May 11, we are wandering in the Shigatse, in the Lee master kind invitation to his home to eat lunch. Probably know we have always, in addition to instant noodles is a cake, therefore, prepared a lot of cooking there Zhu Tourou. We have never eaten such a sweet-smelling food, wiped out. Lee finished his master from the outside to pack the car back, said: the rest of the bag away. Us laugh: Which there are leftover呀. He read also quite happy to test with told us that: I can not bring his wife to Lhasa, let her stroll to go? We are a promised: What's not work. As long as the car of land, with whoever they want.
We went to the Gyangze, a traffic police stopped us, he was familiar with Master Li. Because of family emergencies, we must rush back to Lhasa. Partly cloudy weather to the anti-Ning Gold Sand peak, huge glaciers has been extended to the road. On the road is also covered with a thin layer of snow.
In Gyantse, we did not go to the Zongshan Castle, but to liberation of Tibet, one of the three largest slave estate. Many of the rooms here have maintained that they fled when the original conditions. Slave wife in the room furniture was shipped over from Shanghai, so the old Shanghai Second, thirties style. Dressing table filled with sets of French cosmetics, and now we seem very extravagant. With the Dalai Lama, like his master has also built a palace for himself, very spacious, sunny, all kinds of chairs are a precious fur shop, as well as monkey skin. Manor, there are a house built in the temple, decorated very beautifully colored glass windows and doors can be automatically lift to expand the use of space.
We simply visit, the North Korea Yang Zhuo Yong measures hurry, hoping to see the beautiful sunset. Increasingly thick clouds of heaven in Tibet can get the most generous sunshine, and now suddenly mean up, not a trace of dew. We are coming, the sheep lake surface wide, endless, blue and far-reaching. Cumulus clouds in the sky burst open, and revealing front-line blue sky, a few Road Golden fired surface, and the dark sky and the lake phase contrast, exceptionally bizarre. Tens of seconds, the cloud again Ae live, the lake resumed dark and quiet.
Lake built many houses and modern small building, it was defeated by King.
12, we will leave Lhasa in the morning, so missed the starry night. More than 10, we began to climb gambara Hill. Very large trucks traveling on the road. Weather was extremely bad and it began to downpour. We are concerned that after the rain stopped, the road will be frozen, so hope that we can climb over 5080 meters of gambara Yamaguchi.
Cars are stopped, and Lee continue to read on the master and said: flat tire, and I went to unload spare tire. We have heard, the heart is cold. Return through the Sa Karma, Lee went to his fellow master of the garage opened, hoping to unload the bad spare tire repaired, but after a long journey, and the chain has rust dead, we must use gas welding cut the chain, they do not have this equipment, only relinquish. Now is the time to unload what is the use? Kobayashi, small forces and the traffic police are off the car to help. Outside the rain-soaked, such as injection. The opposite side to the back of trucks and cars blocked the way, they seem to have become accustomed to this scene, all quiet parked, or reminders. We are not listening to outside voices, carefully look at a live rain, but it began to snow goose feather, there were numerous, Shashi, the road had been white. Then cheer up outside Master Li, the original he found a foot in the gang-jen Pochin pick a brand new inner tube, he has been Retention, and now put to use the. Spare tire would not have unloaded, and as long as for inner tubes, resort to enough gas on it. Trucks are generally equipped with pump, we compared, by the way several times, they are unwilling to. Side of the road traffic police car found in trucks, cars Gyangze license, they borrowed pump, the driver although the cold, and also due to come and help. Fast car repaired. We wait until the truck empties Gyangze over, leaving him some anti-inflammatory drugs. Tibetan medicine is generally not sick, first, medicine is too expensive, may also have belief.
More than three in the morning, our car finally bid farewell to a bumpy dirt road, onto a flat asphalt road. Ma looked at the roadside close to the accommodation, continuous lights, the shuttle's traffic, Ali's experience Manasarovar. That boundless wilderness of sand to avoid day, magnificent snow-capped mountains, beautiful grassland, mysterious lakes filled the birds, the stars shining, an enormous full moon ... ... In retrospect it all seems like real magic.
Ali is a heaven, Ali is hell, but Ali is by no means earth!
