Question in mind: The seven days of the time, and hit it with friends and see life's most beautiful scenery. Membership to the depths of the text bears the imprint in the memory. In order to be able to some day in the future, using your fingertips and gently stroked it. Remembrance from the young years, and parting friends. At that time will feel calm and smile bloom. Because the miss. And not be forgotten.
Chapter one:
April 26, 2003 at noon.
Has abandoned plans to go to Inagi. Tickets also withdrawn. Oi Kwan home last night in the middle of the night playing cards to intoxicate themselves, but until now still very depressed. Ride home, the road car ryucheon more persistent, exhaust and dust surrounded me. Think of the pictures of the snow-capped mountains Inagi, glaciers, valleys, lakes, heart on the pain worse. I asked myself, if we say sorry, still have time to do?
If we say sorry, do not yet too late? This sentence had asked himself, yesterday afternoon. After the decision not to go out to see Oi Kwan slowly tear up the itinerary. At that time very much regret it, but was worried about everyone said I was indecisive. But now, surprise, regret the reason why he did not say in the export? I finally understand more clearly his own mind. Is really very, very wanted. Must be sought the views of friends.
Yan MM said, yes, I want to go. Very kind of you! Hug her, I think the tears have to fall to.
Oi Kwan also agreed. Can take place in. Happy simply want to raise hue and cry!
At 9:00 on April 27, 2003 flying start, reaching as far as Chengdu.
8:20 arrived in Hangzhou airport. Carrying a heavy bag, which put a warm clothing, pants, and wash supplies Zhuarong Yi. There VICHY UVB45 + UVA15 of sunscreen, in order to cope with the plateau hot strong ultraviolet. Also prepared a lip oil. We each brought a sleeping bag. Ai-Qun collected our ID cards, Lili soso way after finishing the check-in procedures, Yan then took my filled out health declaration forms. Very successfully boarded the plane. Plane distribution of breakfast, we take a mask, no one dare eat. When the plane landed after the ridicule machine on a middle-aged men: to see to eat off the mask, put on eating again, he brought a mask is a psychological comfort ah?
Port security in Hangzhou, a little episode took place: I forgot to put MP3 in the security office, security screeners chasing I have. This is just starting a small thing, but it laid a feature of this trip: I will constantly throw things, constantly looking for things.
Chapter II: SARS, disinfectant and thermometers to Chengdu to sit immediately after the rent Cherokee sport utility vehicle, from Chengdu to Dujiangyan, and then the altitude of 4,500 meters Balang Shan, late to live on Long Zhen. The next morning play Siguniangshan, Siguniangshan known as the mother of snow-capped mountains, one because of its high, two because of their insurance. In Siguniangshan the Shuangqiao Gou, Yaokan the surrounding snow-capped mountains, high Siguniangshan yes, but also followed by a big girl mountain girl mountain two or three girls mountain. Kham Tibetan guide told us the legend, Beautiful Lady for the protection of everyone, was heavenly cut his head, so more than any other mountain to be short. Afternoon, catch a ride to Xiaojin County, passing David thought of my father interested in history, so the Red Fourth Army's rendezvous area in which I took two photos. To eat lunch in Xiaojin County, there is a paste eggplant has done extremely delicious.
Along the way, beautiful scenes and worried about the same in the. In Chengdu airport, Yan Zhang MM see (the driver) said that the first sentence is this: do not mind we give your car disinfect it? Having so he took a sleeve, inside and out to the Cherokee came a big disinfection. Did not think the locals may be more than we fear SARS, to prevent well-hundredfold.
Chengdu and Aba junction, vehicles were stopped and disinfected once a local government. At the junction of Aba and Ganzi, our car was again stopped by a group wearing protective clothing disinfected. A total of seven times this line has been disinfected to passers-by five times, back to passers-by the second, but also because of the sky too late to escape once. We are growing used to the taste of disinfectant, scrub residual disinfectant on the seat of the gestures are also becoming increasingly skilled. Measuring body temperature with five times, Inagi once, Aden once, three airplane back and forth. Every point of a county epidemic prevention should be the registration ID card, Oi Kwan is the identity cards of Shenzhen, Guangdong, always be required to measure body temperature. Personal is also alarmed to call out: she is in Guangdong! It looks like as if to seize a wanted criminal. We can only explain over and over again: her years of work in Hangzhou, and not Cantonese. Huang said that, I have never thought of before, people across the country so hostile to Cantonese. "SARS" period is very move, let us insight into the strength of the party's mass - mass response. Daocheng hard to imagine such a remote place, there are such strict quarantine posts. Vulnerable to the attack ah. Change is the grasping agents, it has long captured eight of the 10.
Nor is it the same vehicle as we are obedient, there is a truck driver and the police Mamalielie to negotiate, he said that his daily between Aba and Ganzi at least twice, the result has been disinfected at least four times a day. Can not save points syrup, less disinfection times it? Answer is that on top there are provisions to be disinfected. I do not care elsewhere, he does not give you disinfect, anyway you go to me to be disinfected.
On the road, we have felt the common people live in fear. The fear of the unknown disease.
Chapter three, the last Shangri-La
April 28, from the day Siguniangshan Long Zhen, proceeds through Xiaojin, Danba, gyda liangzi, 8 the United States, tower of public grasslands, live xinduqiao. Come back when May 2, reverse through these places. To go when the weather is not very good, fog Meng Meng. Come back to see the sun. Here's a few pictures are good shoot.
April 29, is transferred Mountain Day. Of course not referring to the Tibetan people for worship to the Kamiyama mo ceremony held on Mt. This is just the anniversary of my own name to mark the one day climbed over the four peaks above 4000 meters: Gore Temple Hill (4421), scissors Bay Hill (4659), clamp, sa (4718), Haizi Shan (5231) . Ba Langshan off with the day before yesterday, this trip a total turn the five snow-capped mountains over 4000 meters.
This is really a unique place, there are mountains and a unique temper of the Mother of water. Such as taxi companies to Gore temple mountain wind comes up, sideways sweep to the snow goose. Such a hostile environment. Peak grass. Scissors came to Bay Hill, Lifting a bright eyes. The same altitude, in the scissors Bay Hill bend where there are large areas of deep melancholy of the green, pristine creek in the peak and valley in the circulation of frivolity or rich, beautiful natural scenery incomparable. And the Gore Mountain Temple is simply two of the world. Clamp pull peaks is flat, very broad field of vision, in the ridge overlooking the surrounding mountains can be, you can also clearly see Tojiyama the ears, long ears like a playboy. Playboy said that a sign is not a rabbit, but a donkey, on behalf of that stupid mean. Ba Langshan foggy, the Peak mist filled the air, and even unclear to see the road 10 meters away. Experienced drivers, only the middle of the line and passed slowly cement road driving, if the car along the edge of the road opened, there may be fog, confused vision, turning off a cliff! Haizi Shan less oxygen. Oxygen is too thin a.
Haizi Shan is that this climb the most difficult road trip. Click on the overcast days down the mountain was full of large tracts of boulders of different sizes and Haizi. Orogeny ruins left by ancient ice cap is the ancient wilderness, ghastly horror. I began to feel shortness of breath, back of the head Men Men in pain. Dodo blood vessels adjacent to the temple to jump. Road is very bad, the car bouncing forward, I sat in the car flew around. Zhang Yan surprised to say that your lips are purple! I saw the mirror in the face pale, lips blue purple, the whole human eyes are dead, really terrible. Dao Shi, see more do not blame the driver, but also jokingly said that instead of using the most fashionable lipstick. Suddenly felt a cool lips. First touch, full hand blood. Startled companions. Later came to see me unharmed, but also very happy. If you want to add luster to the line, they said happily, later to write "Yang Baa Baa plateau spurting in mind," to mark the occasion. Take a look at gang reform package of the guy! Fortunately, this section passed quickly. 20:00, we arrived at the Inagi.
Prior to the Inagi, was also stopped at a checkpoint checks, a human hair a thermometer's temperature. It was pouring rain, the Tibetan people in the military tents, gave birth to a fire. We Wai-fired heating systems. Really miss the warmth of spring to the south at this time ah.
Inagi we live in Tibetan at home. Zhuang Bo is called the master, the former bailiff Daocheng Public Security Bureau deputy captain, more than 40-year-old had retired to concentrate on his family's home operated a small hotel. His small hotel has 45 beds, single, double, triple and multi-Yi Gai human evil, rather, "sparrow may be small but complete" appearance. Rice from his house, mistress of the house burning, taste good. Originally, we Tibetans have been concerned about the rice we were not used, thought his family was authentic Sichuan firing methods, and this meal let's appetite. The legendary drink buttered tea also, and placed in the tin pot. Owners pay attention to hospitality, dedicated to our Tea Party. The cup is a kind of traditional boxwood wooden bowls, silver lining, in the middle protruding a Daikin button. SARS period, I can not use this cup. But the real gold real silver, ah, see DC saliva, so would like to take pictures as a memento. Table similar to the color and bowls, together with lighting at night more difficult, so in order to highlight the effect, I had a bowl below the gold velvet cushion ----- ------ That is TV sets from the master to help me TV tear down the past. He served as my nonsense, than I am happy. I could go do my guests free. Wash after dinner sleep. His family visit the toilet is the cleanest one encountered Surprisingly, there are flush toilets! Ai-Qun Long Yan Tai Yue.
April 30 afternoon, finally arrived in Aden. Riding into the mountains.
Road Yes, it is paving a gravel road. Horseshoe blah sounds, we are on horseback, next to the groom also have a small wait, imposing go again.
More than three hours riding horses. Mountain Road, the roadside from time to time one or two big black rubble. This is the Tibetans Mani Dui, they carved in stone scriptures, and then stacked in pyramid shape, a small one meter high, as large as three meters high, the form of random, of blessings. Green radish hanging in the pine on the drift, and some like the Grimm fairy tale of the Black Forest. Will there be green dwarf forest demon do? Fairy tales in which they will be hidden gold coins in the winter to spring and then taken out. Pen a small fortune can be made good, Zhang Yan and my eyes wide open and stare at each of a suspicious rock joints. Huang Ai-Qun ± a ± a mouth: naive. I decided he: If you picked up gold coins, one is not to her. Let Huang regret bar!
Reach an elevation of more than 4600 meters of Luorongniuchang is already 18 o'clock a.
1923 the United States botanist Joseph F · Rock had gone to visit here, too, note the detailed notes. In 1934, one of his friend, James Hilton, according to his notes, wrote the famous "Lost Horizon", thus "Shangri-La" in the name of a hit. The Luorongniuchang said to this day and the scenery remains the same as the original Rock arrived. The passage of time, Hongyan not old. If the Rock Izumishita have known that she might Zuoheganxiang?
Sunset, quiet secluded valley by a cool light shine. Clouds wrapping the central Mak Yong Feng, Yamashita's Kongkuo grasslands dotted with scattered cattle herds.
The face side of the mountain tops, from scratch. Streamer Lie Lie creaked. A strange world unfolded before our eyes.
About seven days in the mountains dark night of living in army tents. Tents Zhongyuan instinct to live 12 individuals, but now only three of us, looked very empty. There is no electricity, only to find Tibetans to be the two candles, plug in the beer bottle. A white candle in the wind sway. Distortions in the shadow of our wall in the account. Ye Feng hum creaked. Because of the cold (and fear), lay down on the bed very early. Bed 80 centimeters wide, above the shop can not see the color of the sheets have been. Bedding is covered with butter odor. Do not know the main office or the office is not used to before going to bed for a cup of buttered tea? Fortunately, we have sleeping bags. Tent surrounded by air leakage, it is useful mattresses, stacked up, one can plug outlet.
Then the kettle SIGG can not imagine playing a role: poured them into the boiling water, wrapped in insulation kits, actually that is not hot, heat slowly release can when a hot water bottle to warm blanket! The night in the cold even more valuable. Later, it even has a nickname: the value of 200 yuan soup Pozi.
Morning of May 1.
Eyes open, bright days have been great!
Sunlight from the tent roof shed, the outside horse called the barking of dogs were called into a bustling, can not do anything so we are actually dead sleep. Dudunangnang to get up. 1 inquiries, 8:30! We did not bring the table. Usually by phone of time. Pro mountain before because there is no cell phone signal, no band, full on the foot of the mountain Shangri-La Villa (Do not look at the name of style, in fact, on a big tent). 7 o'clock last night before going to sleep will urge small groom called us. They are Mankoudaying can be proved to the concept of local people do not have time. This does not, and so we are all getting up, and have not seen them.
Memories of last night, which felt extremely confused. Probably fall asleep until early morning bar. Qianban Ye are Tibetans singing and laughter. Tent late at night to play Ping Ping is the sound of the snow. Huang said she was sleeping even later, it was to our tent rounds, she should be uttered.
This photo is my Luorongniuchang filmed in the morning. Goba is a mountain valley, became firmly established distance, see: Xian Nairi, central Mak Yong, summer Doje 3 Kamiyama. They sky, perennial snow, Tibetan King said: Goddess of Mercy, King Kong, Manjusri.
Horse walking in a narrow steep mountain path, to push the cliffs. I gingerly pulled out the camera,抢拍a few. To be completed and the government is already a sweat. In the winter, when I have not tried to reach Inagi, did not see the spring pasture, a regret.
Climbed to 5000 meters peaks seen on the sea of milk. Relaxed pace, what altitude sickness is gone. Then they climbed 200 meters of the slope, watching colored sea. A lot of people to the milk, the sea will have no strength left, colored sea of regret into their hearts. We are so fabulous, the heart does not skip non-anxious air, than in the 4000 meters on the plateau is also the spirit! I remember the day before had been to Chong Gu Temple, dilapidated temples, there is only one monk. Before God, I wish a little wish: let us be able to sea on a colored bar. Efficacious really thought of. Oh, the letter there, do not believe it had no.
Bad weather, colored sea are not as Whatever You Want. Do not shoot it. To remain a memory in the hearts of bar.
With this in mind in the 5600 meters of the snow-capped mountains, I proudly held up a SIGG water bottle to show off to the Oi Kwan: Look, not only I will come up, but also load 600 grams! Kettle at the moment like me glory.
We are on the mountain a rest for a while. Then down the mountain. Or go that path, slope is too steep, we must dismount on foot.
My brother bought for us to play the greatest role in MONTRAIL Tubu Xie, thick soles to protect the feet closely. Case of stone over stone, with water over the water, we have wantonly-pat through a muddy mountain road, and sometimes all the way down the mountain along the streams. Anyway, it's waterproof performance is good, and good shoes is a need for such use!
Turn on the road also met the Tibetan mountains. Dressed in colorful costumes. Kham handsome guy, loud greeting to us: You Well! Receive our response, dark face, smiling.
Chapter 5:
In order to facilitate access to, I hung the bag on a portable packet. If you into the Gai Bang, I have at least five bags of elder bar. However, much more bags, it's very worry about: Along the way, each stop taking pictures back seat after I began to mumble a few bags: glasses in, hat, water bottle in the. . . Hey, the camera sets it? Zhang Bin, parking, parking!
Facts have proved that often sets the camera in my bag, always a false alarm. Therefore, Zhang concluded that: you in this way constantly Zhaoa Zhao. However, nothing lost.
When I launched again, when he suddenly felt a lot lighter bags. Kettle spout is also linked on the left swinging. My pot do?
Small groom rushed to help me look for, they find the way back across the creek, lightweight figure immediately disappeared into the mountain bend. I feel very calm, knowing be brought back. Perhaps it is subject to Kamiyama's call? Sure enough, half an hour after the little groom asthma Shishi to come back. Can not find, she said Hill, who may be transferred seized.
That pot of matte paint with light green paint, but also to pay sandwiched irregular geometric patterns, very beautiful. I imagine it will eventually appear in a small dark room at home, may be planted a small contingent of gladiolus? Is also a good outcome ah.
Chong Gu Temple, then back down the mountain, looking pearl sea, shining in the sun, such as jewel-like flash. Coincidentally we have one left, day of rain. This piece of beauty, only to fall on my camera.
Has also succeeded in capturing a group of squat love photos.
Design dialogue:
The fish asked, Sir, you know that the fish is happy?
Ai-Qun answer, not my son, I know how I do not know the fish is happy?
May 2. Leave Inagi. Is a very sunny day.
Plateau sunshine, through the clear blue sky and the deep valley. People suddenly and peace of mind. I like the freedom of the vast. Deep in our hearts warm and sunny.
Looked up and feel the sun. Feel that this life good and there is such a picture and sound, slowly aftertaste.
Chapter six:
Car speeding on the road in the shining sun in the windows of the spot a large shed. Fresh lofty sky, roadside rhododendron in full bloom, the color seems to be thick to spray fire to.
Suddenly remembered a previous friend's e-mail.
A never-end, people walking slowly becoming uphold and stubborn. Because they do not know the end of this trip, we can only choose the firm. This is the only reason. In the city's concrete jungle, we are a strong people. Frustrated or disappointed, whether they will take themselves to protect Yanyanshishi too. However, there will be bloody scars. Is the heart of the rift forever.
When can confront their own. Return to pure and simple.
At this point, I think I know the answer.
I believe that human nature is good. This is a talent to us by nature, not from the city.
Chapter 7: end of the ride at noon on May 4 aircraft, two hours later arrived in Hangzhou. Back to our home, very suited for city life. There is love our group pulled straight red light running joke, there are Daoshi Cha does not take over, late for work situation. Overall, however, this play enjoyable agreeable. Yong-Ming blue MM's words, called "Cheng Si bold, and starved to death timid."
Inagi Waterfall 50000 people last year, this year had an estimated hundred thousand people, the extra is to click "51" was set to estimate the amount of room. The results of the national SARS, travel agencies do not organize groups of tourists can not come. Space under the reception strength, enjoyed by us all through!. At an altitude of more than 4000 meters of Luorongniuchang the past 51 9 people live in five shops, there are a lot of people no place to sleep. This time, we are three people living in 12 tent shop! In our play period of time, Inagi full of tourists may only have a dozen! Hillsides that only three of us, play beautiful great. I take a lot of landscape photographs, do not hide who pick the lens, lightly pat compositions are really good.
To start planning the next trip. July back to Xinjiang.
Height of summer, ripe fruit of Xinjiang. Wandering should also come back.
Just that, my friends, we have the opportunity to arm do the same tour?
- Would like to this article, dedicated to my dear friends: Ai-Qun, Yan MM. Blessing the next day, peace and happiness!
