First Note: This is actually a lot of money one travels, but it also is somewhat outdated, at best, to satisfy a number of chat only.

Early Spring in February, because of work demands, I mobilized from Chengdu to Kunming, Yunnan Province. Yin Yun hazy from Chengdu to Kunming, a lovely spring, my mind there are some vaguely disturbing, but also a hint of excitement.
I'll try if nothing had happened, people unsure about whether I am in a tragedy. Yuan Ting is because although I do not envy others, but more poor people do not need to. Because I really do not understand the intentions of those who often complain of people, in addition to compassion, the sympathy, if not a collection of hobbies, they probably want to obtain some compensation for strike.
Chinese New Year has just passed, always decorated, street festivals everywhere there were still remains, along with holiday deserted. I have no mental will, hastily left after clean up.
To Kunming is the afternoon, the streets of Chengdu, the time was still very cold spell Xiren, the plane was full of spring hold of one. This is the plateau Mody, indeed.
I am dragging luggage Dengzhe heavy boots out of the airport, but can not call a taxi. Every see a car over, a group of people swarmed to go, everyone seems to have tremendous courage and wisdom, which shows no lack of courageous people here.
Crowd gradually dilute, non-anti-out from the windows inside the head along with a dark voice: you are to the hotel Mody? I, agreeing completely, shaking his head, dark head is no longer reason I am. I think that taxi and bus parks and even public toilets and so on public roads, like, all for the public "service" stuff, then stained with seven points to be snobbish, Liuqinburen.
With great difficulty with people carpool one, but with us is filled with rides, when the streets of Kunming festival really is a good, clean and tidy, in many places still to start, think this is the Expo's sake.
QЖ (C) (= KJM
On that day the state was ordered to go to the Red River travel, starting already 21 o'clock more. When we Chu Liaocheng, dark days of the street have lost the shelter, has not see the roadside scenery, I just feel exceptionally cool weather Dao Shi. I sat in the back seat of vehicles accompanying stature ups and downs, and for this Shuangqi night, gradually sleep.
After we went to old city, linger a few days old is the Red River state capital, to the famous tin-rich. Often in the mountains here, the self-employed accounted for mining is king, together, as Outlaws of the Marsh in the hero who has said --- bowl to drink large scale sub-grant ----, greatly fortune. Gejia are a number of cowboys hired thugs, when there are gang fights wins mine happened, so security is not good. When the work is completed, we hurried away from this contentious region, all the way to the estuary was driven away.
Driving through the Pingbian, we have been in a state of downhill, because old is still red clay plateau, while the mouth of the border with Vietnam, a very low altitude. I looked out the window to the car and found that the ground side of the road a lot like the kinds of vegetables like Wu Shi, I asked my colleagues are. Colleagues is an old man, he smiled and said: Guess what, this is a fruit-mile. I would like to mangoes in Yunnan Province is relatively well-known, so is mango, the result does not, when the mango festival not listed on it. See I really could not guess, colleagues say it: The original is pineapple, really incredible. Then we saw the roadside in front of one after another, many wholesale pineapple banana stalls, there are many large trucks were busy loading, I have carefully read the license plate, in addition to Sichuan, the Shaanxi-Gansu and so there are actually cars. After the truck has opened the way fruit fragrance.
I have a subjective belief that, like pineapple, apples and peaches that grow on trees, and can not think of it is so ignorant. This matter was the school I used to test others, they also could not answer, we can see in the world to many people in our ears for granted.
After a series, and finally all the way along the mountain road from the red clay plateau to mouth. Not to have obviously felt hostile, dry body suddenly become wet sticky, the air incessantly depressed. I do not know geometry wearing leather when unloaded, remaining in a shirt and a sweat close to the vest on. This is Vietnam's Lao Cai counties across the river from the estuary of the.
River in southern Xinjiang Yunnan border of a small town, a very low altitude. Here hot and humid weather, tropical jungles, where the people seem rather low stature, with dark skinny, prominent cheekbones, down with the Vietnamese is almost the same (yond an open border town, city, many Vietnamese, in the we are concerned, only through the language to differentiate). It seems people's faces, and local climate, there are relationships can not be ignored, otherwise why would "the orange for the orange in Huainan, Huaibei, compared to the trifoliate orange."
Not yet reached the river mouth, the thought of Vietnamese and evil, and the hearts of some vaguely worried. I take away my colleagues, now at peace, border trade is also a very prosperous Gaode miles. I think the relationship between nations is really frightening is tightly built, than the couple of lovers Break-even more disgusting, if I can not really describe. Bei Meng, breach of contract and back under the knife, as long as not lose their own, then triumphant peace of mind, but also written into the history of special blow big blow. This is ugly and dirty than everything evil the relationship between the partial crown of Health and it is always wrapped in a layer of the coat.
The evening, have suggested to the mouth of the River Walking (said Jiang, in fact nothing but a slightly wider stream, although this brook is the boundary between the two countries), a variety of shops riverside lights. We visited the craft market, out, head-over look like a handsome woman, dead stare at me Look, I bluntly, staring in Iraq until the passing mind can not help but fell a bit proud. When we turn back, then came forward in Iraq approached. I'd see him come over, heart can not help but secretly shook his head.
Iraq asked us whether or not to the Vietnamese girl, knowing that we come: The original was actually only the pimps. We agree shook his head (Can we say either that what Zeixin have no Zeidan), Iran refuses to give up, like the festival, like chasing a fly pestering us to go quite a long way, to see which two eggs seems to There is no seam, only reluctantly went.
After each visit to riverside walk (not that we necessarily go to riverside walk, because we live in a hotel will be at the riverside, does not want to "riverside walk," and can not), would encounter similar incidents. On one occasion three of us back to dinner, the event is not an old pimps, Iraq pulled us a drink Weizui colleague said: Vietnamese girl, 12-year-old, 30 of money, very beautiful, very cheap. Yi Bi said, Yibi indiscreet remarks, Yibi also got me to colleagues to pull the. We Qiaode stunned, first, that the efficiency of the hands and feet really high, I'm afraid it had a long with the Buddhist goddess temple should also be ashamed of; Second, think of the Vietnamese girl grow up so quickly; third of Vietnam and its people is no good impression ; Fourth, actually be so "cheap"; Fifth, pimps actually think that we are the cheap people ......
From this we can imagine that some of Miss Saigon and the Saigon some romantic affair.
Sunshine effortlessly through the dust, I faint halo on the ground shaking, the air moist but filthy water in the stream slowly idly flow stream is dark green above, many of a variety of colors Wu Shi afloat and kept while emitting a thick smell of the smell, nauseating endless. This is the mouth of the county town of South Stream. Of course, the city, which is mouth people say.
Because of their work at the same time work was with the weather here is not the same as well, in the South Stream this small town to stay for several days. These few days, morning to evening, and from South Stream and the estuary. Pressure at work infected our hearts, we see what felt wrong color. Good or ill will be completed, and heart think users are not satisfied with the leadership, also are bound to laissez-faire attitude, and can be heart is still laughing.
Sometimes I wonder, Yunnan people (except perhaps to Kunming people) so simple, almost able to do Lubushiyi be, why was the wanton destruction of the environment? Yao is the unconscious, that it not barbaric ignorance it? Does that not undermine the binding nature of the pursuit of natural Mody? Bu Zhiyu this stupid strike. But the fact is: The original forest is now already high loess slope before the pure river water, but now it dirty cross-flow ........
However, that is, to the World Horticultural Exposition in Kunming in full bloom, is a reward Mody, is to encourage Mody, I do not know.
Perhaps I was a bit too picky. Perhaps I should see, this is also the country's general situation, but not even egalitarian environment, too, must do? A last resort, is not known.
This is how, and from Kunming to the mouth, from one decorated with flowers and green city into a dirty town. Flowers may be a temporary or permanent needs, dirty may be too busy to take into account, then we look to put them where?
