May 13 diary
I went back to Nanjing last night.
After 25 days and more than 10,000 kilometers, he completed the 318 Sichuan-Tibet Line and the 109 Qinghai-Tibet Line Grand Ring Road, fulfilling one of his wishes.

The last section of the Qinghai-Tibet line, the section from Wudaoliang to Golmud, is also the most exciting section of our trip. In addition to the visual impact brought by the changes in the natural landscape and landform, the biggest surprise to us is the various snowy plateau elves in the uninhabited area of Hoh Xil. The first thing I saw was a sheep-like animal with two white "white spots" on its buttocks and a "heart" shape, and everyone cheered: Tibetan antelope! After driving for more than ten minutes, I saw a larger flock of sheep, many with long black-brown horns on their heads. Everyone began to argue, and finally verified the network, and it turned out that the first thing they saw was the Tibetan antelope, also known as the Tibetan yellow sheep. The one I see now with a huge body and a long black-brown horn on its head is a Tibetan antelope, and there is another cheer!

On the road from Wudaoliang to Kunlun Pass for more than 100 kilometers, it is really full of the eyes of this life, and a total of eleven groups of Tibetan antelopes have been seen, more than 30 of them, and some of them are 5 or 6. I also saw herds of Tibetan wild ass, wild yaks and cute Tibetan yellow sheep with white spots in the shape of "heart" on their buttocks.
From Golmud to Xining for half a day, homesick, and then from Xining all the way to Nanjing, two days to rush back to Nanjing. 2000 kilometers, driving alone, it's really an old man talking about juvenile madness! ▓ Qin Zhiqiang / text and picture
