记 要么阅读,要么旅行。身体和灵魂必须有一个在路上。路线:HK – KL – LGK – KL – Melaca– KL – GZ 香港 – 吉隆坡 – 兰卡威 – 吉隆坡 – 马六甲 – 吉隆坡 – 香港费用:证(加邮费)=RMB 200机票HK – KL 往返 +KL – LGK往返 = RMB1100住宿5晚 = RMB 500 /人6天5夜当地各种开销 = RMB 1600共计 = 约RMB 3400在2012年6月6日之前,我没有想过自己会一个人旅行,更没有想过会一个人到国外旅行。人生总是充满了意外和惊喜的,是意外还是惊喜,看你怎么看待罢了。总之,我,第一次,一个人,拖着行李去马来西亚流浪。一个人旅行,出国旅行,我的人生一下子少了两件遗憾。其实一个人旅行虽然没有想象中那么文艺,但也的确是件有很意思的事情,因为你不可能知道下一秒你会遇见谁发生什么。未知的东西永远有致命的吸引力,不是么?除了给自己拍照这个行为蛋疼了一点以外,其他的经历都是非常美好。Malaysia, so far,so good~我懂的,需要先放点预告勾引一下你们~我是一个不折不扣的路痴,拿着地图都会迷路的那种,方向永远找反。此前在做攻略的时候发现具体交通方式是大家攻略中最缺少的东西,所以本文我会特别介绍我来往各地的交通途径,造福后人了啊~Why Malaysia ?说来好笑,此前的3个月我几乎已经做好了成型的Vietnam和Thailand旅游攻略计划,但就在一个月前,因为CY童鞋一句“亚航现在促销飞马来很划诶”,于是我二话不说,买之!6.5-6.12 HK-KL往返 + KL-LKG往返含税,四张机票一共RMB1100。好吧,这么便宜不买的是笨蛋。但是问在于因为一张便宜的机票而选择目的地,随机性太强了。兰卡威、双子塔、穆斯林,我这个无知少女在去之前神马都不知道…赶紧做攻略…几经波折的出发。Why alone ?本来是我和CY童鞋两个人很happy的闺蜜旅行,但是,但是,还是那句话,人生总是充满了意外和惊喜。= =出发前2周,我那坑爹的政治期末考出了时间安排,6月12号早上,而我回程的机票偏偏就是6月12号的,尼玛!肿么都赶不及了,如果改也只能改到HK,实在不想在考试前夜再折腾了。于是姐姐我只好重新买了一张11号晚上KL直飞广州的机票! 虽说700多米也不算太贵,但姐姐我是无产阶级啊,我一个帮人干活还倒贴钱的苦逼研究生,实在太烧钱了…奉劝大家以后一定要避免不必要的开支,然后出发前做做好事攒攒人品。然而这不是高潮。出发前一周,CY突然跟我说她的毕业答辩很可能进二辩,那也就是6月8号。尼玛,我一听心都凉了。这样她就去不成了,难不成我要一个人去?我装作很淡定的说,没事的,你好好弄你的答辩,不会进二辩的。就在出发前2天,她跟我说她真的进二辩了,但还不确定二辩时间。然而这还不是高潮。尼玛…我无语了,真是好的不灵坏的灵。我说,你先过来吧(她在北京,我在广州,然后我们再一起去HK),来了再看看有没有解决的方法。CY到了广州,接到同学电话说他们二辩时间推后到了12号以后,我也就是说我们又可以一起出发了~但这也不是高潮。不然的话故事就太平淡无奇太缺乏趣味性了。我们一起屁颠屁颠的到了HK,在星光大道上看完海景准备转战机场。然后,高潮来了!!!就在我们出发之前3小时,她同学又打电话来说她们二辩确定了是8号。尼玛,我都想爆粗了!!!搞了半天玩我们是吧!!!总之,事情就是这样,我只好一个人上飞机,CY只好一个人回北京。你们不知道,我当时万分纠结的坐在HK的偌大机场里百感交集,心想这难道是God给我的sign要终止这次旅行么??但我偏偏是不信命的人,我要去,就算百般阻挠我也还是要去!!!Tips1、防晒。防晒是必须的。不止一个人说我回来不仅没晒黑反而变白了。坑爹啊,我以前是有多黑…总之防晒一定不能偷懒,我脸上用安耐晒,身上用水宝宝,一定要记得补。穿个防晒衣什么的还是有必要的,不然真的会晒到痛。晚上要好好补水,最好再敷一片面膜恢复一下。2、换汇。马来西亚很多地方都有ATM机可以用银联、visa取现,手续费也才RM1~2一笔,很方便。3、坐飞机和巴士的时候一定要带件有厚度的外套,不然很容易感冒。4、去之前最好熟悉一下要去的地方的英文写法和发音,不然问路都不知道怎么问。有个很简便的办法,就是拿本有图的地图指着说我要去这里怎么去。5、证件。建议大家把自己的护照随身带在身上,然后身份证放在朋友身上。这样的话一旦有人弄丢了包也还有东西可以证明自己身份。6、 去海边拍照一定要带擦镜纸,我每次从海边回来镜头就花的不成样子。7、如果是事先在网上订好了酒店,记得把酒店附近方位地图打印出来,这样给Taxi司机看的时候会比较明白,自己也会比较容易找到~正文前言写的有点太激动了…我需要收敛一下。接下来是让大家见证美好世界的时候了~先来说一些这几天下来对马来西亚的印象吧。首先,马来西亚人大多数都很nice,很多人都会说英文或者至少会听。在华人、马来人和印度人和谐共处的国家里,民众多少有与生俱来的包容心。马来人都是穆斯林,女子都要把自己裹得严严实实的,印度人和马来人其实看起来也挺像的,更异域风情一点,华人都会说中文。基本上他们都很纯朴和热心,你问什么都会很乐意的回答,整天都会把Thank you挂在嘴边。我在马来的这几天,基本每天都处于走几步就问问路的状态。在这一点上,马来西亚人民真的非常靠谱,他们给我指的路从来都是对的!木有人会因为不知道而乱忽悠你。然后,马来西亚是左车道,他们开车速度都很快,基本80以上,在非高速上也开得很快。据说马来西亚是世界上车祸发生率最高的国家,还好这点是我在吉隆坡的最后一个晚上才知道的,不然我的行程肯定被毁。= =马来西亚的空调开的太给力,特别是在公共交通工具上。在长途车和飞机上说需要带件毛衣外套都不夸张,我就是太低估这冷气了所以导致我几度差点感冒。马来西亚是美食的天堂,咖喱不是一般的好吃!咖啡和巧克力不是一般的便宜!但是水果的话我觉得除了榴莲没有比国内的便宜。基本上马来的食物都是比较重口味滴,他们吃饭烧肉一定要配上汁浇在饭上,通常还会几种汁啊酱啊的一起吃。对于我这个重口味爱辣的妹纸来说非常吸引~马来西亚的塑料袋质量非常好,不需要加钱买。但是他们的纸巾很劣质,很像草纸诶…马来人的英文真的是很难听得懂,基本上他们一句话要说3遍我才能猜出是在说什么。所以建议是,说重点词就行了,多了大家都无法理解。让我无比无奈和困惑的一点是,在马来西亚几乎所有人都以为我是Japanese,所有人都跟我说Kon'nichiwa。这是为神马为神马?我真的看起来那么日系么…这就算了,HK机场便利店的哥哥也以为我是日本人…= = 这点我一定要好好反思一下。Day 16.6KL-LGK没错,左边那位就是放我飞机的CY童鞋。咳咳,我是不会那么轻易放过你的~HK部分随便放几张片吧在HK机场check in之后,我就一直处于一种灵魂出窍的状态。想随便找个人问“你是不是去马来西亚的捎上我一起吧”的心都有了。(关于HK机场有一点要提醒一下,那里有两栋楼check in,但是出发全都是在1号楼,所以如果你是在2号楼check in的话还得回到1号楼登机)([]

本次全部行程17晚19天,意大利和瑞士2个国家,罗马开始,苏黎世结束,其中意大利部分的行程如下:DAY01 夜宿罗马--DAY02 斗兽场、帕拉迪诺山、古罗马广场、坎皮多里欧广场、威尼斯广场等--DAY03 梵蒂冈博物馆、圣彼得大教堂、圣天使城堡--DAY04 真理之口、纳沃纳广场、花之田野广场、万神殿、许愿池、西班牙广场等--DAY05 佛罗伦萨中央市场、圣母百花大教堂、市政厅广场、老桥、米开朗琪罗广场等--DAY06 五渔村 Cinque Terre一日hiking--DAY07 威尼斯小巷闲逛--DAY08 玻璃岛、彩色岛、圣马可广场、圣马可教堂、傍晚刚朵拉--DAY09 米兰大教堂、艾曼纽埃莱二世大街,出发去瑞士,夜宿Lugano到意大利自由行的想法早就有了,07年第一次出国游的首站就是罗马,正所谓初恋的感觉总是美好的,意大利特别是罗马在我心里有一种特殊的意义,无奈当时是跟团游,虽然是个小团,依然无法逃离旅行团走马观花的无奈,蜻蜓点水般在各个著名景点点了一圈之后就回国了,留下了遗憾也埋下了本次旅行的伏笔。由于lz码子功力比较逊,希望各位看官有点耐心,慢慢等lz更新完毕,照片非常多,工程浩大啊,希望各位看帖之余给点鼓励,在此对给评分的各位一并感谢了!有些文字摘自我朋友以前做的攻略,介绍内容不少来自网友的游记,特此注明。各位的评论有的回的比较慢,也请大家谅解! 从当时在许愿池扔下硬币算起已有6年时间,期间各种事情、各种忙碌,今年做旅行计划的时候,意大利终于进入了我们的攻略中,此外还有跟它接壤的美丽花园瑞士,全部行程17晚19天,其中意大利8晚、瑞士9晚,为了叙述方便,意大利、瑞士行程分2帖分别分享。本来的计划是意大利9晚、瑞士5晚,无奈不靠谱的北京意大利使馆今年对申根白本采取1天只给1个面机会的政策,导致北京意基本成为Mission Impossible!好在可以去瑞士使馆,不过要求在瑞士停留时间最长,于是稍微修改了行程和booking之后,顺利拿下了申根,使馆贴心地给了25天的旅行证,因为离出发还有2个月,机票和意铁也都订到了优惠的价格,考虑在瑞士呆的时间较长,买了8天连续通票(这个全年统一价,没啥优惠了)。一切就绪,只待出发!说意大利(连同梵蒂冈)是神的国度是有原因的,罗马及周边不小的区域在中世纪的相当长一段时间内作为教皇国存在,教皇不但是天主教的领袖,同时也是是作为世俗政权的“国王”,一直到1861年,教皇国的绝大部分领土被并入撒丁王国,即后来的意大利王国。1870年罗马城也被并入意大利,教皇国领土退缩至梵蒂冈。教皇庇护十一世时期,墨索里尼在1929年与教廷枢机主教加斯佩里订拉特兰条约,罗马教廷正式承认教皇国灭亡。所以今天走在罗马街头依然能感受到浓浓的宗教气息,宗教相关的志也是很常见的。 DAY01-法兰克福转机、夜宿罗马一早起来就赶奔首都机场T3航站楼,怕误机提前了3个小时到了机场,2件托运行李将将卡在限重的上限,随后一路顺利的办完通关手续,在国际候机区的必胜客慢悠悠地吃了个早餐,然后来到登机口,发现航班是A380,算是个小惊喜吧,当时在携程抢的特价票,不知道是什么机种,长途飞行还是大飞机比较舒服一点,起码没那么颠簸。这架就是我们要乘的航班。我们是在法兰克福转机到罗马,飞法兰克福将近10个小时,比直飞的13个小时左右还是稍微轻松一些,机上的娱乐设施还是不错的,电影都比较新,足够旅程上看了,整个航程基本就是不断看电影,上饮料、上吃的、上厕所、接着看电影,困了眯一会儿……如此循环,主要看了遗忘战境、After Earth、怪兽大学,然后也就到法兰克福了。 落地后,转机时间只有不到2个小时,还要过一遍安检、入申根的检查,还是挺紧凑的,法兰克福机场设施感觉很一般,有的地方还有异味,路指示也马马虎虎吧,总之在忙忙碌碌的走了很长的距离后,终于办完了所有手续,赶到去罗马的登机口,候机的人群中明显可以看到宗教界人士,一群嬷嬷更是显眼了。飞罗马这班汉莎的广播里有日语,看来意大利是日本人传统的旅游热门地,而且我和老婆也被空乘认成日本人,跟我们用日语打招呼,懒得解释就笑了笑。我们边上坐了一个欧洲大叔,不停地拿着手上的小单反拍这拍那,老哥似乎是个记录控。我掏出攻略先准备一下降落后要办的事情,正在看买机场大巴票时,边上老哥开始跟我聊起来,从大巴票开始,老哥就开始话唠了,用北欧口音的英语聊起他要去的西西里,以及他以前在意大利玩儿过的地方,又聊起他的前女友等等等等,基本上聊着聊着,2小时的飞行就结束了……这老哥叫Gimo(音),是芬兰人,估摸着小50了,依然有文艺青年的情怀,反正我觉得他的心态还是个20岁的人,他一个前女友是意大利人,所以老哥会说一些意大利语,后来老哥在航站楼里问路时候秀了一把他的芬兰式意大利语,貌似还说的不错,本地人都听得懂。落地罗马以后Gimo还是跟我们一路,他也要坐大巴去Termini中央车站,老哥干脆当起了向导,其实我们自己走没问,不过既然他这么热情我们也不好推辞,一边聊一边走。这里也提一下罗马的菲乌米奇诺国际机场,07年来的时候只是觉得设施一般,这次等行李简直可以用痛苦来形容,提取区面积小,设施旧,人多还挺热,很多航班的行李混在一起,转盘上的都是很早之前的行李,转来转去也没人拿,转盘周围挤满了人,个个望眼欲穿。好不容易站到转盘边上,不一会感觉身体被人挤,回头居然是跟我一个航班中的嬷嬷中的一个,基本是最胖的一个,一劲儿挤,为了避免这么不雅的场面,我主动退却了,跑到边上。当我大汗淋漓地挤在行李转盘时,老婆跑去拍一个穿着婚纱到达的的意大利姑娘了,人家还挺配合,主动摆了个Pose。 等了n久终于提到了行李箱,跟着Gimo找到卖机场大巴票的柜台,5欧一张的票还算合理,候车区从大厅走出来路边就是了,这里的环境还真是像国内了,地上烟头不少,还有点脏脏的痕迹。终于呼吸到新鲜空气(不准确,有不少大巴尾气)的Gimo忍不住掏出了烟。 这个角落这是跟国内有一比啊,好在没发现痰,似乎不随地吐痰是老外的底线了。一张合影,不过用超广角镜头把老婆拍胖了…… 从菲乌米契诺机场到中央车站Termini花了将近1个小时,到达Termini时天已经完全黑了,在此跟Gimo要分手了,他和我们定的酒店方向相反,说了一堆感谢的话后,握手分别。因为离定的酒店不是很远,我们决定直接走过去,路过地上坐着黑人的后街时心里还真的有一丝紧张,Termini后面这条街路面不是很平坦,旅行箱的轮子在上面发出挺大的噪音,有时还有上下坡,貌似不远的距离走的我们很疲惫,看看手表已经是当地时间晚上9点40多了(该死的航班延误和超慢的行李提取!),本来计划晚上在酒店附近转转的计划是彻底没戏了,能在10点前感到酒店就阿弥陀佛了。由于订的是B&B,没有24小时的Reception,出发前通过邮件告知了航班号,手机号等信息,但是眼看快10点了,有点担心有没有人等我们,此时lz的手机不知道为什么无法拨通,想给家人报个平安都没成,第二天才好,现在也不知道为什么。离10点还差几分钟时,我们终于看到了酒店的大门,人还没到门口,大门先开了,里面探出一个大胡子光头,我们对视了1秒,老哥先开口了:“Mr. T*** from China?”“Yes。”我这话一出口,老哥深深地输了一口气,一脸如释重负状地招手:“Come in,please。”呵呵,这哥们表情、肢体语言丰富,而且为人极度热情,让客人心生暖意,何况我和老婆还是刚刚经历了将近1天的旅途呢。简单聊了聊,听了这个光头大胡子的Max介绍基本设施和早餐之后,终于可以休息了!这张是临走时拍的,Max绝对是我们此行中遇到的最热情洋溢的店主,大叔灿烂的笑脸让人难以忘怀。 DAY02 古迹大暴走:斗兽场-帕拉迪诺山-古罗马广场-坎皮多里欧广场-图拉真广场-威利斯广场-斗兽场夜景经过一晚的休整,精神终于缓过来了,6点钟开始洗漱,7点20便出发吃早餐。这家B&B的早餐是在街角的一家小Bar供应的,名叫Bar Trani,除了我们俩都是当地人,意大利人的早点很简单,就是站着来杯Espresso,最多再加个点心,比如我们点的蝴蝶酥或者牛角包之类的,老婆要的是橙汁,因为颜色是偏红色的,开始还有疑问,服务生见我一脸问号又确认了是橙汁。说到这里不得不提门口的一只狗狗,我们在罗马住了4晚,吃了4次早餐,只有最后一天没有碰到这只狗狗,意大利的街边不少地方都有栓狗的地方,狗狗也都很懂事地呆在原地等主人。吃着早餐看着狗,应该是对望吧,也许这里平时游客不多,它有点好奇。 不到8点到达了地铁A线的Emmanuelle二世站,入口很好找,自动售票机选择英语之后非常好看懂,投币,选择票数就OK了,跟国内的自动售票机没啥区别,票价单程的就很合算(除了比全球无敌低的北京地铁票价比高以外)票90分钟内有效,出站就失效了。由于当天是周日,地铁里人很少,轻松愉快地到了Closseo站,出了站迎面就是斗兽场了。说到此处又想到07年万恶的跟团游啊,当时跟着导游也是从这里出站,只给了20分钟照相时间,进斗兽场里面是想也别想,外面照相都紧赶慢赶,顶着头顶的乌云匆匆捏了2张准到此一游照,满是遗憾地走了,电脑里现在还存着那时满脸愁容的旧照,那时就想我迟早还会来一趟,如今实现了。下图是意大利特色涂鸦地铁…… Closseo B口出来就有饮水口,可以直接饮用。罗马及意大利很多地方都提供这样的设施,有的出水口还挺有特点。 Closseo斗兽场是830开放,8点刚过就有几十米的队排在门口了,人虽然不少但很有秩序,连大声说话的都没有,基本上从上了飞机开始生活就进入了低音量模式,后面到了瑞士就更加地明显。买斗兽场(Closseo)+帕拉迪诺山(Palatino)+古罗马广场(Foro Romano)的联票才12欧元,3个景点足足够逛一天的,合不到100人民币,相比之下,国内某些人满为患景点打票价就过于坑爹了!刚开始旅程心情激动,相机头几张都放在M档没调回来,后来发现统统过曝,后期修修算是挽救一下吧。加一张晚上同地点的对比,因为懒得抗三脚架,所以在地铁出口处一个类似配电箱的地方摆拍的,这招以后用到了了不少地方的夜景拍摄,统统没用三脚架,至于构图不理想的,都是回来以后后期剪裁的。拿着票开始游览,票要保存好,后面到帕拉迪诺山和古罗马广场还都要用到。上到二层,里面有个君士坦丁大帝的主展,随便转了转,拍了几张就冲到看台去了。 这个是古罗马时代的马赛克画 斗兽场屹立了2000年,不得不佩服古罗马工程师的伟大,混凝土就是罗马人发明的。讽刺的是对斗兽场破坏最大的不是所谓的野蛮人,而是罗马人自己。据说在中世纪时,斗兽场的石料不断被拆走当做其他建筑的建材。 斗兽场看着很雄伟,不过转来转去基本都差不多,随着时间的推移,进来的游客也是越来越多,想找个人少的地方拍照也越发困难起来。作为世界最著名的旅游圣地之一,罗马常年都是游客如织,旅游旺季就更是如此,好在我们是来自世界人口密度最高的国度,挤过北京上海的地铁,经历过各种人潮人海的洗礼,所以非常适应,何况人家这里秩序还是不错的,基本没见过插队,抢行等行为。 基本上罗马的古迹都会跟天主教发生联系,万神殿就是因为改成教堂早而保留的最好,斗兽场里也有宗教的印记,比如这个大大的十字架和外立面上的识。到过罗马的同志们都知道,真是白天看庙晚上睡觉,在街上逛着逛着就一个教堂,最常见的物件就是十字架、圣母像、天使、教皇的识这类的。不能免俗,照几张留念照吧:) 整个斗兽场有不少零星的残件,动辄1、2千年的年头,历史沧桑感迎面扑来有没有,同是文明古国,我国的很多东西都只存在于史书或者传说中了,“土木”建筑嘛,保存期有限那,没法和爱用石头的古罗马比…… 气势恢宏,尽管已是残骸。 外面逛烦了,又回到建筑里,看展览的游客明显多了起来,主要是模型和一些小的实物,有时间的可以仔细看看,英文介绍还是很详细的。这个模型做的还是不错的,罗马保留的凯旋门还是不少,联票的经典就能看3座,唯一遗憾的是君士坦丁凯旋门在维修+_+,随着旅程的前进,发现很多经典在维修=_=,脚手架成了我们照片中的常客…… 全盛时期的罗马帝国疆域。 出来没多久就被烈日晒脱水了,当天气温高达35度,猛烈的阳光不经遮挡直射下来。撑不住了,只好在黑心的景区摊买了冰饮料,这瓶价格高达4欧的佳得乐真是金贵了,其实同样的东西在罗马超市里才1欧。 晃了2个多小时,和老婆商量后决定去下一站,古罗马权贵的别墅区帕拉迪诺山。维修中的君士坦丁凯旋门…… 回头再看一眼雄伟的建筑 在路上常常能看到骑行的队伍,今天就看到2次,在这样的蓝天和空气质量下尽情运动,对国人来说真是奢侈品…… 沿着君士坦丁凯旋门那条大路,跟着人流很快就到了帕拉迪诺山的入口,这3个景点联票设置的很科学,一个接一个,出口接入口(帕拉迪诺山入口稍微远一点),以前看到有驴友没找到帕拉迪诺山的入口,可能是没好好看地图吧。 进了入口,老婆和我已经累的坐下了,当天35度左右的温度,罗马无污染的空气使阳光显得格外猛烈,没抹防晒的lz夫妇被晒的皮肤发红,感觉这种日照已经赶上马尔代夫的阳光了。 拱形建筑的遗迹 随处可见的意大利特色松树。([]

There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分,不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦,希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子,原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co, where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30), 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]

到二郎山,跳下车,才发现车里车外是两个世界。成都带来的燠热已经烟消云散,取而代之的是无比的凉爽。二郎山是四川盆地和川西高原的分界点,一翻过山,温度就骤然下降好几度,跟成都的湿热比起来,俨然两重天。 越往康定开,太阳越是照得人睁不开眼,我把魔术围巾拉到鼻子上扮蒙面鬼。车停下来加水,我问洗车的妇女,康定还有多远?她愣愣地看着怪异的我,半天才说:前面就是了,还有18公里。去年其实走过一次康定,但没有停留很久,只是匆匆而过。记得它有狭长的街道,奔腾的折多河,和依山而建的民居。刚出车站,就被一群小面包司机包围了,七嘴八舌地问我们,去不去塔公、丹巴、八美……等地方。船同志想去塔公,她不知道从哪听说塔公很美,中了邪一样非要去。于是打听了下,乖乖,两个人包车得450元,拼车也得80一个人。而且路上得花4个多小时,现在已经是下午4点,等到那里,天也快黑了。而且考虑到川北的班车,都是大清早就发车的,即使是明天早上,还是没时间玩。并且塔公只是个小镇,有没有班车往甘孜,还很难说。加上车站的工作人员对说,我们两个女的,没事最好不要坐藏民的车……前前后后一耽误,时间也晚了,于是买了明天直接到甘孜的车票,在车站附近找个小店住下,20/人,公用洗澡间,还凑合。之后的一路,住的大都是这样的旅店。至于玩,康定无非有个跑马山,被圈了地,门票60。附近还有个木格措,门票160……我一听就连忙摇手:不去不去。安顿好住宿,我先洗了一个澡,然后出去逛街找食,顺便把湿的头发晾干。 远处的跑马山。没上去。门票太贵了。折多河。和绝大部分西北的县城一样,康定也坐落在一个河谷中,湍急的折多河把城市一分为二,奔涌而过。街上行人稀少,藏汉相杂。有人沿河摆了小摊,卖各种菌子,大的小的花的,还有松茸。也有水果,桃子一元,苹果两元,比起上海来,便宜得让人觉得惊喜。便拎了一袋在手里。 仔细看折多河,水是浑黄的,可是在靠边的地方,又似乎是绿的,不由得奇怪起来。继续往上走,果然发现那是两条河汇合而成的,其中有一条,是清澈碧绿的水。问了路边溜狗的大爷,说,那条清的河,叫雅拉河。我连忙问:再往上走,是不是有一座雅拉神山?大爷说:对对,河水就是从山里淌下来的。 找了半天,找到一家小馆子,菜居然出乎意料的便宜,回锅肉12元,素菜6元,两人花20元解决了晚饭,拎着明天在路上吃的水果糕点,幸福地摸着肚子往回踱。路边卖菌子的山民。一条河的两种颜色。21号,康定-甘孜一早被闹钟叫醒,船去洗澡。等了半天,她气急败坏地推门进来,告诉我,浴室有扇窗子对着住客的房间,而锁和窗帘,居然是装在房间里面的!她洗着洗着,看到个影子拉开窗帘,站在后面偷看!我顿时昏倒。我昨天洗的时候,压根没发现这一茬,还笃悠悠地又哼又唱,在浴室消磨了不少时光。我只好祈祷老天,我洗澡的时候,那个房间,还没住人。船又说:他不会带着相机吧?我¥%·#……满天金星。这家的老板,真他妈是头猪。 背着东西下楼去车站,狭小的候车室已经人声鼎沸。一看,康定每天有四班车同时发往甘孜,三辆小巴,一辆大巴。我们不幸坐的,正是其中一辆小巴,并且,是在最后一排,并且,行李仓已经占满了,我们的包得放在过道上。并且,从康定到甘孜,我们一坐,就坐了十四个小时。这哪行啊。我抽身就出去了,东转西转半天,想找张报纸什么的垫在包下面,好歹干净些,但是找了半天,这里的人敢情都不看报的,连个纸屑也没见着,只好在站外的杂货店里,花8元钱买了个编织的蛇皮袋,拿到车上一抖开,正好放下两只包。后来我还很佩服自己的先见之明。要是没有这个蛇皮袋,我们那两只背囊,不知道要脏成什么样了,出出进进的别人的脚,不停地蹭在袋子上,还有坐我们前排的一个中年大爷,以每隔三分钟的频率吐一次痰,我怀疑他吐出的口水,都可以装满一痰盂罐了,保不定也粘点在我们袋子上……额,写到这里,有点恶心。可惜后来,这个袋子让船拉在了车上。这个败家娘们啊。 车到新都桥。窗外金绿色的草原。 最后一排共坐四个人。我好不容易挤进去,靠窗坐下来。小巴的最后一排都比前面的椅子要高,而窗的高度却是一样的,这就注定了坐在最后一排的人,视野有限。座位高了,我的脚就够不到地,只能悬在半空里。最后一排有多颠,坐过的人都知道,而且,这条路,是横贯在川西高原上的,除了不超过五十公里的油路外,几乎全是碎石路和土路……出了城就是折多山。去年经过的时候,从新都桥到折多山一段在修路,整个路面就是一个大酱缸,人车经过,无不被染成灰黄色。今年,据说新都桥那一段已经修好了,换成折多山的那段路被扒了,因为康定在造机场,要把路都换成高等级的。于是去年好好的油路不见了,被挖得东一个坑西一个坑,一路颠上山去。好容易到新都桥,路面终于平坦。车子离开318国道,向塔公方向拐过去。两旁是高大苍翠的林荫道,树木闪过车窗的间歇里,能看到远处的河流、青稞田和一幢幢灰白色的藏民居。这里的房子大都是石头建的,颜色和式样都很朴素,只在窗子周围,饰有红白的镶边。正开着,车子停下来,一问,单边放行。正好松泛一下坐木了的腿脚。路边有草地,权当是郊游吧。停车休息。一个晒太阳的小和尚。等上了车再开,路就变了,尤其是从塔公到八美的那一段,一点都不美,灰大得简直铺天盖地,车窗全部关上了,车里还飞舞着密密的细小的灰,无处不在,一会的工夫,深色的包和裤子上,就落下厚厚一层灰土。而外面的太阳正大,车厢里闷热不堪,简直难以忍受。我全副武装,帽子,魔术围巾齐上阵,把自己包得严严实实,只露出两只眼睛。船没带魔术围巾,而我发神经带了三条,于是分给她一条,同样裹严实。但是晚上到了甘孜,拿纸巾一擦鼻孔,还是漆黑一团。其他乘客就惨了,只能拿手捂着,或者拿衣袖挡着,没多久,就头发眉毛胡子全变成灰色的了。下车吃午饭的时候,车里的藏民全被我们的怪样逗笑了。我伸头问一个男孩:我象不象鬼?他摇头,用生硬的普通话回答我:不象,哪有这么美的鬼。哈哈。过了八美,路终于又好了一点,虽然还是颠,但是灰没那么大了,窗子也可以偶尔开一点透透气了。 我们的车。 接近道孚的时候,两边的民居变得异常美丽起来。这里的房子,都用黄和白色做主体,饰以朱红,明黄,橙红,天蓝等颜色,十分的明丽鲜艳。虽然道孚并没有什么出名的景点,但是我记得中国国家地理杂志上好象提过,这里的民居本身,就非常值得一看。后来我们不止一次地后悔,应该在道孚住一个晚上的。康定到道孚大约开八个小时,下午两点多就能到,正好四处逛逛,拍拍建筑,没准还能找个藏胞家访一下。这样的话,能在车上少颠六个多小时,人就不至于过度疲倦,那么第二天,我也许就不会因为高反跌破了下巴。 道孚一带的山比较平缓,山和山之间的平地也多,适合农作物生长,因此这里的经济也相对富裕,所以,房子修得特别讲究漂亮。一栋栋明媚艳丽的房子,夹杂在绿树青山间,显得格外悦目,是安详的高原田园风光。 从道孚到炉霍这一带,景色都很优美,靠近炉霍,民居的颜色又变了,和道孚民居的轻盈明丽不一样,这里的房子以朱红色为主体,饰以红黄绿白等其他颜色,整体看上去,显得华美庄重。 六点多的光线已经开始柔和,投射在路边的林子里,是各种深浅不一的美妙的绿色。我甚至看到一只小猴子轻捷地漫步在草地上,阳光在它身上清晰地折射出毛茸茸的金黄的剪影。 道孚民居……真正的房子,比我拍下的要美上十倍。可惜那段路,我不停地在打瞌睡,眼睛怎么都睁不开,白白错过了很多拍摄的机会~~炉霍汽车站。上下客,休息十分钟。炉霍街头。车上抓拍,歪歪倒倒,请忽视楼猪三脚猫的技术~~炉霍民居的颜色,和道孚又不一样了,以深红色为主,庄重华美。接近甘孜的时候,司机大约也心急了,车子开得飞快,本来路况尚好,但因为速度一快,后排就越发地颠起来,经常能把人从座位上抛起老高,再硬生生地砸下来,颠得屁股、大腿、甚至是浑身的骨头都痛。为了防止这打夯一样的硬砸,我不得不一手抓住前面的椅背,一手抓住座椅面;一只脚插在前面座位和车壁的空隙里,一只脚紧紧抵住前排座位,浑身每一个细胞都提高了警惕,一有被抛起的迹象,立刻放松身体,跟着车子的起伏跳起,再控制着尽量轻一点落到座位上,减少震动。下车后我回想了一下自己当时采取的举动,分明就是武术的基本功,“马步蹲档”嘛。下车后,我的整个背部剧痛,整整痛了两天才好。问一下船,她也同样痛。 翻越罗锅梁子时,山中的卡萨湖。 山脚的小镇。刚到甘孜,老天就给了我们一个下马威。太阳的余光还在山顶上挂着,豆大的雨点就毫不留情地砸下来,生冷的风直往衣领里灌,气温在不到五分钟的时间里,下降了好几度。好在我们决定明天在甘孜休整一天,不用急着赶路,于是就近,在亚青旅馆住下来,三人间,10元/人,不能洗澡,但是胜在便宜,离车站又近,何况斜对面就有澡堂,走过去也不过五分钟而已。简陋的旅馆里居然住满了人,大部分是喇嘛和觉母,也有汉族的和尚尼姑,还有很多的信徒。我们同房间的一个女人,也是从石家庄特地过来朝佛的,据她说,附近的亚青寺和色达,最近几天都有大法会,难怪有这么多的人了。 同屋大姐推荐我们到楼下的小饭店吃饭,说他们那里便宜,味道也不错。于是去了。一看,只有一间屋的门面,摆着三张油腻腻的桌子,电灯的瓦数明显不够,看上去黑咕隆咚的,生意倒不错,坐满了人。 点了两个菜,等了半天。味道差强人意。第二天换了一家店堂看上去干净些的,结果吃下来,比在他家贵起50%。后来就不挑剔了,还是老老实实回到他家吃。一边吃饭,一边不停地有人进来乞讨。手里捏着把一元的零钱。给了一个,跟着又来下一个。打发了几个,我们也学聪明了,照这样给下去,还不破产啊?于是再来讨,一概摇头:没有。他们倒也不强求,你说没有,就走人。 夕阳西下……22号,甘孜早上睡到自然醒,爬起来,但觉得象被人毒打过一顿般,动一动就混身痛。看来昨天那十四个小时的颠簸煎熬,确实伤了老本了。 出去找吃的,然后去澡堂洗澡。5元/人,船嫌太贵,一定要洗够本才行。于是把换下的脏衣服,也就着热水洗干净了。施施然回旅馆,晾衣服,吃午饭,买明天到石渠的车票,睡午觉,直到下午三点,才出门去甘孜寺。 功略上说,甘孜寺是不用门票的,但的士把我们送到大门口以后,却有一个喇嘛背着布包走过来,要我们买票,一看,票价10元,上面也没有核价的章。好在不贵,就掏了。甘孜寺是整个县城的制高点,站在寺门口的平台上,能鸟瞰整个城区。远处层层叠叠的山峦,青翠的青稞田,土黄色的民居,军营,和军营里停放整齐的军车,把长焦拉近,还能看到他们在打球。 甘孜街头。那一天,好象正是日全食,大雨滂沱,街上漆黑一片,路灯都亮了。不过到了中午,就云开日出,阳光灿烂了。吃过午饭,打了一辆的,去甘孜寺。([]
♥写在前面的话♥爱是一场风花雪月的追逐爱是直到天荒地老的奔跑世界太大我们很小唯愿至此启程,心手相连,踏遍天崖,走到海角……回来后,始终有一段话萦绕在我脑海中,难以飘散——沉醉巴厘岛,情迷印度洋。一花一世界,步步是天堂。大家好,自由行菜鸟先向各位前辈、各位看官鞠一躬!这是我和老公第一次手牵手走出国门!我之前只有一次自由行韩国首尔的经历,而老公简直就是这方面的小白。出行前我做了很多功课,终于给自己制造了一次完美的蜜月,完美的旅程。这篇文章,重游记、轻攻略,但若仔细阅读,一定能发现我带给大家小建议及各种tips。这篇文章,重图片、轻文字,请各位把它看做是一个感性的女子,对于一次旅游感性但真实的记录。作为一个入门级摄影爱好者,这次旅行照了好几百张图片,希望邀大家共赏!欢迎各位指导、观摩、提问……谢谢!===大片预告===蓝梦岛coconuts酒店的无边泳池巴厘岛醉美夕阳一花一世界步步是天堂 印度洋的壮阔海景难忘碧海蓝天好吧,新人携夫婿露脸,欢迎各种拍砖。(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……===大片预告部分结束,正文即将开始=== 出行前我们还真的是准备了大半年的时间啊!从完全不懂这世上还有廉价航空开始……囧~~~到慌里慌张的亚航抢票(由于慌里慌张,搞到最后还要改出行时间,于是承担了亚航高额的改费,悲勒个催!!!)踏遍了各大旅游论坛,吸取了N多前辈的成功经验和精华!甚至很多行程都是直接照搬前辈的。所以我们自认为我们的行程还是非常合理的。巴厘岛必去的区域这次我们都走到了。10天行程虽编排得满满当当,但一点都不累,松紧适度。前4天主要是跑景点,后6天悠闲轻松泡villa~~~乌布、lovina、kuta、uluwatu、蓝梦岛、nusadua~~~我们的行迹遍布了巴厘岛6大区,真是一次充实的旅行!利用网上的一张巴厘岛主要景点地图,画出了我们的路线!按照不同的彩色笔墨,再配合地图下面的文字,我们的每日行程就清晰可见啦~~~! 一说到巴厘岛,大家都会想到这是一个浪漫的地方。适合恋人牵手旅行,适合新婚夫妇共享蜜月……网上总是流传这一个说法——巴厘岛是一流的酒店、二流的海滩、三流的景点。1、对于海滩,我觉得巴厘岛确实不算很灵(蓝梦岛的dream beach除外,嘿嘿)2、至于景点,在我个人的理解下是有争议的,巴厘岛有很多人文的、历史的东西,需要沉下心来慢慢品味,虽然相比我国的历史景观相对渺小,但却有着独特的浓郁的巴厘味道!3、说到酒店!巴厘岛就确实很赞啦!我们全程住了6个酒店,有300多元一晚的经济型酒店,也有好几千两晚的私人villa,都相当的舒服!而且若不是蜜月,真的很推荐大家在巴厘岛多发掘几百块一晚的酒店呢,性价比超级高,而且一点不逊于那些奢华酒店!那么就从订酒店开始吧。我们全程一共选择的6个酒店,有冷门的,也有极其热门的。事后发现,其实真的冷门的更好。嘻嘻。因为事前没在别人的攻略或游记中看过图片,到了实地以后会有更多惊喜!首先说一下入住酒店的总体情况:9月4日-6日,乌布pertiwi 酒店deLUXE room 2晚9月6日,lovina nuguraha酒店1晚9月7日,kuta oASIs酒店1晚9月8日-10日,kuta villa de daun 叶子别墅2晚 (蜜月套餐) 9月10日,蓝梦岛coconuts酒店1晚9月11日-13日,nusadua kayumanis 肉桂别墅2晚 (蜜月套餐)出行前比较了最著名的两个订房网站booking和agoda!也学习到了一些。booking是预定后不需要付款,到了酒店后再用当地货币现场支付。agoda是预定后即扣款,现在不是只有信用卡的结算方式了,用支付宝结算更划算。两个网站的特价房都是预定后不能取消。价格嘛,反正我查过的房价加上税和服务费后都是booking稍便宜,但我不敢说一定!但是对于我们来说有一个问。因为是蜜月,所以在叶子别墅和肉桂别墅的那两晚,我们都想预订蜜月套餐(就是包含烛光晚餐啊、spa啊、铺满花瓣的私人泳池啊这一类“肉麻”的蜜月项目,我研究了半天,发现两个订房网站都不包含这些项目)所以我们最终还是选择了旅游代理为我们订房,房价会比订房网站更便宜,还能拿到很多benefit !我选择的中文代理是vivian。vivian家都可以通过QQ在线即时联系,也可以电话中文联系,非常方便。有需要代理联系方式的童鞋,可以跟帖回复索要哈~~~ 关于证我们此行是从成都出发,经吉隆坡转机抵达巴厘岛。亚航。成都-吉隆坡。因为要到马来西亚转机,所以涉及到马来西亚证,出行前做了大量攻略+自己亲身体验=120小时的免费过境意思就是:只要你从马来入境算起,120小时内会离开马来境内前往第三国,就只需到了机场后免费的过境即可吉隆坡-巴厘岛。巴厘岛是落地。所以只需准备:1、有效期在6个月内的护照2、回程机票3、在巴厘岛登帕萨机场购买25美金的落地费,获得单据即可这个部分,在接下来的游记中,会有详细图解!!!旅行装备1、出境游保险 国外和我国不一样,对本国居民几乎是医疗免费、义务医疗,但若游客在那里有个小病小灾的,或许都要支付高额医疗费。 所以出境游保险最好还是备一份。 具体的保险种类,这个确实太多了,未避免广告嫌疑,大家选择适合自己的就好。2、转换插头+接线板 按照别人的攻略,出行前我们就准备好转换插头+接线板。就单看我们的行程,涉及到的两个国家马来西亚和印尼就使用不同的插座插头,所以转换头必不可少,现在电子设备又多,再带个适合自己的接线板,就不怕充电烦恼啦。3、防晒霜+晒后修复 左边第一瓶粉色的是网络大热——水宝宝!我买的是无油无泪配方,我觉得真的不油呢!(我可是大油田哦!)朋友6月去柬埔寨用的水宝宝一小管的那种,她说那种很油!大家各自斟酌吧。 中间绿色的是香蕉船晒后修复,是芦荟精华来的。真心好用!在巴厘岛期间我和LG争相涂抹~~~被强烈阳光晒后皮肤先会起小颗粒,然后痒痒的,这时就赶紧抹这个,不要让皮肤发展到变红甚至脱皮的状态。总之这次出行,我们只是晒黑,真的完全没有晒伤! 最后金黄色那个就是大名鼎鼎的安耐晒金瓶!小贵!但是上脸的东西总想用精细一点!日系产品真的是无油,涂上去很清爽,我大油田肌,涂了这个还能再抹BB霜呢! 4、防晒衫 以前真心不了解这个用途,只觉得淘宝上一抓一大把,20-30块钱一件。直到出发前我一个闺蜜告诉我一定要买它,闺蜜刚从韩国留学回来,在韩国期间经常去海边浴场,她说人家都穿这个直接下海,她也穿,皮肤一样会被晒黑,但是不会晒伤! 一听到不会晒伤!我肯定就买了!于是为了拍照需要,我一次买了4件:玫红、荧光黄、橘色、白色。 这衣服的确强大!浮潜时直接穿着它下海,没有晒伤,和我们一起去的老外都晒得通红!上岸后一接触阳光没一会儿就干了!大爱!后来几天,我老公连T恤都不穿了,直接沙滩短裤配防晒衣,又潮又舒适又防晒! 5、水下相机 最后一件就是水下相机啦。我是在TB上租了一台。第一次使用,第一次浮潜,体会到了海底世界的美妙哦!嘻嘻! 带着水下相机出行海岛真的是乐趣多多。 泳池里可以照,浮潜时可以照。懒得拿单反时还能救个急!超多照片接下里的游记中一一奉上! 9月3日晚2130左右,我和LG抵达双流国际机场1号航站楼(现在1号只有川航和国际航线了),人还是蛮多的。因为出发前一周我才去了首尔,深深认识到成都人民对于出国旅游的热情,所以我们特意提前了很多到机场。 由于一周前才从这里出境,所以比较轻车熟路,拿着网上打印好的亚航登机牌,去柜台托运了行李后带着LG第一个冲到出关的地方。 由于我护照上有韩国证,所所以成都边检那个GG看了啥都没说就放行了,LG是白本出境,照例被拦下来多问了几个问。 我们的经验是:成都护照白本出境前往落地国家是完全没有问的哈,只需要提供你前往国家的机票就可以了,边检甚至没要求我们出示返程机票(我们准备了)和酒店订单。童鞋们放心出境吧。 9月3日2350,亚航红飞机准时起飞,9月4日4:30,准时降落吉隆坡LCCT廉价机场,一下飞机,顿时感觉真的是——廉价机场啊!一周前才去过韩国仁川机场,这差别确实太大了,LG说这个机场好像个工厂哦。不过廉价嘛,人家亚航的营销手段是很高明的。 下了飞机后就跟着大部队走,进了机场大厅直接上自动扶梯。上了二楼后,有马来证的朋友直接右转,一长排出境的柜台直接去出境就可以了。办理过境的朋友就看下图哈!!!!上了航站楼二楼后直走看左边,1分钟内就能看到!直接把护照和下一程机票递给过境窗口就是了,然后等着喊名字! 喊到名字的童鞋,拿回护照和机票什么的,转身往后走,后面是一排出口,从最左侧的出口出,把护照再给官员检查一下就可以出去了。(这段话有点儿绕,主要是当时忘了拍照,但仔细读读一定能体会的) 但这里有个问哈。第一次9月4日到达时是凌晨,就没有人要求我们填写马来西亚入境卡,但出境准备前往巴厘岛时,海关貌似问了我们为什么没有入境卡的存根,但当时我还没习惯马来英语确实听不懂,连问了几个“what”,他也无奈就放行了。 第二次9月13日是晚上抵达的,办理过境时就让我们填了入境卡的,然后把存根给了我们,第二天出境回成都时边检就收了我们的存根哈。看到有攻略说是在飞机上就要发放的,如果有朋友去的话,可以在飞机上就问问空姐、空少(有会中文的),该填的东西还是要填好,避免不必要的麻烦哈! 可以确定的是,去和回都没要求我们按指纹。 比较了吉隆坡LCCT机场和巴厘岛登帕萨机场。 LCCT的工作人员明显有素质的多!东南亚人民确实看起来就不那么“面善”有点凶的感觉,但是LCCT的工作人员你真的可以放心大胆地问他问,会热心给你指点的,不会像巴厘岛登帕萨机场,那些工作人员一副没见过钱的样子,总是找中国人索要小费,强烈BS!!! 走出机场后,看见的第一个店家就是网络大热的“OLDTOWN WHITE COFFE”(老街场白咖啡),因为要等几个小时才会继续飞,所以我们也选择在这里落脚,点了一份鹅肉粉,一份咖喱粉,一杯冰咖啡,一杯冰红茶,共计人民币70元的样子吧,在机场这个消费还是可以的,就是味道……我LG说我出了川系菜品其他的都吃不惯,所以走到东南亚我觉得就没有好吃的东西……咖喱味受不了的受不了啊 9月4日9时许,继续登机前往巴厘岛。 这是我们乘坐的红飞机!廉价机场,都是自己走着去登机的,哈哈! 9月4日1210分,飞机提前降落巴厘岛,本来还窃喜提前了,结果在跑道上滑都滑行了20分钟,真是1230准点到达啊!!!超佩服亚航的有木有。 一下飞机我又兴奋了!建在海边的机场耶!好美! 可惜单反没电了,我恨!于是水下相机+手机一阵乱拍!巴厘岛是落地!到了登帕萨机场后要做的第一件事就是跟着大部队去办理落地! 做了一个图,这样子一目了然了! 购买落地最好用美元现金,去中国银行可以换到!为什么说最好不要涉及刷卡、找钱等问呢!因为登帕萨机场的印尼工作人员就跟几辈子没见过钱一样,一看到自由行的中国人出现,就会想到小费!!!关于机场海关索要小费的问! 今年6月我朋友去柬埔寨时也碰到海关索要小费,她直接装听不懂,僵持了一下,放行了。但据说巴厘岛这边已经很嚣张了,直接用中文给你说“人民币”!如果在登帕萨机场被海关索要小费,先装听不懂,实在不行就给他,然后记住他的工牌,出来后和接机的工作人员碰头后,由他们的工作人员带着你去投诉!一定要投诉到底的! 如果大多数人英文都没好到可以直接和他理论的地部,所以先服软再投诉应该是个不错的方法!总之不要因为这些事影响旅行心情吧,毕竟也不是针对你一个中国人,是对大多数中国人都这样!哎,强烈呼唤国富力强啊!!!关于机场照相的问! 额!这个问!在登帕萨机场,能不照相还是别照了吧。如果被登帕萨机场的工作人员发现你照相,而你又确实照到了一些关键的示、建筑或者工作人员,那就会被罚款。走到别人的地界,英文又不是特别好,还真是纠结不清啊,于是所谓“罚款”、“小费”的傻傻分不清,也就只能“乖乖”认栽!曾经看到有人说过,登帕萨机场有专门抓人照相的人,会记录下来,过关时找你麻烦,所以大家,小心谨慎为妙!关于护照上落地盖章的问! 出了机场就看见我们订的接机工作人员,他把我们在巴厘岛10天的所有订单都交给了我们。然后他赶紧让我拿护照本给他看,开始还不懂什么事,原来是登帕萨海关经常故意少给你盖章,等你出境的时候就会出问,然后又是一大堆麻烦事,大家都懂了吧?!真是强烈BS!!护照本和出境卡存根上会分别盖章!大家一定要检查清楚。关于巴厘岛出境的问! 一定要妥善保管自己的出境卡存根,出境时要交给海关的。我们出境时就看见有老外弄掉了存根,然后就开始和海关漫长的纠结…… 还有一定要准备好每人150000印尼盾的现金,是出境费用,一定要是印尼盾现金!不然到时候在机场换汇汇率很糟糕! 出机场后,我们就看到了接机的老陈,和我们的司机gede~~~很幸运的是,未来几天的包车行程中我们都不需要更换司机,会一直由gede为我们服务!!!在几天的游览中,我们也和他建立了不错的感情,大家相处非常愉快! 9月4日下午1630,司机gede大叔带我们来到了乌布。 刚去了首尔自由行回来,初到巴厘岛,我承认我确实被shock到了!街道破旧而狭小,交通一片混乱,满街乱窜的摩托车,这是传说中的天堂吗?! 不过各国国情不同,很快也就适应了! 我们入住的第一个酒店在乌布,名叫pertiwi resort & spa。是一家鲜有人提及的酒店。但是入住后我们感觉真的非常好!就像置身在一个热带雨林花园中,每一步都是景色,光是光酒店都能走上好一阵!一到这里,LG就说,度假的感觉来啦! 由于我们到的晚~~~享受到了第一个福利,upgrade!房型被升级了。后来才发现,房间升级一般都是你订的房型已经被住完了,所以想升级的话,晚到酒店才大有希望哦!而且到了酒店后,不妨向前台多问一句是否可以升级,说不定会有意外惊喜!这就是peitiwi酒店的门牌。 小小的非常低调。 在巴厘,即时是超级奢华的酒店,门牌、大门什么的也都很小巧、低调~~~这是酒店的大厅。 呵呵,真心低调的有木有,但很有巴厘岛的味道!巴厘岛的各种石雕都让人爱到不行 爱死了这样的配色,非常有巴厘岛的感觉! 我们是9月4日-13日待在巴厘岛的,好像刚好遇到了学生开学后的一个小淡季,整个行程中住了6个酒店,都没有什么人,除了热门景点海神庙和百度库遇到了大批游客,其余时间大多都是我们两个自己玩。全程10天也只碰到3对中国夫妇(情侣)。这种自由行的感觉,真的很棒!就拿我们入住的第一个酒店pertiwi来说,入住的那两天,整个酒店就我们两个中国人,连亚洲面孔都没有碰到。酒店本身就像一个花园一样……如果有时间,一定要两个人坐在这里静谧地享受时光老公到了这样的环境中,一下子就放松下来,像个孩子,玩得非常开心!!!当然,在热带雨林中,我也很开心哟学一学这个石雕的动作!!! 下午1600,ratu spa的接送车准时来酒店大堂接我们。 ratu spa在乌布很有名,"ratu"在印尼语中是“女王”的意思,做这样的spa是指女王般的享受吗?ratu spa建在稻田边,房间窗外就能看到稻田,别有一番风味。 PS:ratu spa是出发前就在代理那里定好了,代理已经帮我们预订了接送的时间。所以它会直接在酒店等我们。到了做spa那里,自己只需要选择一下精油就可以了。房间内部结构,古香古色的巴里岛风情。选精油的瓶子很可爱!spa结束后还可以在右上那幅图中的三角浴缸里泡花瓣浴+品尝姜茶! 9月4日晚1900左右,做完ratu spa后,我们在wayan咖啡馆享用了到达巴厘岛的第一顿晚餐。 按照攻略点了一份印尼综合饭,店家推荐了一份沙爹鸡肉串饭,两杯西瓜汁和一份网络大热的死神蛋糕(death cake with chocolate)。合计人民币120元。由于还是处于单反无电状态,所以只有用手机拍拍食物,没办法拍出用餐环境。这个餐厅很有乌布味道,小桥流水、植物茂密,各种凉亭设置在花草树木间,静谧和谐。 巴厘岛的所有果汁都是鲜榨的。你点完后甚至会听到榨果汁的声音,让你感觉特别原汁原味。我们去巴厘的时期已经错过了当地水果最好的时节(5月-8月),所以酷爱水果的我俩没能一饱口福,可选择面非常少,芒果已经下市了,基本只能选择西瓜、橙汁、柠檬汁、百香果、混合果汁……所以在巴厘的10天里,西瓜汁成为我俩的大爱!(无论是餐厅还是小店,果汁都是折合人民币15-20元左右一杯)餐桌上很巴厘岛风味的小摆件~~~印尼综合炒饭旁边的配菜很丰盛 味道也还不错哦沙爹肉串饭~~~ 这种沙爹肉串是我在巴厘岛期间相对来说比较喜欢的食物,有点烧烤味,偏甜 但这份饭性价比不如综合炒饭高呢,综合烧饭的配菜丰富很多([]
壶瓶山,位于湖南省常德市石门县境内,海拔2098.7米,被称为“湖南屋脊”。利用国庆假期,约好刚从深圳回来的好朋友,卜宗年夫妇,一起成行。 说到错误游,到现在还有些许遗憾;本打算去登壶瓶山主峰峰顶的,时间也定在假期的最后6、7日两天,选择这两天,主要是考虑大部分游客都在返程中,加上媒体近几天报道,较多的景区出现游客爆棚的情况,来一个错峰出发,应该是明智之举,后来事实证明是正确的。 10月6日上午按时出发,可是,由于本人轻视了此次出游的准备,(因为是市内游),没有仔细研读攻略,犯了一个常识性的错误,认为壶瓶山应该就在壶瓶山镇,而且石门县汽车站内,有几辆等客待运的大巴车,挡风玻璃上都赫然贴着“石门——壶瓶山”的红色大字路牌,登壶瓶山顶,搭乘到壶瓶山的车应该不会错吧,于是,四人毫不犹豫地登上了即将开往壶瓶山的大巴。 大巴一开出石门县城约2公里,就开始进入爬山路段,经过3小时20分的跌宕起伏、峰回路转,大巴终于在下午2点20分到达壶瓶山镇,四人下车后的第一件事就是找餐馆,其实不是找,是直奔,因为简易车站对面,就有一家“胖子餐馆”。 随乘大巴的女乘务员也介绍说,她们也经常在这家餐馆吃饭,另外还给我们介绍了同车两位美女,她俩?不是,应该是她仨也是来旅游的,(还要算上她们的“崽崽”,一只白色的宠物狗),她们选定的项目是漂流。 我们的团队由四人增加到六人,餐馆内,花很短的时间就点好了饭菜,趁着上菜的空隙,向该店胖子老板打听登山的路,老板一句话,把我们都搞懵了,他说:到壶瓶山登顶的地方还有6、70公里山路要走,一个叫“南坪”的地方,每天一班车,下午1点30分开出,现在没有车进去了。 怎么办?另外租车去吧,找了几台车,价格贵得离谱,而且车况也不好,时间也不够了,我们不想出什么状况,只能放弃登顶壶瓶山。 最后只好改变旅游路线,到17公里外的壶瓶山生态旅游景区看看,于是便诞生了错误的旅游。 六人匆忙吃完饭后付账走人,同车的两位美女她们仨不知什么原因,改变了主意,不与我们同行了,团队依然变成原来的四人。 壶瓶山镇,是一个藏在大山深处的山村小镇,费了好一番功夫,找来一辆经过改装加篷的三轮摩托车,当地人叫“麻麻车”,也是山村常用的载人工具,为什么会叫这么个名呢?我相信朋友们和我一样,对这个名字产生好奇。 经过我们四人团队的亲身搭乘体验,终于悟出其中的真谛:麻,真的麻,不是一般的麻,而是浑身上下都麻,麻到脸皮肌肉失去控制,麻到耳内奇痒忍不住用手指去掏。十几公里山路的颠簸,能不麻嘛?你要坐上去,你也麻。身体保持坐的姿势,充分利用腿部韧带的缓冲功能,任由坐板在屁股下面上下跳动。 沿途景色不错哦,高山峡谷,溪流潺潺,鸟兽争鸣,森林茂密,五颜六色,美不胜收,意外的惊喜啊。 进入景区后,感觉特别清爽,游道是沿着缓缓溪流向上修建的,两边是高山,多处是绝壁,瀑布点缀其中,怪石嶙峋,置身其中好畅快。 虽有小小遗憾,但也不虚此行。 从澧县出发先前已商定好,实行AA制,由我全程买单,卜妻记账,返程后算账。10月6日早上,7点钟起床,洗漱,整理行装。735分,和老婆出门,澧县多安桥乘3路公汽(票价1元/人)到”桃花滩宾馆“站下车。739分,与好友卜宗年夫妇回合,”稻花香“餐厅早餐(餐费共40元)后,四人清点行装。810分,乘2路公汽(东站——西站)到澧县西站(票价1元/人)。820分,乘(澧县——石门)大巴 (票价15元/人)。953分,到达石门县汽车东站。1000,乘石门(东站——西站)公汽(票价1元/人)。1048分,到达石门西站。以上的行程没有拍照片。1100,乘(石门——壶瓶山)大巴(票价30元/人)。开始上照片大巴行驶在盘山公路上车上一个8个月大的小萌妹,老看着我笑,特别可爱。沿途的风光沿途的风光 经过3个多小时的颠簸,下午220分到达壶瓶山镇。其中的来龙去脉前面已经表述,这里不再重复。 下面这辆车,就是我们从壶瓶山镇转乘到壶瓶山生态景区的车辆,当地人叫“麻麻车”,与车主谈好车费50元,我们四人就上了这辆车,250分继续赶路。 平时没有客人的时候,就当小货车用,只要你坐了这车后,你就永远不会忘记它。估计以后训练航天员可能会排上用场,要不要去试试? 目前通往景区的道路只允许这么宽的车辆通行,宽了会车就困难了。 42分钟后到达景区大门入口,门票费80元/人,因预先与麻麻车车主打听过门票的事,车主承诺,不买票可以带我们进去(不明白其中的缘由),还说向前还有7公里路程,前提是要补加30元的车费,划算,成交。 麻麻车果然载着我们顺利通过,约行进10米后,只听见大门处有人冲我们喊:要买票啊,不过是象征性的履行所谓的职责罢了,我们没听见lol。 继续前进,约7分钟就到了一个岔路口,这里住有几户人家,也有几家小店、小旅馆,这里环境不错,山溪环屋流淌,森林茂密,绿草如茵,我们在此下车,看看旅馆; 第一家的房间还好,就是小了点,两人住有点挤,床铺很干净,有电视,没有电脑,价格100元; 第二家的房子较旧,大小较合适,但没有卫生间,没有电脑、电视,80元可以开房,没看上。 还是觉得第一家好一点,又回到第一家,继续与管房的小青年侃价,小青年很有原则,一个子都不少,问他的老板在哪里,回答:老板没时间,在邻居家打牌,算哒,我们撤。 旅馆到景区的徒步起点(象鼻子沟)只有1.5公里了(旅馆内打听到的),看来麻麻车主7公里的说法明显是撒谎了。 麻麻车5分钟就把我们送到了目的地,时间是下午430分,看时间还早,准备进景区溜达一会儿再做打算。(照片为卜妻拍摄)80元的车费付给了麻麻车主,车主一溜烟跑了。 开始徒步进入象鼻沟景区,景区木廊亭口有一个穿红色T恤的中年男子,主动走近我们,说进景区要买门票,80元/人,这时觉得有点被愚弄的沮丧。经过一番侃价,同意我们四人买3张票,3*80=240元,而且没有正规的门票,红T恤男子随手给我们写了一张白纸条,写下了他的电话号码,他姓吴。说今天、明天凭他的白纸条都可以进出,我拍下了这张白纸条,如收宝贝一样的把它装进口袋。进入景区。仙女瀑 由于时间的关系,今天的观光就到此告一段落,因为景区530分关门,我们必须要在这一时间前走出景区。 另外,我们住的旅馆还没有落实,进景区前,门口有一个当地摆摊的中年妇女,对我们很友好,让我们免费尝她的烤红薯、野生板栗、猕猴桃,跟我们拉家常,想要我们住在她的家里,我们四人被她的朴实、诚恳打动了。 从景区出来后,决定到她家里看看,(其实我们在心里都定下来了住她家) 照片中远处的那把太阳伞,就是我们的房东经营地。去农户家的路上,也不时被风景所吸引。 15分钟散步式的行进,到了农户家,房东姓杨,房间很宽敞,采光明亮,客厅、卫生间、电视都有,四人当即同意,入住。房费150元,两房一大厅。 谈好晚饭的费用,房东给我们做饭,一个鱼火锅,两个素菜,80元。这栋两层楼房,就是我们今晚夜宿的地方。 吃晚饭后,天已经完全黑暗,也没有什么地方可去,周围出奇的安静,凭我的职业经验判断,环境噪音绝不会超过15db。上二楼房间闲聊,看电视,房东两夫妻也来加入我们阵营,天南海北,无话不谈。11点钟后,睡觉。明天还有任务呢。 10月7日早上730起床,洗漱完成,趁房东准备早餐的空隙,到屋前屋后看看,今天天气很好,阳光已照在大山顶上屋后的背景旁边还有一栋木装修的小楼,是一家小规模旅店。你知道房东窗户前面摆放的是什么吗?四条腿,纯木制造,猜猜看。屋前有一条干枯的石沟,沟的上游约30米的地方,有水流入,下游20米的地方,有水流出,据房东讲,下雨的时候,水流很大,能平堤,而且还是很清澈的水。([]

我像大多数少年一样,也偷骑过家里的摩托车,后来被母亲发现,因为担心我的安全,才不得已将车子转让。 我一直认为母亲骨子里的闯劲要强于我,我后来的坚持行走和母亲对我精神上的影响密不可分。母亲上了年纪以后,更萌生了一些闯荡的想法,比如徒步西藏。她想了,便开始准备,之后的半个月中,她两次徒步往返30公里以外的外婆家。我看她认准了要做这事,于是积极帮她准备户外旅行用品。她也将我中学骑过的自行车翻出来维修保养,骑行锻炼。 外婆和母亲的妹妹说母亲疯了,反对她的一意孤行。而继父也不愿意和母亲结伴同行,导致家庭气氛一度乌云笼罩。母亲很难过,我更替母亲难过,一个人想实现自己的理想,要遭受如此多的阻力。 母亲很喜欢我的那些摩托车,我骑过的她都很喜欢。她不会上网,就用手机拍下这些车子的照片存着一个人的时候默默地看。她最喜欢我的BMW 650GS Dakar,她总和别人形容,我儿子骑宝马,那个车子如何如何威猛。 我这几年的行走,大多是自私的痛快,钱够生活了,就偷溜出去透气。2012年春,有了我和雨的蜜月骑行之旅,我深刻意识到,旅行是快乐的,而家人应该分享这种快乐。2012年12月21日,传说中的世界末日,不去管它真或者假,我只想带上生命中最重要的两个女人雨和母亲一起旅行,无论生死,在一起就好,在路上就好,圆梦就好。 感谢潘修环先生,让我的梦想有机会成为现实。https//www.whtv.com.cn/whtv_dslm/tv1/b/z/201209/t20120919_321202.shtml关于随菠逐雨的一则采访 从北京八一制片厂录制湖北卫视的综艺节目归来,开始出发前的准备。这个环节就像上班时的例会,要说的、做的还是那几件事,但却又非说非做不可。 我接手的是一台嘉陵的企业展示车。这台车平时是用来做企业文化宣传、展示、路演的,后来要卖,但武汉车友无人问津,所以被搁置在嘉陵仓库里落了厚厚一层灰。车子实际里程数非常少,而且性能调校很不错,只是外观有几处磕碰,局部保养不周有些起锈。 以一台JH600A的价格获得了这台JH600B,我觉得还是值得的。我准备把它稍事打扮,随我、小雨和家母去远行。接手这台车属于权宜之计,因为母亲的首次长途旅行,我不想让她骑行;而一年两次长途骑行,对于雨的身体消耗又实在很大,思索再三,我决定选择JH600B作为此次旅行的座驾,我们一家三口同乘一部车子,有说有笑、其乐融融,想必也是非常美好的。 接手JH600B之前有些担心行李空间不足,等真正见到它时,所有的担心就烟消云散了。JH600B座椅后部的行李空间实在很大,放一个人进去都并非难事。 今天把车辆送去兄弟的专业汽车美容店进行外观保养,并在边斗中铺设汽车使用的地胶,隔音,耐磨。同时网购了GPS电源插口改装件以及3条全新轮胎,等这些配件到后,再做整车的保养(包括机油、机滤、冷却液更换;链条、牙盘维护;更换进口电瓶等)。八一制片厂内,和节目中的4位“妻子”合影。“人生是如此的辉煌,生命是如此的精彩”,和延参法师聊生活、聊机车、聊女人产生要带母亲一起去旅行的想法源自她的一条短信。 2012年8月20日今天感觉好多了!记得平生还是第一次感冒、发烧,病得如此重。连续三天高烧39°,还好昨天早上体温降到37.7°,今天体温终于正常了。我的身体一直都挺好,不太容易感冒更不会发烧,这次的情况可能是因为年纪大了吧。人要是患了病就像垒不起的一滩烂泥,眼睛都不愿睁更别谈想做事了,就连想想都觉得难,咳,什么也干不了。哈!现在好多了真的要好好想想我要做的事:我想把徒步西藏计划提前一步,在明年开春我生日那天出发(4月3日),是否对生命存在的思索有更深层的意义?不知老伴是否也愿意陪伴我一起同行,如果不愿意我也不会怪他,我能想象的到这么久的路程要走到何时,路上有多少艰辛和困难在等着。还有很多想象不到的难,谁也无法预料这么久的路程都会发生些什么,到那时都必须要去面对。所以老伴愿意陪伴是求之不得,皆大欢喜;不愿意也是情理之中,那么就有我自己去挑战,我是不会给自己打退堂鼓的。儿子,替我多多谢谢那些关注和关心我的圈里人,我不会让他们失望更不会让自己失望。还有一段时间我可以做些准备,这是我给予自己的一次最高峰的生命之旅。 母亲这条短信深深感动了我。她病得最重的时候没有告诉我,而自己抗过了痛苦把迎接希望的信心带给了我。她是一个经历过太多磨难但仍然有梦想的人,她在实现梦想的过程中阻力重重,而我要做的就是帮她克服这些困难,勇敢去追求梦想。今年初的东南亚之旅,使用了米雅贡嘎的大型防水袋,感觉防水效果和扩展容量都非常满意。所以在淘宝上又购置了两只,满足我、母亲、小雨的随身物品存放。国内可以买到的女款摩托车车服实在不多,几经周折才找到MOTO-GIRL品牌的女款车服两件。粉色小雨,黑色母亲。同款异色,两人搭配起来应该非常好看。 经过《户外探险》杂志的介绍,今年3月我开始与专业户外品牌kailas进行合作。2012年东南亚蜜月之旅,KAILAS提供给我和小雨宿营装备(帐篷、睡袋)以及户外情侣装、软甲冲锋衣等产品进行试用。KAILAS的VIVI小姐亲自为我和小雨挑选每一件情侣装,用她的话说,她觉得自己在为我们挑选嫁妆。让我非常感动。 这次为母亲圆梦的长途骑行活动,再度受到KAILAS的支持,VIVI小姐为我、小雨、母亲准备了一箱户外装备,今天快递到家中。 我不是高帅富,我是穷屌丝。KAILAS的产品我是消费不起的,但我却有幸能用得上这样专业、时尚的户外产品。感谢KAILAS的慷慨,感谢VIVI的体贴,感谢所有朋友的支持。世界末日,我为大家祈福。 武汉武昌有一条又窄又乱的巷子,里面隐着三位“技术型宅男”。一位是进口车维修技艺高超,拆各色发动机如探囊取物的聂权聂师傅;一位是弯管焊接,制作的护杠媲美进口原装的二伟师傅;还有一位精通KTM,刷电脑搞改装,拥有完美KTM 990SMT的胡炯胡师傅。我车子碰到的大部分问都会找这三位“技术型宅男”解决。 这次也不例外。JH600B就在这条又窄又乱的巷子获得新生。 新款的JH600B应该表头位置已经安装了车载电源插头,我这款还是需要自己动手改装。这次出行使用的GPS仍然是服役了3年的Garmin 400T。 上午电话给嘉陵武汉的负责人,得知发票和合格证刚刚办好,应该下午会发快递给我,这样看来,上牌照至少要推迟到下周一(17日)了。 武汉市区目前摩托车牌照无法办理,只能考虑武汉郊区。近郊纸坊区只接受本区居民办理车辆上户。下午把小雨的身份证变更到武汉郊区,临时身份证也要周二下午(18日)才可以拿到。 嘉陵JH600B的轮胎是建大轮胎专供,三轮可以互换,型号是4.10-18 75P,与普通2轮摩托车的轮胎不通用。淘宝上的价格接近400元一条。米其林、普利司通、倍耐力都没有同型号侉子适用轮胎,说明嘉陵600B与建大轮胎是战略性合作,国产品牌的强强联手。 更换全新的4.10-18 75P绝对是个体力+技术活。“技术宅男“聂权聂师傅歇了三口气,抽了4根烟,花了近2个小时才把3条全新轮胎更换完毕。建大的此款轮胎花纹深、胎质饱满,触感偏硬,是为复杂路况、长距离穿越设计的轮胎。我预估此轮胎正常负荷使用,应该可以连续行驶10000公里以上,等待事实验证了。 母亲原计划17日下午的航班。结果飞机故障,推迟到18日早飞武汉。我电话母亲说,如果真是20、21日的航班,还真不放心让她乘飞机过来。 目前遇到些麻烦。JH600B武汉全市无法上牌,只能去咸宁办理,代办人员说要10天左右。等不及,准备将车运至云南楚雄,结果物流又碰到麻烦,德邦、天地华宇、中铁都不受理。佳吉受理了,但只能运至昆明,且要价过高,仅打箱和运费就近3000元。 考虑从武汉骑车过去。但母亲年前需要回家陪外婆过年,这样国外旅行的时间就被压缩。 要想一个办法才行。 办法总比困难多,对此,我坚信不疑。 当我获知佳吉快运武汉至昆明收费近3000元时,我开始考虑接受最坏的结果:从武汉一路骑至云南。最大的问首先是车辆没有合法手续,任何一次交通检查都有可能终止我们期待已久的旅行。其次这个季节行驶在中国中部地区,赶上恶劣天气,身体承受的痛苦绝对够骂自己一万次SB。还有国内路程过长,我不得不压缩东南亚的行程,这对于将首次跨出国门的母亲来说,绝对是很大的遗憾。 午饭后,天气放晴,我觉得自己需要再出去碰碰运气。从网上获知大型的物流市场都集中在武汉汉阳区,距离我的居所几十公里,于是驾驶JH600B向汉阳走。我是外地人,对武汉不熟,对汉阳更加陌生,一路走一路问,经过了十几个路口,擦身几十位交警。今天的汉阳也不知道发生了什么情况,交警扎堆,每过一个路口就有4,5位警察叔叔。我心提到嗓子眼,但只能故作镇定,以正常偏慢的速度向前行驶。速度不敢提,怕交警认为咱做贼心虚,在下一个路口截堵,JH600B这车想逃还真是难度不小。 人品一路爆发,支持我从居所顺利开至物流中心区。前后走了三个物流中心,最终找到一家做云南专线的三志物流公司。老板是个小伙子,瘦高、很精神,读高中的时候也是个摩托车爱好者。JH600B不打箱直接运输,省去打箱费用。我听他详细描述完车子如何用叉车送到货车上,用什么样的箱子进行隔离、保护工作,才放心不少,交了运输费用,打车回府。 网购了21号去云南的火车票,世界末日,我们就要出发了。 从云南可以陆路入境的国家有三个:越南、老挝、缅甸。 越南允许携带自行车进入,对于摩托车的政策不是非常清楚,有车友成功从老挝进入云南,但大部分被挡在国门之外。老挝允许携带摩托车入境,目前磨憨-磨丁口岸基本是国内车友自驾去东南亚的唯一通道。缅甸的政策比较特殊,瑞丽口岸可以深入到缅甸境内,而其它几个口岸只能在距离边境线几十公里范围内活动。瑞丽口岸不允许携带任何交通工具,只能乘坐旅行社巴士前往曼德勒以南。 老挝和泰国都可以落地,但问是从磨憨出境,如果没有老挝的证,中国方面可能不允许出境。但从泰国清孔返回老挝会晒口岸时,是可以入境老挝再办理证的。我是昨天晚上才大概了解这些信息,所以打消了去磨丁口岸办理老挝落地的念想。网上联系了一家昆明的旅行社,老挝和泰国证大概需要5个工作日。计划抵达昆明后将护照委托旅行社去办理,然后快递至西双版纳。而我们则前往楚雄办理车辆落户,之后去西双版纳等待护照到手。[摘自母亲笔记]2012.12.17 我期待已久的时刻终于来临。 今天我早早起床了,天气真的很冷,但很晴朗。我带着一颗火一样的心愉快地踏上我梦寐以求的旅程。 来到候机大厅准备换登机牌,可怎么也想不到,当我把身份证递给前台服务小姐,得到的不是登机牌而是一盆冷水:这次航班由于飞机故障还没有从武汉机场起飞。 她哪里知道我的心情?你想象得出狼吞虎咽时被突然卡住了喉咙的样子么?我张着大嘴瞪着眼睛望着她,像傻子一样愣在那里。服务小姐也盯着我看,又重复了一遍刚才的话,我才缓过神来。 天哪,这温度降得也太快了,真的一点准备都没有。我从高空一下给摔到谷底,不知所措。[摘自母亲笔记]2012.12.17 我期待已久的时刻终于来临。

DAKAR过唐古拉山口摔车时毁掉,友情支持我这穷屌丝裤子一条、靴子一双以及手套两双。 裤子很给力,穿着合身、款式很好,但靴子尺码偏小一些。看来我是没有这个福气穿了,小雨的鞋柜上又多了一宝。([]
