the lake, inaction Bita Lake Lugu Lake better than that, the time and great, so we started four individuals around the lake away.
From the West to the South along the lake path slowly, all the way to but not flowers, only a few of the Guduo camellias, to noon, we have been to the South of the cruise ship pier. A little rest, eat the dry food with a , irrigation point of water, we began the rest of the lake on foot.
Surprised us is that this period of almost no way - perhaps we have lost, we are dark inside and deciduous forests, thorn been a struggle. I can not stand, quickly cut the root to make bamboo canes, hands and feet to climb out, Oh, there is a not deserted the meadows, Zhu Zhang and ground rely on the guidance of cattle manure, and finally passed, and climbed over the ridge, this time we have four individuals have fragmented into three directions, and I crossed in the final straight at the entrance to a large meadow, and they are in front of 1:00 in the meadow edge around to the road.
Anyway, we came out, back roads, there is nothing that we have difficulty啦, climbed over a hill, I started on the road with a jump Lianpao, let those who ride the tourists that is easy to walk here, exclaiming To dismount and so on - hey, they do not know our objectives on foot hard and see the joy.
Back to the entrance, the driver is also very surprised that he had not seen you can walk in, walk out, we told him we have a circle around the lake, feeling that way should have no problem, hey, did not tell him that we later hard.
Back to Zhongdian city, in a Sichuanese opened a small restaurant inside a meal, and the owner chatted a while, went to a car.
Dirty sleeper car is more than the memory of former colleagues - and she was five years ago, sat to the marble of the sleeper, because many foreigners to sit in this car, so she chose to sit in this sleeper, hey, did not say, with the result that she a cold, unable to bear the air inside the windows.
2001/5/5, overcast with rain After a night of travel, morning 6:00 we went to the next pass, we take the CMB to 6:30 Dali, in the Guardian No.3 GH to live down the road, the boss is a Korean. the edge is the armed police detachment resident + prison, hey, very safe.
So eat breakfast, I have come all the way to eat the same thing with my colleagues, but this time my colleagues see me in the end what they eat, she may not want me always to follow her, so I point the sandwiches, and a cup of green tea, and my colleagues is a sandwich and a cup of tea, the waiter with a small bucket to pour a glass of tea she was.
Perhaps the relationship between tea in the morning to vent my colleagues began belly, I took the medicine result was anxious to save her. Colleagues, "Huarong withered" and tell me their own activities, forget about her problem, I roaming the land in the old city of Dali , also see if there is to buy eliminate fleas, lice medicine, I have a big bag can not stand me啦.
The results do not buy drugs, do not need, in a bath for all of the clothes, that's all settled啦.
Dali feeling is that the commercialization of Lijiang dense than the atmosphere, but the commercial development of Lijiang will surely come from behind (unfortunately ah want to go to Lijiang friends early as possible ah!), But Dali is a good-eating, fish and big snail casserole are not Lijiang, Lijiang what ah what Baba, and only reluctantly rice casserole is a delicious civilians.
Colleagues who wish to night, spur of the moment, the hotel restaurant did not have the enthusiastic waiter told us that go to the following "98 restaurant" to where the owner is very enthusiastic.
So I and my colleagues along the way protect the country and went to "98 food and beverage outlets," a small shop, very simple, colleagues, chopped green onion to a bowl of porridge, I would like a casserole of fish, the boss keen to start Ao Yu. Of the Aohao a very long time, but have talked about is really very good.
Eat the rice, back to the hotel rest, it appears that she still can not play sports, so I climb Cangshan one tomorrow.
2001/5/6, overcast with rain in the morning 8:00 am I started out of the ancient city of Dali, along the mountain to the Cangshan embarked on, I chose the route (in fact, no choice, run around) is a hill along the road to protect the country's jade belt road Cangshan (and later discovered the official name is wander Road), after getting lost, strayed into the barracks, was surrounded by two dogs and a series of things, I followed a caravan to the mountains, Cangshan on.
Well, see what we can to play, the cavalry of people told me that you can look at Green bixi, then and in Temple, so I made Ben Green bixi direction of silly, over seven Dragon Pool, streams beautiful, In a block of stone is a one of a small shallow lake, scattered in the mountain streams, a large dog came Xiuliao Xiu me, not interested, they walked away. Green bixi be more beautiful, right? So I started to speed up the pace, hey, for those tourists along the way impressed ...
To the Green bixi, shiver my soul啦, poor water, ah, a little stream, where there is no meaning, and those who are still there, a lot of tourists (because blue bixi yes Cangshan Resonating the upper cableway) and asked people, there is not even place to eat, the poor, I have come such a long time, the empty stomach (big eater of the essence) ...
How to do? So drink water, wipe the sweat, climbed the hill, continue along the road went seven Dragon yudai pools to 12:30 finally a small pool in the seven Dragon restaurant to sit down and asked for a one-off Egg Fried Rice, though Rice where the stone seemed a lot, I quickly resolve it, filling the pot of water, and so on Cangshan the rain stopped, and began to proceed in, and Temple. Suddenly I have discovered that the back wall full of small hotels is the "Seven Star International Cross Country Challenge, "a label, hey, I would have about as athletes啦.
Cangshan gave me the impression that the Qing Qi, especially along the tortuous mountain road forward, suddenly winds fresh rain, suddenly a bright and sunny, the situation quickly transform gives a fantastic feeling, unfortunately, I think of TV drama "" Journey to the West "" monster inside their mountain seems in this way, Hei hei.
In the mid-and Temple, was originally a small temple, I would not be interested in this then, go along the Cangshan rope, and 4:30 pm I finally returned to the city.
Bathing, eating, colleagues told me that there are still before the Cangshan robbed, but because my waiter was the problem of dog bites in dogs asked me what was said seven Dragon side of the pool is not a big dog any good dog, very lucky.
Because of yesterday's "98 eateries," pretty good impression, so we also went to eat dinner there, and wife saw my colleagues, and asked how she and colleagues talk about diarrhea has been good, but constipation, so boss told his colleagues that she had a unilateral Gallus gallus domesticus for her to eat (Gallus gallus domesticus hey, I know), to allow my colleagues to eat - really enthusiastic female boss. you if, Dali, do not forget to "98 restaurant" to take care of business, ah.
Colleagues want to come back to advance to Kunming, it appears that she is indeed the body to rest, well, rookie followed.
2001/5/7, sunny
8:00 we are sitting to Kunming in China and Pakistan started issuing, 12:30's time has in Kunming, and Kunming do, I do not expect to see any natural beauty, it will undoubtedly be rest.
Yunnan hotel stay down, we went to the downtown Golden Square Mabi chicken for dinner, I ate a bowl of "The Bridge fragrant garden" bridge noodle taste good. Mabi chicken and then in the Golden Square side stroll, he saw all the way to widespread advertisements The Hump.
Jin Ma Bi chicken at night after the Tianfu Square Hotel (not in the Golden Mabi Tianfu Square in the chicken restaurant!) For dinner, the boss recommends a fish we eat two, spicy and tender pieces of fish head soup, taste really good.
Eat play this meal, my colleagues seems to have restored the powerful nature, so happy to go haircut, tell me "you go back," so I roaming the land in the center of Kunming, in southwest commercial buildings inside the lottery to buy things got discount, surprise.
2001/5/8, sunny, quiet, and we on the afternoon of plane first flew in Yichang, and then to Shanghai, and 5:50 as the plane landed, our 13-day trip to Yunnan finally completed.
Rookie experience:
1) Equipment: streamlining further streamlined, with a veteran, then a lot of things not to bring, and if you are a Hiker, less than a snow-capped mountains above, Akira, warm clothes and no need for the journey of the most important thing is water, and visor.
2) Lijiang Vs. Dali, I like Lijiang, it is estimated that the beauty of Lijiang will soon be open for business by the extinction of that time, Dali would be a relatively good point, but until there is no development of the ancient city street to the multi-stroll stroll (Bai MM delicious food + clothing Binassi MM more of apparel could be beautiful).
3) Trekking Tiger Leaping Gorge is a rookie to experience a good place to road signs clear, good service, scenery and like-minded people do. Consumption, and small, and hey, the last one of the most with my appetite.
4) The Lugu Lake is a scenic place, and the people are simple, but do not expect to go there to see them "walking marriage", natural beauty is more important to look at human history, I would not count on it.
5) The tourist season, early May in Yunnan is not a good tourist season, the flowers do not open, the water not much, it is recommended to see a picture in mid-May (Zhongdian to be more delays).
6) The charges for package tours in Yunnan is very small, coupled with public moral, very suitable for a family pack of action - but the whole world-dogs can be the same, we must be careful ah.
7) The physical, I basically spent a month before travel time on a weekly basis VI and Sun ran 3,000 meters, so personally believe that strength can also be. In northwest Yunnan tourism will be a very minor breathing spacious feeling, should not be operator altitude sickness bar.
