Through the conversation with the driver along the way, I discovered that he admired Cantonese heart beat, they always have gone through hardships, brave, overcome all kinds of body not adapting, and some just knee surgery soon after to Meili Snow Mountain. We the people of Shanghai has failed to do this, she always bring some squeamish, come to live good, eat well, and fear of hardship. So when I learned to go on the Internet Daocheng Aden, Yemen, 85% of tourists in the Cantonese, they did not feel strange.
Finally, I have a small wish: know a few went to Aden or the Meili Snow Mountain Daocheng friends.
