This year's National Day and the force at a friend's encouragement, the opportunity to leave early again, and finally determined to do a long car trip, which lasted more than 10 days, via Beijing - Shanxi - Inner Mongolia - Ningxia - Gansu, and enjoying the motherland great rivers and mountains, forests, grasslands, deserts, Gobi, glaciers snow-capped mountains, monuments, rural residence, during which also experienced many difficulties and dangers and excitement into my life, I can not forget the memories. To be able to continue to preserve this experience, carried out along the run-length record, regarded as the daily running account. As I pen this on Zhise, and many had to replace the description with the photo. Members who are interested can see, multi-pat brick, as after dinner entertainment.
September 25: Take the night 8:15 of the aircraft to Beijing, friends, and he ld on the open we had trips Baoju: Chevrolet Blazers pick me, night after arriving home study travel routes, until the early hours of Caishui
September 26: The next day a friend drove to work in Japan, went to the Asian Games Village Automobile decoration store near a "month-fu auto decoration market," some of the pioneers to dress up: installation of a roof luggage rack, foil, spent 2250 yuan. The afternoon and a friend went to the Xidan bookstore purchases a large number of maps and travel books. The evening everyone went to one called "Sibelius You-noodle" dinner, a pre-taste western food, taste really good, primarily in Shanghai enjoy unattainable. Beijingers really have delicious food, all food all over the country, and authentic, unlike Shanghai, that is, there are a taste of the majority.
September 27: Morning rushed to Beijing's largest auto parts market to install a front bumper and top light. Vehicles moved into the market no direction, everywhere car, turned around three times stupefied not find parking spaces, and had to stop in the market outside the mud. To enter the market, people not any direction, it is a very large place, all kinds of auto parts counter continuous turning disoriented I was in, regardless of anything. Finally finally found a bumper and fitted to buy a special headlamps counter to talk about a good price to determine patterns (in fact, have nothing to talk about price, has always been to do wholesale, retail is not cold), spend 950 yuan. Zhuang Wan later by the effect can also be that the luggage rack were only installed two lights, I feel like less, no way, time is running out, but to the next repeat (ld to a friend took the name "little frog" due to head, two small round lights like a frog's ear). At noon went to one called "Ginger Duck" restaurants, Taiwanese flavor, fragrant sour nourishing. Think of little things the afternoon, we intend to go to Tianjin and time, will be old school. Go Jingjintang high-speed, out of Beijing began to rain, spent a half hours. Come back when the rain stopped, cars less, on the high-speed only when an hour from home.
September 28: 7:00 am get up, pack up, finishing equipment. We are fairly full range of equipment, tents, sleeping bags, gas stoves, climbing ropes, a large bag maps, mobile phones, portable computers, handheld GPS (satellite navigation instrument ), etc., filled with the trunk. 7:30 Three of us starting this journey began. The car in the South Third Ring Road to the Badaling high-speed walking, the Beijing traffic jam is also very keen. The original formulation from the West Second Ring Road, North Second Ring Road, North Third Ring Road on the Badaling high-speed, resulting in the wrong on the Second Ring Road, a trance-like pass by on the Badaling high-speed exit, had to back to the Anzhen Bridge Bypass, and other high-speed has been faster on the Badaling 9:00 a. Along the way we all laugh at each other: not yet lost out on the Second Ring Road, Beijing, but also the GPS guidance, saying that is not being Xiaodiaodaya out? My heart was secretly worried about, is not it indicates that this trip will face big trouble? I never thought really fulfilled my worries, this comes later.
Fill up at the entrance to the Badaling high-speed gasoline, a spare belt also included a military tank was full. Along the way we talked and laughed, and I feel relaxed, excited, knew the out of Beijing. After a Juyongguan soon after the car into the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Expressway (Beijing - Zhangjiakou), eyes suddenly see the light, vision is very broad, distant mountains and rolling, mountain handsome, and the South Mountain is completely different styles, and personality to the north is somewhat similar to , frank hale and hearty. And then going forward, it can be seen a patch of grassland and meadow, with the handsome mountains constitute a beautiful landscape. Friend's ld is plmm, but also rave drive, speed, referred to 170 yards. Chevron seems to really good, that does not float, it is stable.
10:40, vehicle left the Beijing-Zhangjiakou High-speed, high-speed transfer Xuanda (Xuanhua - Datong) to Datong direction.
11:35 at the exit of the original Yang Xuan high speed to the yang of the original counties north direction. After a Jiao Zhao Jia Gou village, it means that we have entered the territory of Shanxi. In Zhaojiagou found where the houses are all out in yellow mud base, built on mountains, very rural atmosphere, evidently is not very rich. Very bad path enters the village to go, the local go cart or carts are generally cars from entering. Fortunately, our "little frog" is a four-wheel drive, switch to a four-wheel drive, and finally climbed into the village. As we take pictures when the village an old lady came and asked some of our words, we also did not understand, probably what we are asking for. Is estimated that this place has never even visited the tourist or stranger. We are embarrassed to say that play, and can only vaguely say "look," Granny believed it: "is ready to build roads?" I said: "Yes, yes," Granny: "is here or over there?" "This piece is," Having the three of us quickly into the car, fled and left the village. Mind a certain old lady full of hope: The Government finally a road in the village! Now they're all want to come to the village do not live the simple good old Mrs Although this is just a white lie.
Zhaojiagou left to go north, after we have been through m pay off in the days a little less than a county town, where, GPS showed a direct path to the main provincial road, so we turned to the West. Surprisingly, this trail is so difficult to walk, which were dirt roads, mud everywhere, water, speed can only be 20 to 30 yards, staggered finally open to the main road, off north to the Yanggao county. Did not expect even this GPS map of the trail are also finding out there are shows that real cow! In the next few days journey, GPS has indeed played no small role in the next refrain from that.
Gao Yang County, in a break in the "Kanto Xiaomian King" will continue after lunch to eat the road, towards the direction of Inner Mongolia liangcheng open. This section of road is not very good picture that they are also good, there are many hills along the meadow, sheep herders in a leisurely manner. Blue sky with white clouds, grass Aries, but also a field natural scenery.
In the evening, we went to the liangcheng found near the front there is a large lake, very beautiful scenery. Query maps, that this piece of lake is called "daihai." Drove into the, the lake is the endless prairie, groups of cattle and sheep are grazing under the setting sun, the horizon hung a brilliant touch of pink clouds. We were fascinated by the immediate landscape, and have come up with the camera and kept filming until the sunset horizon. At this time only to find the way back found. In fact, when you come there is no road, the car only if the grasslands were immersed Mercedes-Benz. Fortunately, we have a GPS, the route has been entered, when marked, go back and just press down the path of incoming. GPS adjust immediately to the display range of 500 meters, immediately found the original way. GPS, this feature really helped us busy, or else there really be a car to the lake tout a night.
Hohhot rush to leave straight after Daihai, arriving at 9:30 was already divided. To find a few hotels, they finally found an affordable hotel, facilities also good. A look at odometer, today opened more than 600 kilometers.
