The title is actually a common saying among donkey friends. When I first started as a donkey friend, I heard it and remembered it. Many years later, to this day, I found that this was indeed the case.
This "third day" should be the content of July 27, but still want to plug the 26th, the previous beekeeper took up too much space, had to move part of the content to the text of the 27th.
#第一夜露营冷吗
A little cold at night. Checked the temperature on the phone, 17 ° C. But I think it should be lower. The weather forecast is from the local Gonghe County, specific to my place, it is estimated to be about 10 ° C.
Yesterday I had a pleasant chat with the Tibetan hostess, not only did I taste her homemade yogurt, she also asked me to pull the long well electric pump power cord into the tent, so the phone was full of cells in the morning. Before going on the road, I first pulled the people's power cord back to the pump, and left a note next to it, to the effect that I thanked the hostess for letting me spend the night here, wishing the whole family happiness and auspiciousness.
Later, I regretted it a little, and it should be said that Tashi Delek, Tibetan.
#总算到了湖边
Watch the mountains run dead horses. Obviously, I saw that there were many figures in front of me at the lake, and when I really got to the water's edge, I estimated that I had walked nearly 1 kilometer.
I dipped my hand in some lake water and put it in my mouth, and it was indeed salty. China's largest saltwater lake.
Qinghai Lake was engaged in "returning grazing to grass" a few years ago, and the vast space between the lake and the highway was fenced with barbed wire, and it was not easy to open an opening for tourists to walk to the water's edge.
#搭车去茶卡盐湖
I was going to take a shuttle bus from Black Horse River Town to Chaka Salt Lake on the 27th, but I met an SUV parked on the side of the road on the road, and a young man wearing sunglasses waved at me and said, "Look at your hard work, carry you for a while." "I heard him say he was going to Chaka Salt Lake, and I thought why don't I just go now!"
After getting into the car, I saw a young lady and a little boy in the car, and a family of three was out on a trip. Then they talked all the way, and when they finally arrived at the destination, not only did they know that they were from Luliang, Shanxi, but even the young man had been a soldier, and his wife was a junior high school classmate, and now he had a job and opened his own barbecue shop, and his wife opened a takeaway shop. The young man was very refreshed, added WeChat to each other, and said: "There is a chance to play in Luliang, I will take you to eat the most authentic Shanxi noodles!" ”
(Shanxi Luliang's family of three, in fact, there is a small second son in the family)
#看到了 "Mirror of the Sky"
It is already more than 6 o'clock in the evening to the Chaka Salt Lake Scenic Area, the northwest plateau is dark late, although the sun is sloping westward, but the "west sun" is strong and hot. There are many cars in the parking lot, and there is still a queue to buy tickets, which can be imagined how hot it will be if it is not an epidemic.
Chaka Salt Lake is considered an industrial tourism, originally a salt-producing state-owned enterprise, in recent years has become a popular attraction. The depth of the salt lake is only to the instep, and the bottom is a hardened salt layer, as long as it is sunny and windless, the lake surface is like a mirror reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, so it is also called "the mirror of the sky". It seems that all female tourists know that they have to wear a red dress to stand on the lake to take pictures, at least to get a red shawl to wave.
The roads in the scenic area are paved with salt grains, which is amazing.
#黑马河镇洗个澡, met a cattle man
After watching the Chaka Salt Lake, the Shanxi boy's family was going to rush to Xining and take me to Chaka Town to drop me down.
The next morning, take the 8:30 shuttle bus back to The Town of Heima River on the edge of Qinghai Lake. I was thinking about how to take a shower, passing by a hotel, and the owner saw me and said, "Backpack walking?" I said, "Yeah, just got out of the tea card, ready to go around the lake, want to take a bath here, right?" He said, "Okay, 20 bucks!" "Seeing that I agreed, he took me to the bathroom of the guest room, which had an electric water heater. After taking a comfortable shower, I washed my dirty clothes again. Then came out, the boss wrapped in a quilt lying on the bed playing with his mobile phone. Hand him a cigarette and we'll talk. It doesn't matter, the man in his fifties in front of him actually panned for gold in Coco Cili!
Seeing that I was very interested, Boss Zhu (with the name on the business license on the wall) sat up from the bed and talked about his various adventures in Coco Xili 25 years ago, how many Tibetan antelopes were so many that he was shocked, and he was so frightened that he would crowd and trample four or five of them to death. He also said that in the wild, the tractor often picks up the carcasses of Tibetan antelopes that have been skinned by poachers, "they take the skin, we pick up the meat." Asked him how it tasted, he said, "After eating the nose is very dry, the calories are too high." "I also heard him talk about why only hand tractors work in that kind of place, and how to make marks against the mountains so as not to get lost." In the end, even Xining had 7 suites, the eldest daughter got married and he gave a suite and a car, and the younger daughter was not married but drove a sports car.
"It's this one," he said, pointing to the parking lot in the hotel surveillance, where there was a sports car.
In short, the bath did not take much time, listening to his story about the wilderness life experience of his youth took a long time, and many interesting contents could not be expanded here. I thought he was a well-informed cattle man, originally just a farmer.
In the end, we talked speculatively, added WeChat to each other, and even the 20 yuan of bath money that was agreed upon did not want me.
#连吃三碗牦牛面片
Bid farewell to Boss Zhu and leave the town of Heima River, which began to become 208 Provincial Highway, also known as Huanhu West Road.
Less than five kilometers away, a group of people on the grass on the opposite side of the road waved to me, and when I looked over, there were two cars, and there were pot stoves and blowers on the ground. A middle-aged man said, "Come, eat a bowl of yak noodles we made." ”
Unloading my bag and sitting down, someone had already brought me a bowl, and the two grandmothers next to me handed me vinegar bottles and asked me if I wanted spicy.
The noodles are really delicious, much more authentic than those in the Xining restaurant. While eating and chatting with them, it turned out to be a suburb of Xining, and a family of ten people of all ages and children got together to travel.
They were also very happy to see that I was eating well, and kept saying", "Another bowl!" "As a result, I ate three bowls in a row.
They took a picture when they broke up, and then watched them drive away. They went to Qinghai Lake Bird Island, 70 kilometers away. I'm also going to this place, but this point is right on the line around the lake. I declined their ride invitation, but I didn't forget my original intention and continued to hike!
It's only been three days on the road, and I've already met so many different people that I've had them in my head like a movie. They are all strangers, but the joy you feel with them for a short time, and the kinds of fresh information you receive, are something you never have. This is what the so-called "don't go the usual way, just love strangers" is this.
It is not terrible for a person to be in an unfamiliar environment, and he is afraid of wrapping himself tightly and is unwilling to open his heart to communicate with strangers.
On the contrary, if there is a curiosity about the unknown world, and he is not self-centered, good at listening to others, plus willing to endure hardships and travel thousands of miles, then his spirit must be full and happy.
Finally, take note of the mileage of the third day.
In the evening, camp in a beautiful meadow on the side of the road where you can see the lake.
Listen to the Boss Zhu in Heima River Town, saying that watching the sunrise by the lake is beautiful. Look forward to pulling open the tent tomorrow morning to see the red sun rise.
