4. A person's Kunming (2003.7.10-11)
Wujiaba plane landed at the airport when the night was nearly 10:30, and looked worn-out chaos, chaotic management of the airport hall, dodge stay off the crowd pulling advertising, I am a man dragging a heavy box, station night at the airport entrance, at a loss. This point has no bus had. Moment there are N people came forward to pull me take his car. I have installed strong calm, but just want to hurry to escape the next heart so that I do not have the slightest sense of security in this place, and I doubt that this is the Kunming do? Drilling an airport rental, and I said to the CPPCC Hotel (Youth Hostel, in its C Block), in Green Lake the edge of the driver was as expected and asked me if I was the first time come to Kunming to the hotel I would recommend that the the airport to the Green Lake is still very far from now, to go ring road and so on. I looked at night in Kunming, was surprised streets were almost deserted, lonely and very frightening, a surge of gloomy darkness of the night atmosphere, reminds me of that night in Taian. Very disappointed, while still scary drivers will would not be where I go Shui, after all, this city I feel so strange, and that seems to take a very long time to familiar. Thus, under dark vowed never at night alone after entering a strange city with no family.
Rao for a long time for a long time, just remember I have always unsettling peripheral vision is nearly swept the meter, and finally to the CPPCC hotel, by his slaughter of more than 40, and later the owner told me that youth hostels are also here from the airport to a maximum of only 20. Youth Hostel was not my imagination, it looks desolate, no donkeys crowding together Chinese and foreign children, perhaps because of too late. But that gives me a map of home for the first time for those ears to familiar names, Cheung has been the concept of geographical location, to inquire about the owner of the situation is a little more of my strange sense of ease. That night, watching the others, chatting, she felt like a very far distant from elsewhere came, everything is intangible side, anything to seize.
While the boss suggested that I spend a few days in Kunming and more, sign a few playmates, and then go Lijiang, I decided a long time ago gone the next day. At that time my mind only Lijiang, Tiger jump, Kunming, Dali wire disdain for playmate, naturally are all things as a matter of course believe in the saying. The employer also particularly recommend looking for foreigners, muttering under my heart, Well, foreigners, ever since the visa was great TT depressed after I saw the white on the hate. Later discovered that almost all of the bosses have a soft spot for imported donkeys really ah yes they are very rare.
Dawn up and out of the CPPCC hotels, the face of a Wang shining lake is Green Lake has. Did not realize how much beauty of the night shelter. Kunming, sky blue was so thorough, stemmed from the well near clouds, the sun was amazing. To the bus terminal ticket sold at 8:30, and 10:30 there is no a; Dial the airport, said that only the afternoon's vote. Had to submit to humiliation and bought a 11 o'clock to Lijiang, a high fast. I had a person wandering in the streets, in a small roadside noodle shop to eat, to sit quietly while waiting in the Green Lake 11 points to come.
Lijiang high 11 points riding fast, depressed once again begin. Because the ticket money and the head does not match the car they can not, in the passenger terminal has been consumed to more than 1:00. Results to Lijiang is also the time point at 8,9, and again, I broke into a strange Heidengxiahuo in place.
Then look at notebook handy to write the words found in the same day: "flights were delayed, high-Express also delayed, my tour of Lijiang trip seemed doomed from the start will not ring true."
