Decision in Yunnan tour, because can not be reconciled. 2003 May Beijing Pop SARS, can not go out. 11 holidays to catch up with the company moving again, so very depressed. Bent in 2003 in a yearning for a place to leave my footprints. And F hit it off instantly. Start of our 11-day trip to Yunnan.
November 8, 2003 in the tourist off-season trips on the road there are many benefits, air tickets, discount is one. 5 discount fares, but also can save a lot of time. 3 hours from Beijing arrived in Kunming, a large red land. Very close to the airport from the city of Kunming, you can reach the city center by bus. We went straight to the railway station to buy train tickets to Dali did not expect ticket actually sold out. Had no choice but to change long-distance car seat. As are roads, the road from Kunming to Dali 4 hours to 7 hours. In order to pull over a truck driver who, from 2:00 waited until 3:30 before departure. I remember a User's famous remark: Outside the house, put away his foul temper. So patiently endure time.
Exclaimed the plateau the sun, the temperature as many as 27 degrees, while the maximum temperature in Beijing today is 7 degrees. I do not know how many had jumped over the hill, and finally arrived at 10 pm and Dali. The driver with a good heart and a half Mandarin admonished us not to get off and pull the person accosted accommodation to suggest that we live in the state Shimonoseki hotels. Can be found along the way we do not have Shimonoseki hotels. So casually found a cheaper off clouds hotels: double room 30 yuan, as well as television, really cheap. Settle down, the stomach is also empty at 11 pm difficult to find restaurants are still open, but unfortunately eat German passengers with disabilities. Out the door and found next to the surprise is that we are looking for Shimonoseki hotels.

November 9, 2003 Dayan Old Town impression of continued long-distance car ride, at 11 AM arrived at Lijiang. Straight to the ancient city. The sun was shining like a blue mood sunny sky. There is the Northeast's aunt persistent with us, pull us to her family's Inn. Eventually moved to her dedication. In an alley is quiet Fortune Inn. Because it is low season, aunt only cost us 10 yuan each bed.
Do not want to start feeling a moment to stop, aunt to help us better the car to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. In the ancient streets to see much of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and thought about: I will come! Mountain excitement in the car and F discuss: either you want to eat altitude sickness drug, whether or not to rent oxygen ... ... did not expect ticket office staff, said: Today the wind, the big Yulong Snow Mountain Cableway closed. Depressed! Can not get big rope, and we decided to go Maoniuping temporary small ropeway. The results of small ropeway has stopped. Can only be riding on the Maoniuping. Fortunately, my horse good as gold. Qian Ma a small group is very simple and honest, say thank you to him, he smiled simple people. Up to the MAONIUPING can be regarded as close contacts of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Autumn MAONIUPING an subtilis, there is nothing charming scenery. Riding down the mountain near misses, but the F is because it is too tense, sitting right, so that my PP wounded. Back on the road still did not give up, but also to large rope of view, the results of staff work in advance of the. Disappointment and regret. Snow-capped mountains, glaciers, appears to be, and they are not brought together by fate in.
A good night, decided to compensate for what we in the stomach. Night city rich colors, red lanterns Yingliang of each street. We sat on a stone bench outdoor stone table eating characteristics of Lijiang dishes, next to the ancient city of clean river water aspect is really cozy. Eaten with rice, in the colors random walk around in the crowded alleys. The ancient city that is modern and ancient: all kinds of bars, shops; ancient buildings, raw polished quartzite road.

November 10 can not imagine the lake plateau dawn of the relatively late, woke up early to clean up properly, the driver waiting for an appointment to the Lugu Lake Shen master. Quiet city, there are many photographers taking pictures of mist in the old stone bridge, streams, and the Naxi people's residences. Qi and other companions of the Sheung. I never expected that two local people in Changhe a lot of cargo loaded on board. We are unanimously opposed to a few tourists --- 5 hours disk mountain was too dangerous! To fight to assert that two people are very depressed and find other car went. 8 o'clock start to the Lugu Lake. This path of what is real mountain feel the bend 18 and began rubbing his every turn a cliff in the past, will subconsciously grasp handrails, a burst heart palpitations, and later many are numb. At noon arrived Ninglang Xian eat hard food for lunch. Yi Ning Langxian with mainly known as a small Liangshan. The next road is more dangerous, but fortunately, I fell asleep. Woke up to a place called the viewing platform is almost --- you can see panoramic views of the lake. Everyone's eyes lit up. My heart is in the waves - this side of the lake like a blue gem, quietly placed in the arms of the mountains.
Photography at the same time and a lot of busy children deal to buy things. Have a dirty little face five-year-old boy has been pestering us and wants us to buy his walnut. For a basket of good words: sister you Haopiaolianga. . . . . The end he won.
Master driver arranged for us to go to Sam Ka Tsuen boating. Lugu Lake, the boat is called --- Zhu Caochuan need to bow two people paddle, followed by a man at the helm. Afternoon, the lake is not very calm, there are waves. Sister boating there is a tempest Qom. We begged her to sing a song. Her singing is also the same as the lake please Che. Blue lake, waves of boat, crossed the lake of the birds, the sun shining warm body, eyes closed, I have some trance, I do not know where you are feeling.
Aquatic lake are carp, snail, and the silver fish body translucent. Is completely pure green food, baked good taste. Residents in the village continued to rush. We follow the recommendations of the master driver, did not choose big village fell into the water. Because it is already too commercialized, and actually there are Kara ok. To look inside cells the way the village has not yet repaired, in the bumpy dirt road for nearly 20 minutes.
Check-inn called the "Ma clatter microphone." Mosuo language, translated the meaning are: good luck; I love you; ah! And so on. Of course, you use depends on what occasions. Mary clatter of the boss and boss wife is a microphone Mongols, the boss With his beard, appear to be more than that of Mongolia Tengger. They originally opened in Lijiang Inn, this year came to Lugu Lake. Inn close to the lake, on the second floor balcony with hammock, it is suitable for a sunny afternoon to see the lake rickety. Side of wolf-like waiting for everyone to eat dinner and watching the Tiger Leaping Gorge Inn foot wall map of the road to ask the boss; we eat a big cock is being named in the front yard after hospital escape. Laobian mother craft really good, potatoes can be made like the taste of delicacies from land.
Tea eaten enough, the next program is to participate in a bonfire party. Along the way are the dress of the Moso tribe girl. Mosuo residential compound in a yard, bonfire has been lit. Tai said the village bonfire party fell into the water only a show, but residents in the village are invited to join the tourists. Saw a very famous online Tashi handsome guy and a few pretty Mosuo girl. With Xiongxiong flames and cheerful music, dance Moso girl guy up. This is in the past should be the opportunity for them to find their sweethearts, but now has become the national style show performances. Accidentally pulled into one, followed by small group Mosuo jump, a few laps down, panting, after all, is dancing on the plateau. After the program is singing in antiphonal style, no matter what the song, they will be able to sing the mouth. Found that each of them has to pay a good voice. Songs come and go, we sing enjoying themselves. Bustling bonfire party is over, we came to blossoming bar --- a girl called blossoming open Shanxi Inn and bars. To a pot of tea --- smell savory glutinous rice, glutinous taste, drink up and it is bitter mouthful. Just dance Mosuo small group also came to the blossoming after another bar, while singing while drinking. They really like to sing, regardless of ethnic or popular. Has fully proved that they are saying is: From talking, you can sing, from the walk will be dancing! A man named Phuntsok's small group invited us to eat barbecue, hesitated a moment, or agreed to his invitation. We are curious to ask about "men do not marry, women do not marry," walking marriage custom. However, in the outside world seems very mysterious folklore, which to them is well deserved, after all, this is their life. Moreover, with the constant contact with the outside world, young people have begun to accept the concept of marriage. Phuntsok said he would marry in 2008 to Beijing to see the Olympic Games. On our side to eat barbecue (in the Leek know there is a very good name --- Qingren Cao), while chatting, while drinking, listening to them sing. Toast song from the beginning, they take a very much an investment in singing, mostly in their own lyrics and music written for life and for mothers to express their feelings. For those of us only in the KTV people are embarrassed to sing it mouth. Because our songs is not feeling too pale.
12:00 midnight moon were hanging in the deep blue night sky, and lying in the deep blue lake. This night I am a little drunk, a long time could not sleep, listening to the lake shore, thinking forward to those of us curious about the complex people should break into their simple life?

November 11 to stay put in Lugu Lake
F Lugu Lake to see the sunrise, so on the 6:30 alarm clock, the days still dark. I could not bear to leave the warm blanket.
F Yi Tangtang only heard back reports: the sun has not come out. So again to 8:00. Because there is no sun or cloudy appearance.
Plan to go boating today, a small village, fell into the water at noon return to Lijiang. Sitting on the wooden benches outside the bar on the blossoming basking in the sun, chewing apples, watching the wave of shiny blue water, waiting for our Zhucao Chuan. If every morning and can see such scenery, but also look like life?
Novo large lake, this leaves only our small boat. Blue sky, white clouds, as well as the mist-shrouded hilltop Kamiyama --- Lion clear reflection in the lake, Tianhu same color. With the depth of the lake, showing a different blue, you can clearly see the bottom of the lake water plants swaying. Much of the planning to an already call it a day of fishing boats, he said today there are carp and silver fish harvest. We bought some carp soup prepared to allow the boss.
Boating are a middle-aged man has a local black skin, but the length is very like a Mainlander. A question they were shocked to know: He is from Shanghai, called Adu. Is a painter, to prepare long-term residents here. Has been recognized as the local people's godson. Peacetime and Mosuo crafts together. In this he was prepared to complete the Moso language / Chinese dictionary compiled.
Small fell into the water village is a village just beginning the development of tourism. Therefore, traditional culture and lifestyle Mosuo relatively retained better. Village is located in the foot of the mountain, the first thing that catches sight is a large expanse of farmland. A stream runs through the village. The older the mother is the water and washing. The village has many big and small animals: horses, cattle, black pigs, dogs, ducks, dogs are ... ... Although the heads are large, but very friendly, non-washed us strangers grimace in pain. 2 village, some of the shy little girl with us, tell us welcome our home visits, or to wear costumes to the camera. Seen to be subject to other villages of the Lugu Lake, the impact of tourism, but still very shy. The village is only a second-year elementary school, two classrooms, a Otsuchi yard. More than a dozen children, one male teacher. Tables and chairs were donated; two children to push a wheelbarrow full of yard run, to play a great time; other children who are seriously looking at the teacher speaking on the floor paint to write about arithmetic. Said the three-year want to go to other villages and crosses the Hope Primary School. This is the first time I feel the status quo of education in poor areas, regret did not come to bring some stationery. Sunlight is dazzling, and I'm saddened by what he could not do.
Surface of the lake began Piaoqi a film plants, driving a beautiful white flowers. Locals use it for dish, I picked up one tasted, there is no special taste. People began to busy singing in antiphonal style, nice-sounding! Mosuo encountered a beautiful girl. Adu told us that she had encouraged the group as an actor, because the family needed a heads of household, so called back. With certain national leaders who have served and photo. So we are also vying to held her camera. (Now think of it silly)
This beautiful space for us to change the schedule --- we decided to stay another day. Had to live up to our day, such as Shen master. Beard boss said it was normal and many people rely on day by day go on to live for half a month, or decided to stay. The extra time we came to the Taiwanese people pack brother in Mondsee of the racecourse. There are eight beautiful Malaysia and two high-head look after the horses of the monkeys, of which there are two British imports of thoroughbred horses. Big Brother will give horse lessons a day pack, giving the visitors to come to talk about horses and equestrian temperament, he can really love these horses. Equestrian competitions, had won various awards package brother who was a little famous composer.
For dinner Kaoquan Yang, smell elicited almost all of the tourist village, as well as cats, dogs. We eat (grab) tear at the moment. Yo Dada came to Zhu Caochuan bar, very special pub, everyone sitting around the Huotang Bian, baked a bonfire, drinking beer and roast potatoes. Listening to Shen Jie (bar owners) and blossoming, and there are a few foreign friends to play the guitar Chuikou Qin, singing all the songs are familiar or not familiar with, or quietly listening to the enigma psychedelic music. The sound of wood snapping, flames rapidly became of the moment, Ying Liang everyone roasted red burst forth on the cheek. Shen Jie, Guizhou University, was originally a language teacher, an advertising company in Beijing after writing the case, sars was here, only the Zhucao Chuan bar.

November 13 foot lazy ass to the road, destination: Tiger Leaping Gorge.
We chose the line is called: lazy ass line. Lijiang chartered jump start into Tiger, and then return from tiger jumped high road bridge. This way up the mountain less, will not be too hard.
Chartered to a few people in the tiger jumped the drivers do not want to go, because it is one-way, and the tiger jumped over the last after poor road conditions. Therefore, costly vehicles in the morning to find a series of setbacks. Finally on a good a car, the master is not actually the way, we have to pick up another driver pulling the master, and later found that the teacher not only to find their way, as well as fear of heights. 10:30 to Chang teacher's house, Zhang plastered the walls of their teacher's house tourists message (can not stand that some people have their own manager's business card posted on the xx above). Chang teacher's cousin as our guide, took us to see the tiger jumped stone. For a long time do not climb mountains, walk the earth and rock in such a narrow winding path, his legs stiff, would not have to play corner at the foot of straight Chu Liu. On the road there are many "points" --- the money to buy road.
The tiger jumped the momentum is really extraordinary, the Jinsha River from the tiger jumped the wide flat surface of the river becomes narrower as the mountains, roaring thunders forward, the water waves are looks smashing. The Yangtze River rafting has been killed in this team, it was also, unfortunately, fell into the water, there is no up. I honestly feel the rock sitting on tiger jumped the river power. (In the rainy season, the tiger jumped the river rock will be flooded).
Walking in the geological exploration team digging in the cliffs on the way, I really admire them, and this is the thin strip of sky. (In this proves what I have acrophobia). In order today to arrive halfway, we began to return, do not want to go back and chose to climb ladder. Ladder was built in June 2003, high 20 meters, 90 degrees, depending on the precipice of reinforced structures, without any protective measures may be slammed into a cliff to fall. Only with a broad rope, if someone halfway adhere to do not live, or physical weakness can tied to his waist, pulled up. Road is their choice, of course, to start anew. Rest, bite mandibular joint, big bang, all as is the expanded one. Really an infinite beauty in the dangerous mountain peak, climbed the ladder we have reached a flat top of the hill. You can see the endlessly rising peaks of Jade Dragon and Haba Mountains, as well as bending of the Jinsha River jade belt. Guide to take us to cut corners, from the big ditch road being built across the bridge. (No fix is to prohibit pedestrians crossing the bridge, and our guide very face).
Back to Psychology home is at 3 pm, hot and tired and hungry, eating a plate of net dry bowl. Accompanied by "looks very melancholy" (which is the spoken language of her) After just exercise, must be horse has completed the following way. Waiting for race horses fed, 16:30 We continue to advance to the halfway. We have also cut corners to save time, all uphill. After the morning of torture, my legs are filled with lead, hands and feet, had to walk 5 minutes rest 3 minutes. The only thing is to keep breath the atmosphere. We can see that I am so embarrassed, "looks very melancholy" Even horses have give me. Refused to take a steep mountain road, climb on horseback, he was left shaking its right to go upward Akira. After a 15-minute walk most difficult lots, I still insist on using their own feet to go, after all, is to walk Well. Wizard with the mountains of a bamboo cane to me use one more support point, not to mention really useful. The more into the mountains, scenery Yuepiao Liang, Yulong Snow Mountain will be mapping the sunset red. Fei Liu and down through the Goddess of Mercy Temple Falls, 7 o'clock in the evening arrived at the evening's Inn: HalfWay. Feng boss a warm greeting us tea, Chi Guazai. Standing half
way a large balcony, the lights are off, looking dark blue night sky, the stars blinking, and the stars who've never felt so close.
Feng boss gave each of us has his own one covered carved horseshoe-type seal of Tiger Leaping Gorge on foot map. And invited us to Kaohuo, and we just have to hear Feng boss bragging. With corn on the cob lit a brazier, everyone sitting around the circle. Very surprised, Feng Duan Laiyi a boss to do his own birthday cake to eat please, the original boss wife's birthday today. We are around the theme of the Lunar夜话von boss began pioneering history: from a Haba snow-capped mountains on the back miners who go abroad to work, back to the mountains, from only 3 beds, now owned by Inn; from the first one staying his house foreign guests, and now available in English and foreign exchange, so Western. Can be said to be a legend. Feng said the owner of a beautiful female boss is not very good mood these days because there are reports that there will be a large-scale mining machine entered the Haba Snow Mountain extract more minerals. This means that large tracts of virgin forest will be destroyed, followed by excessive exploitation, the mountain has been hollowed out.

In order to ensure physical, everyone is stuffed into stomach 2 times breakfast. Halfway is very characteristic of the menu, (from the tourists who stole one of which can be seen). One is written in the cloth, and another using a thin bamboo sticks, like the ancient book.
8:30 left Halfway, distant mountains bend in the roof Piaoqi curl of smoke. More moderate trend in today's road, it feels easier than yesterday, a number of. As passed a mountain to see the different vegetation: shrubs, pine, bamboo ... ... pine in color: the shiny green and gold of pine needles from the yellow form. This season there are surprisingly small wild flowers open with lavender. Guide said, the month of hill and dale 3,4 red azaleas are in full bloom, a beautiful sight.
One after another began moving in the direction from the bridge as we usually walk the people, mostly foreign friends. Everyone through the narrow mountain pass by at the same time with a smile, said: hello. Fellow will encounter each other encouragement. Then continue towards the direction of their own.
We arrived before noon, 28 Shui, which is the tea-horse ancient road in the well-known section of the road. "It looks like a very melancholy," the horse can not move forward Tuozhao her, and guide parting gift of a pocket of our own species of apples and pears. Although these things, most of them to the pigs and horses, but we are still very touched by what he Eurya --- this bag all the way, and did not say specifically brought to us. RBI good pack, we started down the road on the Po, has completed 28 Shui, really glad we chose the lazy ass line --- not climb 28 Shui. Firewood encountered on their way back to a grandmother, 70 years old, carrying a large bundle of firewood, relaxed pace than we are. We said: "The grandmother taking pictures like you?" "To give money to." She answers Poling, we are disappointed, it seems really going out of the mountains, and simplicity farther and farther away from us.
After a large giant cactus, finally embarked on the path leading to the Naxi Ya-ko. The owner of a very warm greeting us tea, Chi Guazi. Naxi Ya-ko great courtyard is very clean, golden yellow corn, covered with an old wall. We use the fastest speed after dinner, and hurried back to Lijiang, Sheung --- fear not keep up with the long-distance car. We still have to order the Yulong Snow Mountain in the background to stay Zhang Ying, after all, because in the Lugu Lake to see the Naxi Ya-ko foot map, we will arrive here today.
Off the road and getting closer, the sound became noisy. Just hit the children after school, every child can take the initiative to greet us loud and was estimated to be taught it, but still very cute. Walking on the road is far from walking in the mountain have fun, everyone remained silent, but hurry. 5:30 finally arrived at the bridge, disgraced at the end of the riding on a bus.
Just met a boy in Shenzhen Zhongdian back excitement gushing told us his journey. Back to Wang Kurau, the boss heard that we went to the Tiger Leaping Gorge, but also that he was then onto the 28 Shui difficult feelings, we smile did not tell him that we the next 28 Shui, rather than on the 28 Shui.

Sleep since the first one Lanjue travel. Today's time to leave Old Town of Lijiang. And the Old Town of Lijiang in regular contact with one word is: a trance. Can be ignored in this time of the existence of a deep experience of leisure.
Unfortunately, we were the ling-lang stretch of shops to attract, too busy to think a daze. Jewelry store owner who spoke the origins of each piece of jewelry (in this accident ran into the lake-stemmed); bell shop with a good tune to play the sweet melody of bells; a lot of shops selling hand-products, not to buy things You can also enjoy some of the craftsmen's skill. Attracted me the most is this: Dongba workshop. It is a wood shop, a small production of wood like this: The first draw on the wood patterns and the Dongba characters, and then carve marks, with a special paint color, and then use hemp wear Oreocharis, simple good-looking again.

Mr. Xuan Ke humor and wisdom, it is impressive indeed. As a 74-year-old with bilingual host a program. Although there is no understand the emotions expressed in these ancient music, and the ancient music of the melody is also not remember.
