Pay attention to the "Lianxin Hall" and appreciate Chinese culture.
This issue of Boundless Walker's Journey to the West is going to say goodbye to you today. Since the first article on June 29 last year, "Worship the Three Sects of the Hanging Temple", a total of 7 travelogues have been released in the past year and a half, showing China's magnificent and beautiful rivers and mountains, long and splendid culture, recording the growth process of children and the family's family affection. Heaven and earth are infinite, and walkers have no boundaries. All of this will be our eternal memorial. And I firmly believe that the pace of progress will not stop, and when the haze of the epidemic dissipates, we will pack up and start again. The scenery is in the distance, we are not seen or scattered.
To read previous articles, please visit the "Walker Without Borders" section in the "Lotus Flowers" menu. Thank you again for being with you along the way. Because it is only a family's journey essay, coupled with limited ability, the article is difficult to be perfect, as you expect. After all, it is not a professional travel road book, and the time is also lagging behind, which cannot provide a better reference for your trip, please understand.

Day 10 August 4, 2014 (Mon) Sunny
Today is the last day of this westward journey, both unwilling and homesick, with mixed feelings, we embarked on the way home.
At 7:00, I had breakfast at the hotel and left for home. Arrived at wuhai service area at 7:45, refueled for the tenth time, and the mileage showed 4975 kilometers. Arriving at the Yulin service area at 13:40 (we had lunch here on the first day, the time passed really fast), and the mileage showed 5532 kilometers. Briefly ate lunch, the eleventh refueling. At 15:53, we arrived at the Toll Station in Mongolia and Hebei, and the mileage showed 5699 kilometers. Arrived at the East Garden Toll Gate at 18:15, the mileage showed 5892 km. God forbid, there is no traffic jam in the Badaling section, today is the birthday of the old mother-in-law (this is the main reason why I insist on returning to Beijing according to the original plan), it seems that I can catch up with shou noodles. At 19:11 arrive at the Qinghe Toll Station, the mileage shows 5962 kilometers. Suddenly I thought of today's "Red Treasure" restriction, no matter what, at this moment, I have already returned to my heart like an arrow! Jianxiang Bridge was truly intercepted and fined 100 yuan. Arriving at her mother-in-law's house at 19:30, the mileage shows 5980 kilometers (counting the 150 kilometers round trip from Yumen Pass to Yadan Devil City, the actual journey is 6130 kilometers). The next afternoon, the fat old Wu family arrived in Beijing safely, and the trip was successfully concluded. Since the last day was all rushing and there was no time to take pictures, let's put two photos of the fat old Wu family in Yinchuan.
Riding a red treasure, going west to make new achievements, all the way over the mountains and mountains, very competitive. As a travel planner, tour leader, driver and cameraman, with the support and cooperation of everyone, I have successfully completed the task.
On the tenth day, I walked 1014 kilometers, which took nearly 12 and a half hours, and finally arrived home. Push open the door, the hot shou noodles just came out of the pot...
remark
Gasoline: subtotal 750 yuan.
Passing: Subtotal 415 yuan.
Others: Limited to a fine of 100 yuan.
Total cost of the tenth day: 1265 yuan (about 15000 yuan for the whole journey)
Conclusion and thanks
In the past Ming Dynasty, everyone inherited the favor and wrote the heirloom work "Journey to the West". Hundreds of years, young and old can be detailed, women and children are known. Now, eight other people also traveled west, traveling to six provinces, lasting ten days, and trekking more than 12,000 miles, comparable to the Long March, just like the journey to the west.
However, the four masters and apprentices rode on horseback and hiked, but I waited for them to travel lightly. Although the Yellow River is blocked, it can cross the bridge; although it worships the Holy Temple of Tar, it does not see the true face of the bodhisattva; when it enters the devil's city, it does not drop a demon and a half-demon; and through the Danxia illusion, it can glimpse the side of the fairy. Compared with the four masters and apprentices, the steps of the four masters and disciples were frightening, and they were moving day by day, and we were already at great leisure on this trip. However, the scenery along the way is really something I have never seen in my life, and while I am amazed, I am deeply rooted in my heart.
Contemptuous people are not talented, Qia is also surnamed Wu, dare to hope that Cheng'en will follow in the footsteps, mention the clumsy pen, the book this trip, is actually caused by emotion, expect to leave some thoughts, to play in the future. Occasional omissions are inevitable, and only the viewer Haihan is expected.
On this trip, the three-passenger car over the mountains and mountains, driving merit is indispensable; the Jin couple, one of them took the scene to commemorate the occasion, and tried his best, one person Zhang Luo before and after, the hardships were abnormal; the fat Wu person, with a sluggish body, also took the scenery and drove in one, it was really a hard work; his wife Fang, the fine psychological account, the baht was not lost; my wife, Zhang Luo's food and accommodation, a lot of hard work; my son and family, although he was still young, but the secretary of the itinerary, the book was known, and fang helped me to become this article. All of this, and so on. There are also close friends and relatives, who pay attention to our trip, pray for peace, take care of the chores at home, work hard, and should be thanked together.
The book is written in about 30,000 words, and has ten poems, with 500 pictures. However, there are countless wonderful pictures, limited in space, and there is no one-by-one list, which is really helpless.
Today, the "Journey to the West" is about to seal the pen, close the eyes and stroke the scroll, one thing and one scene, one person and one thing are still as new as ever, and what they have done and what they have encountered is still lingering. Life is a lifetime, and it has been decades. It is really enough to be able to bring your family, gather friends, walk all the way to the landscape, get a lifetime of fate, through the wind and rain all the way, and express the pride of a lifetime. As the saying goes: life is a long road, and it is done and cherished.
Lotus heart at ease
