This time, I went to Hong Kong, slept in Tap Mun Island, walked 10 km at the second section of MacLehose Trail, visited Central, and took a nap at St. John's Church. Although he walks alone, he always walks in the crowd. This time, compared with the first time walking alone 100 km, it was much more comfortable and enjoyable.
I joined the league, but all the cars (30 people) started from Guangzhou, only I joined in Shenzhen (in fact, I prepared to introduce myself, but the team leader gave up without organizing everyone to know). I was crossing the border at the "Man Kam To" port I first heard about, and suddenly I fell asleep and arrived in Saigon.
Tour No.7, due to the extra places temporarily registered at noon the day before, it was too late to exchange Hong Kong dollars. I only brought a foreign currency credit card and came to Hong Kong with my bare hands. Later, it was found that this credit card was completely useless. Finally, I used another savings card to withdraw HK$ 500 from the ATM of Bank of China (Hongkong) (handling fee 15 yuan each, which is actually not bad).
Leave for Tap Mun Island at 0/3: 30pm/kloc. At noon for two hours, I went to the local supermarket in Hong Kong to learn about the daily consumption of rice, oil and salt, visited the small streets in Saigon to see fish and chips, stopped unconsciously, missed Britain and Dartmouth's fish and chips, but still walked forward and saw the sky and the sea without thinking. It was really beautiful, so I waited for a while, watched it for a long time, and then strolled back to the place where I met. Although I'm not hungry, I'm worried that climbing the mountain in the afternoon will consume my strength, so I decided to eat something. When I saw the menu, I thought of McDull, so I ordered "Fish Ball Coarse Noodles".
After dinner, I saw that it was still early, so I went to the residential area in Saigon to feel and experience the local life.
I bought fragrant pears in the vegetable market, watched the children happily swing in the scorching sun, walked through the streets of life, and watched the mixture of traditional Chinese characters and English, and the strangeness and familiarity coexisted. Looking at roadside restaurants, writing a table of 2380 yuan needs to be booked three days in advance, which seems to be not much different from the mainland. At the door of the hardware store next to it, flashlights and gloves were hung, and two little boys stood chatting.
The barber shop next to it says "haircut". Will tourists and villagers have two different price systems? There is a smell of seafood in the vegetable market next to it. On the outer wall, the banner is pulling "Action to Kill Rats". It seems that environmental governance is the key livelihood issue.
I don't know if I observe other people's lives like this, what will the people who are observed and those who live in them think? How would you feel if you lived in your own place and were visited by others? Maybe it is the same.
This playground is very fun, and sports shoes or 4mm spikes are required. Domestic plastic runways seem to be cherished all the time, and some even prohibit wearing spikes. Well, according to the regulations of China, dogs are not allowed to enter here.
Depart from Saigon at noon, take bus No.94 and double-decker bus, twitter like a child, and sit in the first row on the second floor. The scenery is great. When the car is driving on a narrow road, when you see the sea, you can always hear wow in the car. It seems that it is the first time for me and everyone. Go to Huangshi pier and take the ferry. The boat sailed at the slowest speed for about 30 minutes, and then arrived in Tap Mun Island.
The scenery of mountains and seas in the middle of the boat trip reminds me of a poem "I love mountains and seas, and mountains and seas are uneven."
Seeing such scenery, I was thinking, if I am separated from the person I love by such mountains, seas and mountains, then no matter how far and how long the road is, "the mountains and seas I love can be flat"!
Haha, it can be seen that sometimes it is not only people, but also what kind of mountains and seas are in the middle, which is also very important.
Thirty minutes on the ferry passed leisurely, huddled in the corner of the second deck, lying on the railing, thinking that it would be nice if we could keep driving like this. However, the ship will dock eventually. After the first landing trip, the ship left again, and I was excited to take pictures of the passing islands and fishing villages. Fishing rafts like that always make people wonder what seafood is cultivated. Although I have no special feelings for seafood, such scenery is always easy to make people dream. Just looking at the fishing raft is like smelling a seafood dinner.
When I arrived in Tap Mun Island, I met my little sister who lived with her at night (I always thought she and her sister were twins, and later I asked if they were twins, but they were really alike, in every way). I'm a little worried that it will be difficult to set up a tent. I forget who used it for a long time in the variety show, but Yaoyao is very capable. He not only chose the site decisively, but also had a slightly inclined hillside with the tent door facing east and west, so that the north and south would not fall sideways from the slope when they fell asleep.
After the tent was set up, I went to the seaside at the foot of the mountain, sat and meditated for half an hour, feeling the sea breeze, the waves and breathing seriously. Then go into the water barefoot until the seawater submerges your knees and observe the underwater world at close range. I found a big conch, in which lived a hermit crab. I stared at it quietly and crawled out a little bit, but I was worried that it would be caught by its pliers and thrown into the sea far away. After landing, I saw small crabs and shells in the crevices where the tide receded. The person who went snorkeling next to him held a mass of black things and shouted, "Do you want sea urchins? There are many ... "
If this day comes here, it will be calm and beautiful. But life always makes me experience more.
I took a bath with toiletries and got lost when I came back. I couldn't tell the difference in the dark and took a road I hadn't taken during the day. It took me a long time to feel the smell, sound and road conditions are very different. The lights on this road are darker, and even some sections are completely black. My mobile phone was dying, so I didn't turn on the flashlight. Walking, there is a big well in front of me. The iron net on it is rusty, much like the ancient well in the ghost story when I was a child, and it seems that the most terrible things in this village are locked in it. I haven't heard of Niu Jiao, so I panicked for dozens of seconds and wanted to cry, but I didn't dare to make a sound.
No prince came with a sword, no hero came to greet me. This is the only time I can save myself. I'll stay as far away from the big well as possible, and I won't get stuck in the ditch next to it. I will walk as quietly and quickly as possible to the end of the road with a bright and flustered heart until I see the familiar road signs at the end of the road and the people bathing in the campsite in twos and threes. Looking back, I glanced at it at noon. Why did I walk out of that unknown road? ......
As they approached the camp, the sound became noisy. Looking up, the stars in the sky bear the silent expectation all day. The camp lights in the tent lit up one by one, dyed the color of the tent and became colorful. There are also star lights tied in the shape of arches, cheering and jumping, and the tension of getting lost disappears in an instant.
When I returned to the tent, I saw the strange eyes of the people next to me. Through chatting, I found the legendary wild boar coming. There are nearly 100 tents in the camp. It only arched the room where I lived, opened the schoolbag tied by my roommate and took a bag of bread. Looking at the hole in the tent, I was angry and funny. The funny thing is that the mother next to me educates the children. If you don't obey, the wild boar who arches the tent next to you will take you away. What is exasperating is that mosquitoes can't be avoided at night on such a seaside hillside.
It was so hot that I opened the outer layer of the tent and looked at the starry sky through a gauze. This moment is always good anyway. The sound of playing cards and chatting in the camp and pushing a cup for a change continued until late at night, and I fell asleep under the stars with mosquitoes.
Just after 5 am, the sound of the camp began to get louder and the sky was dazzling. I slept in the east, just right where the sun rises. At 5: 40, from 5: 20, a group of people squatted on the hillside, waiting with mobile phones.
After watching the sunrise, after 6 o'clock, the sun came out and the temperature suddenly rose. I slept until half past six and finally surrendered and got up. Tidy up and wash, fold the tent, get ready to assemble, and take a boat to hike the wheat trail. Walking through the lost intersection last night, regardless of the strange eyes of my little friend behind me, I decided to see what was in the ancient well that scared me out of my wits yesterday (in fact, I didn't want to dream back at midnight, which became the standard scene of my nightmare).
After reading it, I have no idea, just a big well. The shallow iron net cover added by the villagers to prevent falling scared me in the dark. That strange sound is a duck in a nearby field. I don't know why it's short, and it's different from ordinary voice. And go straight, and you'll reach a fork in the road that won't go wrong during the day but is mysterious at night.
Looking back, laughing, this is probably the most interesting memory of this trip.
It is said that Maijing is one of the top ten hiking sections in the world, and the second section is the most beautiful section of Maijing 10.
I arrived at the starting point by speedboat, just got off the boat, it rained cats and dogs, and it was still sunny when I went out. Hiding in the gazebo from the rain, but after 5 minutes, the rain stopped. So we set off, on the empty mountain after the rain, in the hot and humid, at this time, the sun came out to join in the fun.
I have to admit that the mountain roads and outdoor infrastructure in Hong Kong are really good. There are few steps in the mountain road, and most of them are light anti-skid roads. It seems that repairing such a road is more difficult than repairing steps, at least the work is more complicated. The first trip was 2-3 kilometers, and I was a little breathless. The lady next to me asked, how far have we gone? The little brother in front replied, about 3 kilometers, there are still 8 kilometers. Come on!
It instantly reminded me of a little joke I heard when I was hiking 100 km: when I walked from 100 km to 80 km, I almost exhausted my strength and relied entirely on willpower. At this time, volunteers on the roadside cheered for the players. Come on, there are only 20 kilometers left, and then the players cry. Why tell me (20 kilometers to go)?
These two days are the college entrance examination, and along the wheat trail, some poems will always pop up unconsciously, such as: Jieshi sees the sea in the East. I sometimes think, if it weren't for the college entrance examination, how could I remember such a poem for so long?
All the way over the mountains, always walking behind the team leader, in the second position of the team. First, I really feel that the body can release the power to support speed, and second, I can have more rest time. When the team leader stopped for the nth time to wait for other teammates, two girls and a little brother couldn't help telling the team leader not to rest and to keep walking. However, I don't feel tired I walk slowly in front, so I can take pictures leisurely, so I keep walking, but I don't want to start walking alone.
The forest is dense, and the stream where the rain has just fallen has not completely precipitated the soil. At this time, the sun shone through the leaves, and the dew on the leaves gave off beautiful seven-color light, which became dreamy with the stream.
I'm so addicted, I enjoy taking photos and taking a walk from an angle. Soon I came to the seaside of Yantian, which is the most beautiful beach in the whole journey. I was worried that I was too far away from the team, so I sat down and waited for the team leader and fell asleep on the slate until the team leader came to wake me up (probably the pink sunscreen and schoolbag convinced him that it was his team members who were asleep). After the dream (about 30 minutes), I felt exhausted. I'll take the lead and go alone. Passing through Tanjiawan Village, I saw a beautiful river, similar to the Exe River I miss. I couldn't help but stop to play in the water, and I didn't leave until the team leader caught up with me and overtook me.
Unexpectedly, after crossing a village, I couldn't find the shadow of the leader. Intuitively, I followed people and walked on the hiking trail. The sun is brighter, the slope of the mountain road is shaking more and more, and all the way is uphill and continuous. I couldn't hold on any longer, so I sat down and rested for 3 minutes and felt my heart beating violently.
I'm soaked through with sweat. I followed the sound of water and saw a little wow water. I suddenly understood the mood of the heroine taking a bath in the wild in costume TV series. How happy it would be to soak in such water in such a big sun and such a hot day. I left step by step. When I saw the water again, I couldn't help but take off my gloves and hat and immerse my hands in the water to enjoy the rare coolness.
I walked back and forth with a little brother three times along the way, but I never took the initiative to talk. Probably the high temperature and fatigue have consumed 80% of my attention, and now there are still 20%. I have been worried that I have gone the wrong way, so I have never seen the team leader again.
And the finish line appeared when I was completely unprepared. For a moment, I felt that walking was not enough, and I didn't seem to have walked far. After sitting at the finish line for nearly twenty minutes, the team leader came in a hurry. At this moment, I suddenly feel that I have made a lot of progress than when I walked 100 km.
From Maijing to Saigon, take the bus to downtown and the subway to Central. Since Miss Fiona Fang and I went to Hongkong last year, I have been worried about two things. Wolf label tea shop "mango white dew jasmine chest cover" and St. John's church.
In the morning, I only ate soda cakes. I searched at noon and went to lan fong yuen to eat pork buns first. Walking around on the map, there were too many people waiting in line in lan fong yuen, so I gave up, but I found the surf shop by memory. One second before placing the order, I replaced the mango with a new pineapple. Whether it's mango/pineapple, litchi or even peach, it seems to be delicious with cold jasmine.
I walked to St. John's church, which was crowded with people. I think I should find a quiet corner to sit down. After sitting down, I found a man and a woman in a wedding dress and a suit standing in front of the priest's sacrificial table. The camera's coming around. I think, oh, I met him during filming. But after listening carefully and watching for a while, I found that this is really a wedding.
After the priest paid tribute, the two sides vowed to exchange rings. Carol, and this is Carmen played by the church organ, which suddenly made me realize that this is actually a wedding song. After the ceremony, when the couple accepted the blessing and walked slowly to the church door, the Wedding March sounded. Everything is so sacred, grand, but warm, the bride cried and the groom cried. Listen to the groom's vows:
Listen to her vows when exchanging rings:
I don't know whether men and women in China know the meaning of this ring when they exchange rings when they get married, whether they know the meaning of being poor and unswerving, and whether they can always keep their vows in their hearts and abide by them all their lives.
I don't know whether they will quarrel in the next days or whether they will be together all their lives. I'm just moved, but I can't help crying. I am lucky to have such a wonderful moment, because I just want to sit in the church and take a nap.
This may not directly change my idea that a person may be more comfortable, but it has sown beautiful seeds in my heart. Perhaps the sweetness of life lies in the days when I have been immersed in bitterness, and occasionally there will be such a shining sweet moment, which will become sweeter and sweeter. Bitterness may be the norm, but sweetness requires special taste buds.
The road from Hong Kong to Shenzhen became brisk, and when I left the church, my heart was peaceful and sweet.
From an early age, my father emphasized the concept of time, brushing teeth and washing for three minutes, watching TV for no more than half an hour and so on. Sometimes I feel guilty watching a play or lying in bed. But this trip, I suddenly feel that life is sometimes very leisurely.
Last time someone chose to say that I was a little impatient, but I once said that I was serious emotionally. Sometimes I feel my state when I sleep at night, and sometimes I feel that I have been in a tight state. This time, after a short rest, I felt the feeling of slowing myself down. In fact, what should be done is still to be done. Stop and think. For work, the goal of hard work is more clear. I think it's good.
Maybe, next time I will travel alone. Maybe, I have to go alone for many days. But after these two trips, I baptized with the church and came back to tell my friends about the situation along the way. Suddenly I feel that Excellence, beauty and gentleness may not be the necessary conditions to measure people. Only by learning to really get along with yourself can you enjoy a person's journey.
Xi Murong said, I am slim, carefree and fearless.
Well, I'm 29 years old, and I'm not afraid to walk alone in the crowd.
