There are many like-minded asking me about it. I now present this thread to briefly tell everybody about my journey.The starting point of this traverse was from the highest peak of the western part of the Tibetan plateau, Jieshan Daban, and the day was April 20, 2010.I was heading eastward passing Bungdag Co, Yanghu Co, Rola Co, and Kangzhagri Mountain, which crossed over the desolate region from west to east. The journey continued northward to enter the unpopulated area of Altun Mountains, through Hoh Xil Mountains, Kunlun Mountains, Whale lake, ..., finally met some people by the Aqqikkol Hu and then arrived in Huatugou by vehicle three days later and that day was July 5. It had been 77 days in total. I had been all alone 74 days after leaving Jieshan Daban until arriving inAqqikkol Hu, which was about 1400km and about four months.[The Great Chang Tang] In Tibetan, "Chang Tang" means northern empty wilderness while narrowly, means unpopulated region in northern part of Tibet. However, it actually indiCATes all of the no man's land in northern. The great Chang Tang includes desolate places in Northern Tibet, Hoh Xil, Alun Mountains, and Kunlun Mountains, which are interconnected to form the unique and super empty wilderness in the world. Only because Hoh Xil is the most known name, most people just think this vast land is equivalent to Hoh Xil. In reality, Hoh Xil is only a small piece of the Great Chang Tang both administratively and geologically. The Great Chang Tang, the last land to chase your freedom and dream.The route that I traversed ForeplayI arrived in Tibet in the early March, a couple of troubles bothered me. The brand new plug got its positive and negative wrongly connected; the rivets of my rucksack eASIly got broken from now and again; and a multi-functional charger got damaged and so on. Riding my bike to Ngari for warming up of this journey, lost my rucksack but later got it back; lost my camera bag and got it back later again, and finally lost a big bicycle pannier in the street of Gyangze town under the eyes of police, including clothes, solar panel and so on.Without much choice, I returned to Lhasa to adjust all the stuff I would need in the wilderness. Then I begged some luck by going to Nyingchi to enjoy the blossoms of peach trees and to take a hot spring bath. I even had the privilege to enjoy time with ten girls in the hot spring. I felt my bad luck had all gone and then returned to Lhasa again to prepare going to Ngari. I did not expect that I was cheated on by some hustler and lost some money and delayed my schedule for a week. I had to find a car myself quickly to Nagri. However, I lost the tool for fast-parting my rear wheel on my way to Nagri, where was a remote area in Tibet and nowhere to buy the tool. Even if there was one in Lhasa it would take at least ten days for a special delivery service. I was lucky that my mate Duola asked a driver to bring the tool for me from Lhasa. I thought there should be no more nightmare like this but the nozzle of my brand new multi-fuel stove was broken. The next day I tried everywhere to weld them back together. The first three shops could not do the welding for copper. The fourth one said they could do it but could not guarantee a sUCCess. The engineer said it would be ten Chinese yuans if it was a success. I agreed. Just in seconds, my nozzle became crap in a flash of lightening. I was so upset. Again, Duola helped me by bringing her own MSR oil stove and Dingding's sleeping bag to Nagri. That was already April 16 and I did not have much time to waste. The following day I found a vehicle heading to Jieshan Daban.The sand storm over Yarlung Zangbo RiverA lonely peach tree blossoming in Yarlung Zangbo Grand CanyonNatural hot spring in wild, me singing and drinking (photo by a friend of mine) Day 1(April 20), 16km, Camping 5192mIt was a truck with a full load of iron wastes, arriving in Jieshan Daban at 6'o clock in the morning. It was still night and extremely cold and dark. Driver was not bothered to pop his head out of the driving cab. I climbed up on the top of the iron wastes, taking my bicycle down. In a hurry, I punched my old water bag. Fortunately I had another MSR water bag given by a friend of mine otherwise I would definitely fail without even starting my journey. For the first time for me to set up the brand new tent in strong, cold winds. It would be impossible to do so if the tent was not a whole piece. Extremely cold outside, about -15C, might be lower than that, I put my head into the sleeping bag but was nearly suffocated to death, honestly. The smell of Dingding's sleeping bag was, lol, so extraordinary. I woke up around 11 o'clock. There were still strong winds outside so that I had to use my bodyweight to keep the tent in place. At the time when I just started to cook and eat, four patrolling soldiers approached me. To their surprise someone, in this season, camped in Jieshan Daban. I was so nervous and afraid they were the people to block my journey because I was caught and deported from the desolate land last year. Luckily the four soldiers did not know my destination and were very kind to me. After they left, I immediately packed my stuff and pushed my bike into the depths of the unpopulated area just in case anything unexpected happened.The bike was very heavy due to the provisions and hard to control. There was even a quite small hill that I had to remove my bike panniers to get over it. This really struck me because this happened even the path was still the hardship one at the moment and I could not imagine what I would do once I entered the uncertain, endless wilderness. Until now I had not met anyone, even the nomadic pastoralists. I remembered there were quite a few of them roaming at the edge of the northern Tibetan plateau last year. All of these indicated it was not the good pasture season in such low temperature and strong winds. Around 16km there was a sheep cote, where I passed it last year, east of Lungmu Co. I was exhausted at this point so that I decided to camp in here and to rest my head. After arranging tent everything I went out to look for the wetland discovered by Duola and Liumeng last year. I was determined to find it.There were many hot springs in the wetland which were underground water with a constant temperature. The wetland therefore became an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such harsh weather, which was the very unique land feature of terrain in this over 5200m highland.Perpetual snow in the valley blown to corn shape by strong windsThis wetland was discovered by Duola and Liumeng. The workers at a nearby mine did not know it and I too missed it last yearUnderground water with a constant temperature, an ideal habitat for some fishes and weeds under such icy weather 感谢大伙儿支持和加分，不一一回复了。特别感谢多啦，希望能有机会一起喝酒吃肉。 Day 2 (April 21), 0km, Camping5192mBlustering gale all night, up and down like ocean waves. The next day rather than continuing to travel, I stayed inside the sheep cote, hesitating and pondering over. Indeed, there were so many problems before this journey;I did not have sufficient physical preparation;the load had already reached its limitation; I still coughed a lot;the weather was so extreme and cold. All in all, I did not think this journey was well prepared and I did not have confidence in completing this journey mentally and physically. To do, or not to do, it was the question. Similarly I did not have confidence in my facilities, not knowing whether all of them would work functionally or not. The fact was one of the rivets got broken again and the front rack came loose. In the afternoon, I replaced all the rivets of the panniers with screws I had prepared before. This was an excellent job I had done which gave me no further troubles throughout my whole journey. I also re-adjusted the front rack. However I did not think it would definitely all right because I did not have a tool to do it. When the darkness descended,I made up my mind to continue my journey, which, of course, was not beyond any imagination. Orchid-like weedsSmall springs everywhere, clear and chillyA thin layer of ice covering the fresh spring water The sheep cote, it was the door under the sleeping bag, which was in the same place as last year, everything looked like yesterdayThe wetland at duskLungmu Co at dusk. You could hear the gigantic sound of wind if the picture had a sound Day 3 (April 22), 52.4km, Camping 5145mGot up in the morning, could not put everything into the bags. Without much choice I had to throw away three portions of tsampa, elbow pads, and crampons. Following the road of the lead-zinicmine I found the side path to enter the wilderness, which was on the riverbed and very hard to see. I missed this side path last year so that I had to take a short cut into the wilderness directly then. That was why I had taken extra care to find the side path. The following journey was to get over a big hill, which lay 5275m above sea level and was the highest point of my whole journey. Around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I passed the side path leading to Orba Co and started a journey which was complete strange to me. I ate a piece of pilot breads, which was frozen like rocks so that I had to use my spade to crush it. At 6 o'clock in the evening, I had pushed plus rode my bicycle for about 32 km. I reckoned I should have been able to double this if I did no carry such heavy load. The wind became stronger and stronger. I opened the parasail kits and tested it. The result was far beyond what I expected. With the aid of the strong wind I was just like flying over the wilderness. After 8 o'clock in the evening, I started to observe the water Source and to get ready to camp. Map showed there were successive springs along the path and assembled to puddles. But I had overestimated the water source here in this land and in this season there were endless wilderness inside the valley, where I could not see a single drop of water. As it became darker and darker, I felt a little bit nervous which resulted in three spokes of the parasail broken and became a useless rubbish. Anyway, it helped me to move forward 20km more which benefited me a lot later on. When time approached 9.30 pm, it was almost completely dark. I had to lie my bike on the ground and went on to try to find water on the north side of the valley. This was a wide and flat sandy land, where I could not see any ditches there and further was complete darkness. I returned to get my GPS to look up the contours and found the south part of the valley was closer to a hill so I took the way. Finally I found a piece of ice in a ditch. I smashed about 20litre of ice. The ice was quite shallow scattered with sheep poo. On my way back, my eyes were hurt by strong winds, which got me a couple of days to recover. It was nearly 23 o'clock after I set up the tent. It also took about 40 mins to melt the ice. I was so tired and my appetite was completely spoiled. I then had a little bit of milk. I had never expected thing would go like this, it was so distressing. Streams along the path, ice everywhereThe river flew into Matou Hu, in whose north part there was a satellite lake, a wonderful ice-skating court It took 40mins to melt the ice in midnight Day 4 (April 23), 31km, Camping 5028mA cloudy day with gusts. From now and again, hails chased me from behind. Sunny spell. Heavy sandy land made me have to push my bike. At 3pm, I arrived at Luxing Hu, where there was a house made of clay. This was the last permanent building of my journey. Last year, Duola and Liumeng once lived in this house for three days without meeting anybody. It seemed it was the same but the truck parking in front of the house made me worry about. I went to the sheep cote first to check over, where there were only a few lambs following me everywhere I went later on. This made me feel warm in my heart. I observed farther places using my binoculars but could not see any people or sheeps. After making sure there were no people around I opened the locked door using a screwdriver. The living room was very clean. There were two boxes of beverages on the ground and a string of cured lamb legs hanging over in the interior room. A pot of water was on the top of the stove, lukewarm, which indicated the host must be not far away from his home. I filled up my water bag and left the house. I also put the screws back to the door in order not to leave any trace of my visiting. I then took a spanner from the toolbox of the truck, which gave me great help for the rest of the journey.I left the house as quickly as possible. After last year's experience, the nomadic pastoralists were the last people I wanted to meet. A few hundred meters away from the house, the vehicle traces were fading fast. Even downhill, I had to push rather than to ride because of the heavy loose sand. From the route point of view, only after Luxing Hu it was the real unpopulated land. After many days, I thought of the lamb legs from time to time. It was pity that I then had plenty of provisions and the bike was too heavy to carry anything more. Continue to melt the ice under the morning sunshine, all of the sheep poo had been removed carefullyCamping site, the little hill over there was the place where I got the ice last nightThe house by the Luxing Hu, empty, the last permanent building I saw throughout my journeyDay 5 (April 24), 19.8km, Camping 4951mSet off at 10.30 in the morning, the weather was similar to yesterday. Probably this road was the high plain or somewhere the wind passed so that it was so windy. The average wind speed was degree 6 but could reach degree 9 in the blick of an eye. The road was still full of sand and very heavy to walk on it. My eyes became worse under such harsh weather. About three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw something in my right, looked like antenna. I went closer to see what it was and found out it was an iron tower (the triangulation station). In 1970s, a joint team from Chinese three military regiments entered this area doing research. They have left a lot of triangulation stations and benchmarks, which I had the priviledge to see them today.At dusk, I approached to a spring by the Bungdag Co, which flew into the frozon lake. The sand and soil, brought by the strong wind, scattered on the surface of the ice all over the lake. There were so many cracks around the icey surface of the lake. I geussed it must be caused by the springs under the water rather than by melted ice. In the west of the Bungdag Co was the side path leading to Keriya Pass, where a SUV could reach directly. I had looked out any vehicle Tracks but failed. The cloudy sky started to snow. I set up the tent comfortably because I knew that I was safe having such a sweet spring beside me.Triangulation station erected by scientists from the joint research team on Chang Tang of three military regiments in 1971[size=+0]The gap between water and ice in Bungdag Co, I guessed there must be some springs under the lakeThe storm just above the ground, a chaotic darkness[size=+0]Icy Bungdag Co,one of the four biggest lakes in Northern Tibet, wild ducks flying over this vastness and lonenessSnowing at any time, should not happen so frequently like this in this seasonDay 6 (April 25), 4.3km, Camping 5002mWeathering landforms everywhere around this area. Spongy volcanic rocks could be found easily. I pushed my bike turning around a small hill, seeing a big river, the Yinshui He, flowing from Orba Co into Bungdag Co, which I had been to its upstream last year. It was also a passage for animal migration. The downstream of the river was extremely wide and broad. The thickess of the ice layer could reach one meter with the main stem in the middle course of the river, very deep. There were a few springs along the river, sweet and clear.I only went forward a little bit more than 4km but I had walked more than 20km for finding my way. It was not possible to cross the main stem, let alone the north bank of Bungdad Co. What I could only do was to try to find a shallow place to cross. But the southern area was a even larger piece of wetland and forced the road turn towards west. I spent a couple of hours but failed to find a good point to cross the river. In the afternoon, I decided to follow the edge of the wetland. When I reached the hill foot, the wetland finally disappeared. Around this area, there were clearly volcanic feature of terrain and I even found traces of pasturing and cairns made from volcanic rock.Here was the last pasturing trace I found throughout my journey, I guessed it was a summer pasture area. After this, there was no clear sign of human activities in this vast wilderness. I had been looking for my ways until it was dark. I made up my mind where to go TOMOrrow. The terrain here looked like Yardang landforms, as well as volcanic landforms The Yinshui He river from Orba CoSprings scattered all over the river bank, painted green by lovely algaeThe river was very deep. The mixture of green and amber colour showed the sand and mud carried by the melted iceThick layer of ice, sunken surface caused by strong gustsThe south course of the Yinshui He, countless small streams. To the right was the wetlandLooking for ways in the east, a trace of pasturing and the cairn made from spongy volcanic rocksMy camp, opposite to the hillDay 7 (April 26), 11km, Camping 5009mI moved forward to the direction I found yesterday, turning around the wetland and walking toward east. At 2pm, I was blocked by the zigzag Yinshui He again and I had no choice but to cross it. The river was about 700m wide, covered by ice which appeared very different. The hanging ice, the folding ice, the piling-up ice, the icy puddle, and the sleet were everywhere along the river bank. Having noticed all of these, I reckoned the river would be receding at dusk, which was why there were so many different shapes and forms of ice. I put my slipper on, going into the main stream of the river. I found there were at least three different courses of the river, the thickness of the surface ice varied and the river water reached above my knees. I sighed there would be no way back once I crossed this river. There are many ways in one's life too, you can only take it once and you will no long have the courage to repeat it.I pushed the bike crossing the river. Some of the ice was a bit soft, jamming the tyres so that I had to use my feet to break them first. Some of the ice was a bit thick but with half-melted underneath, sticking the the bike completely, some of the ice was half-water half-ice with a sandy riverbed, which was really hard to pass. I had to remove all of the panniers at the last stage of the crossing. I spent the whole four hours to cross the river, my legs got many bloody cuts. At 6pm, the surface ice was almost disappeared completely, the river level rapidly rising to a chaotic status. I thought if I hesitated a little bit at that time, I could not have the courage to cross this river under such circumstances. The river bank was unimaginably sandy and was quite steep. I had to unloaded the panniers again to reach the top of the bank. By the time of sunset, the weather became exceptionally good. The sunlight from the descending sun, the blue sky, the faint moon, .... I liked such a colorful and peaceful Chang Tang and very much enjoyed my camp and myself bathed in such beautiful colour.The ice like this was very thin and suspended, far away from the main stemHard surface with half-melted underneath, the soft sand at the botton was most scaryThe ice like this could easily jam the wheels, hard to get it outI had to unload the panniersChaotic water and terrible hails turned up in no timeThe Chang Tang at the moment liked it used to be,a mixture of cold and warm tones under the golden setting sun Day 8 (April 27), 14.6km, Camping 5112mLast night, I forgot to bring in the odometer, which was out of order due to the coldness in midnight. Since then I used GPS to check the mileage. The digital thermometer was no longer working. I had to use mercury thermometer to collect data. Night temperatures were basically between –15℃—–20℃ while the temperature inside my tent was about –10℃. The advantage of the integrated tent was that it limited the ventilation so to keep warm inside. However, it got clearly disadvantage of heavy condensation and dew. Every morning, there was plenty of frost inside the tent so that I had to put my hood on First Before fully getting dressed. The winds in Chang Tang finally became consistent with the pattern I had researched the other day no or very tiny wind in the morning, strong wind started after 2pm, and then at around 8pm its strength was reduced again. The accuracy of this prediction was about 80%.The road was very bad today. I walked whole afternoon in an ancient riverbed and it was so difficult that I had to use all of my strengths to move a small step forward and then to stop to breath, slower than a snail. After five hours' struggling, my eyes got wet when I saw the grassy river bank. Finally! The nightmare was over.Cold and clear morningHeavy morning condensation in the interior, a lot of frost to clearSuch dawning sunlight indicated a cloudy day ahead Day 9 (April 28), 18km, 5072mIn the morning I entered a range of sandy roads which were so terrible. The solar panel specially designed for GPS got short circuited. After checking it was found to be the diode got damaged. Luckily I got a replacement. Because the GPS was exclusively supplied by a solar panel so that it was no longer a problem for the power supplement of GPS. In a period of 70 days, I did replace the battery once, which saved me a lot of alkaline batteries. I did have another solar panel of 5.4 W which was used specifically for 7.5V Camera, DV and other digital facilities. Unlike water, I had never been short of power.At 7pm in the evening, I arrived at Pur Co. The surface of this lake was very odd the ice by the river bank rose and the river bank was broken, I reckoned that was due to the strong winds. The ice there was mingled with something yellow, could be the stain of alkali. There were many wild yaks on the other side of the lake. There could be two brown bears but I could not be for certain. On the east side of the lake, there was a peninsula leading to the centre of the lake. I camped just opposite to the peninsula. At night , I smashed the ice to get drinking water, which tasted alkali. For the first time I cooked the cereals, which was brought completely by accident. This was just because I found there was a little bit of extra space when I was in Nagri packing the stuff for this journey so that I bought two packs of cereals. It tasted disgusting, probably there was too much alkali in the water. I threw away half of it. Later I realised that probably I subconsciously felt that the provisions was so heavy. I would rather make it lighter at any cost.Dry all my stuff in the morning sun, a routine matterA faint dusk in Pur CoThe river bank pushed up by ice and opened like zipper by gustsThe pushed up surface of the iceThe place where I got my drinking water, a thin layer of ice behind the ablation corns The moment just before sun set, glittering Pur Co, nothing was the same差点儿没找到俺自己的帖子，原来变色了。多谢各位鼓励。 Day 10 (April 29), 16km, Camping 5141mIn the morning, I walked around the north bank of the Pur Co， where it were continuous ups and downs sprinkled with light yellow sprouts across the sparse grassland. The wild yaks clustered into small groups. All of a sudden, there was a group of five of them running towards me, blowing a huge cloud of dust with the power of thunderbolts,I believed that anyone who did not know the characters of the wild yaks must be frightened to death under such circumstances. The fact was the wild yaks in groups never injured people. Rushing to you just to show you its territory. When they approached people at certain distance, they would turn sharply and run away, and then stopped somewhere high to stare at you. You can not imagine that the wild yaks were very cautious animals compared with its almost one ton of weight. Their first reaction, when meeting people, was to raise their tails, the front hooves rubbing against the ground, the horns pointing forward, the eyes redden, and the long body hair shaking, all of which showed their determination to fight.This was the warning sign that you should retreat. However, you should realise that this was only a gesture that they were afraid of you and wanted to scare you away. The thing was that if you were not afraid of them and moved forward, they would run away in no time. There were only some mad yaks attacking people, which was really rare to happen. In Chang Tang, an experienced driver know that it is very dangerous to pass directly from two or three lonely wild yaks. They always tried to avoid confronting them directly. If this was not possible, they would lit a cigarette, smoking, to wait until the yaks walked away themselves. This was because the wild yaks really could attack vehicles, which was not completely rumors. I once asked them why I had not been attacked. They told me that because my bike was so small they would not be bothered to attack it. My own experience was that approaching a wild yak very slowly, do not look into its eyes, and ignored what it was doing. As long as it moved forward a little bit, just stop and give the yaks a little bit of time to think. Because if you forced the yak, it could be themost dangerous animal in the world and nothing could stop them killing. Even a gunshot could not kill it but only left a small hole in its skin. In the past, the nomads living near this land would use yaks' skin as chopping board which was very much endurable. At noon, I lost my balacLAVA, which was brand new and I had never used it once. I could not be bothered to go back tofind it. This resulted in that I had to have my fleece hat day and night in the rest of my journey, which did not provide fully protection from the sun in the plateau. But somehow I was all right, perhaps because my skin is similar to those of yaks, lol. At around half past one, I found a deserted Jeep, upside down. I felt it could be there for years and it could be the vehicle of someillegal HUNTERs. Nowadays, we have wildlife conservation reserves in Chang Tang and the animals here are well protected. However, some people kills the wild yaks to sell them as the domestic yak's meat. In general, it is worth 10,000 Chinese yuans for a single wild yak. Therefore many people take the risk to make money. They often enter the unpopulated areas to hunt and their activities can reach 200 km in diameter. This is why the wild yaks in the deep wilderness are less afraid of people than thoseat the boundaries of the Chang Tang region.There once happened that a wild yak mother revenged its baby's murder in the Altun mountains. Its horns pierced the killer's chest and held his body over its head for more than ten days, which was very touching.Around 3pm, I walked out of the Pur basin. The next point was Hong Shan Daban and then it was the Yueya Hu by the Toze Gangri. At this time I found a vehicle track from south to north. I checked over but could not find the way where they had gone. I took my map, GPS, and compass, climbing up a small hill to estimate the location of Hong Shan Daban. The mountain was very round and it was hard to find the mountain pass. After determining the location of the Daban, I moved straightforward. When I passed a messy grassland, I saw something that I was reluctant to see more than hundreds of wild yaks' head scattered all over, which was definitely the scene of the illegal hunting. After that it was a very long ancient river bed with soft sand slowly rising until the foot of the mountain.There are some spines on the surface of the tongues of wild yaks, which are used by nomads in this area as combs. They use them from their teens to the time when their hair becomes silver.The deserted Jeep, could be left by illegal hunters years agoThe slaughtered wild yaks with the wheel size heads. Some of the skulls were chopped into half. Why was that? Could be taken away for making combs?My camp at the foot of the Daban underthe lingering golden rays of the setting sun. Tomorrow's weather must be wonderful, I reckoned Day 11(April 30)， 20.4km, Camping 5120mThe surface of the road leading to Hong Shan Daban was very hard, most of them were small rocks, sort of gravels, plus a quite long downhill slope, I pushed my bike more than 20km for the first time after Luxing Hu. The mountain pass was quite flat, just like a broad ridge, it was 5256m above the sea level. Upon arriving at the pass, Toze Gangri of 6356m was in my sight clearly, very much round and there was no back bone like normal snow covered mountains. Most of the snow mountains in Chang Tang looked like this probably it was due to the geological movements. There were quite a few chirus or Tibetan antelopes in the valley but I was not interested in this kind of animals anymore after I witnessed a large scale of migration of such animals last year elsewhere.The herbivorous animals here are very quick to reach its original size of the population, such as wild yaks, chirus, Tibetan gazelle, pika, and marmot. When you go into the depths of the Chang Tang, you could hardly be surpised by the sudden appearance of the chirus because they are so common in here. At this time of year, the chirus have already male-female parted. You could see many pregnant female chirus but hardly see any males. According to recent research, Zonag Co is not the only lake for breeding. There are at least four of them in the whole Chang Tang. Zonag Co, Tuzi Hu, Heishi Beihu, and another lake I can not remember. I think there must be more than four of them and most of the populations do not migrant long way like most people used to think. They generally migrant from south to north between Central Mountains and Kunlun Mountains.The chirus looks very timid but are very curious about outside world. They are not really afraid of people, particularly in the depth of the Chang Tang. The nearest distance we can approach is about 30m. They just stare at you calmly and think who you are and why you move so slow. They would run in front of you. Look like they are afraid of you but the fact is they are playing with you. A man's own character shapes his fortune. This is of course suit for animals too. The chirus are the typical one. They have a super speed and a pair of sharp antlers. If they are crazy, three of them work together could easily kill a wolf. But as you might have known, their antlers are just for fighting to mate with females.Down the Daban there was a very steep and straight road, I tried to ride the bicycle but ended up with falling over. The front rack came loose and one of the pannier flew into valley. The foot of the mountain was the Yueya Hu covered by ice, which was alake full of heavy metal elements. Along the lake bank there were many stark rocks very much weathered, lining up just like castles or houses. This made me stop to investigate what they were from time to time, I did understand they were just rocks though but they were so real like the figures of real people. On of them even made me hide in a ditch, observing them again and again using my binoculars. There were also many black volcanic rocks. All in all, the features of this area were really unusual.Passed over the Yueya Hu, it was an endless ancient lake bed. What my GPS showed was this area was a big lake like tentacles. I looked around, it was endless wilderness without a piece of ice and a drop of water. Roughly, I estimated this lake bed was about 1200 square meters. I had to tell you that Chang Tang was a place where there was no high-resolution map. The marks in the map often were some kind of memory. Just like this ancient lake bed under my feet, may be it was full of water a few years ago. Who knows. Pushing the bike in such an endless lake bed was very easy to get lost. My mind was in a chaotic status too.The migration of the animals, photo taken last year The road rising up to the Daban, full of gravels, very hard, ideal for pushing your bikeThe Yueya Hu gazed at by the round and smooth Toze Gangri. At a glimpse, could you tell which was mountain, which was cloud?Ancient lake bed. The white stains were the alkali, look like ice. About wildlife (part 1)Declaration Personal experience for reference onlyDangerous wild animals and their threats to human beings are a ever-LASTING subject for those backpackers travelling in the wild.In Chang Tang, for example, there are two kinds of deadly animals, one is wolves and the other is brawn bears. As substitutes, wild yaks and crows might be dangerous to you in some circumstances that I will come back to this a little bit later on. As for how to protect yourself against these dangerous animals, I think the primary point is you do not try to hurt them because the emotions of human and animals are same instinctively. [Wolves]Throughout my journey, I met wolves a total of seven times, in which I confronted them five times. As you might have known that wolves have become more and more solitary animals, it is very rare they live in a large group nowadays. Please allow me off the point a little bit and talk about the ecological problems in Chang Tang. The problem is now not the decrease of the number of the chirus but the imbalance of the whole food chain, more specifically, the number of the animals on the higher trophic levels of the food chain has not yet reached its ideal level which results in this kind of imbalance. Particularly, the pikas and the marmots who have lost their predators rapidly expanse which results in the desertification of Chang Tang. As early as the middle of last century, wolves were the dominant predators in the vast wilderness. They became a threat not only to other preys but also nomads pasturing in this land. Therefore, the then government called on people to cull back the population of the wolves in Chang Tang, which resulted in the current situation directly. The last official record about wolves attacking humans was around 1970s, which happened in Bamaoqiongzong. A team of secientists was surrounded by a group of wolves and they had to shoot them using guns. Of course, at present in Chang Tang, wolves are absolutely lonely.In this traverse, the first time I encountered a pair of wolves, one of them staying in front of me pretending to attack me while the other staying behind me. This is the standard attacking strategy of wolves. First, you should not be nervous which can be easily detected by the predators. Second, you should not retreat even an inch because this means you are the prey rather than the predator. Do not make any large movement, of course you could take a picture if you feel safe to do so. You must look into its eyes for a few minutes or even half an hour. When the wolves can not work out who you are and consider you are not posing any danger to them, then they will leave. You should remember that wolves in this land do not lack of food and it is much easy for them to catch a pika than a human. Even if being hungry, they would evaluate how easy to get you done, What you need to do is to show them that you are not interested in them and you are not afraid of them at all, let alone to show your ID card to them. As for the wolves family, really, I have not heard for ages. If you really have an encounter with them and they have no other choice, then it definitely depends on your forture. In fact, for so many year, it has been very rare to happen that wolves kill human. But the rumours are still there, in particular, the road connecting Xinjiang and Tibet.The nearest encounter with a wolf throughout my journey, no conflict at all[Brown Bears]Brown bears are real dangerous animals to human. Every year there are some accidents happened in some regions of Xinjiang on the north side of Kunkun Mountains and steppes in Northern Tibet. More than that the bears could attack your house, smash your windows, and eat your sheep. Therefore, in Northern Tibet some local councils give subsidies to the pastorarists for compensating the losses due to the bears because they are not allow to fight back and kill the bears except their lives are in great danger. Once there was a nomad taught me a method to protect yourself from bears. He told me to pick up a stick to feed the bear and the bear thinks the stick is your hand which tastes disgusting. So the bear would leave. It was so funny but the reality is to find a stick in this vast wilderness is just like you win the lottery.Bears are omonivorous animal who are generally not interested in human flesh. You can find that in most of accidents, the bears did not eat any of the human flesh rather they just smashed them for kind of fun that we could not understand. For the reason why bears kill human, one explanation is the conflict between human and wildlife in this extreme ecological environment. The nomads invade the habitats of the bears, which results in these conflicts. On the other hand, it might be because bears have quite high IQ so that they think it is much easy to kill a sheep in the cote rather than to kill a pika in the wild.I have met bears five times in my traverse, in two cases we were very close to each other. I had even walked with one of them for quite a while, just like we had a date for a walk. The fact is it is not that terrible like you might imagine. The same rules for dealing with wolves apply to bears. Never provoke dangerous animals. A bear can run at a speed of 40km/h, do you think you can compete this in a highland 5,000m above sea level?However, there is a situation where it is really dangerous, that is the encounter. It is not easy to control your instinctive reaction to the external dangers. Last year once I turned around a hill, there was a bear just in front of me. The bear of course was frightened by me with its front legs holding up, waving in the air and roaring. At that time I sat on the ground, ignoring it. The bear then left in a few minutes. Chang Tang is a vast land so that this is not that easy to happen. But if it does happen, really only God can bless you.The nearest encounter with a bear throughout my journey. This bear disappeared in a herd of wild yaks, which I had tried hard to spot, really weird About wildlife (part 2)Declaration personal experience for reference only.[Wild Yaks]I have talked about quite a few, like in the post of Day10. I will no longer talk about it.This was the funniest encounter with a solitary wild yak, who did not warn me. If I sat down, it sat down too. If I moved forward, it stopped. Could not imagine what it was thinking about.[Crows]Crows are dangerous only when you fall unconscious in the wilderness. Of course they will be the first to taste your flesh in that case. Unlike their cousinsliving in urban areas, the crows in Chang Tang have a larger body like eagles. When they fly over your head, you could feel like it is a piece of cloud. They are scavengers but like fresh meat too. It once happened that a baby was killed by crows relentlessly, let alone the lambs got killed by them. Once a nomad asked me for fireworks to scare the crows away. (They are sacred birds not to be killed by human)It is easy to defend yourself against crows, that is to keep fighting, never fall in the wilderness.A short break attracted the crows. Of course, they were miscalculating this time, photo taken last year[Strategies Adopted]At the time when I met the four soldiers in Jieshan Daban, they said there were many dangerous animals in the Northern Tibet and asked me if I had brought a shotgun. I think if they knew that I would enter Chang Tang they would definitely check if I really have a shotgun. The so-called defence facilities I brought with me were the fireworks and pepper spray. I had never used them. The fireworks were ruined and thrown away when I crossed a river and I had never opened the pepper spray. I even had never thought about this when camping in the night. The reason was I did not feel the needs. During the day time whenever I met any animals I had never touched the knife I had brought. I did not have anything to defend myself when I walked out to investigate the route. The Chang Tang is really a vast area so as to be very easy to detect anything strange.By the way, you'd better to avoid mating season's animals because even tamed rabbits could be aggressive in mating season.The thing is even if you have a gun, it is not very much helpful when bears attack you. Therefore, your attitude is most important.I can tell you something. Dogs are more dangerous than these wild animals. I had been chased by Tibetan dogs, pounced on by dogs in mating season, also besieged by a group of dogs. I really feel it is more useful to know how to defend a dog.Declaration again The above experience is from Chang Tang only. Of course, the more you prepared, the better. Day 12 (May 1), 23.8km, Camping 5117mToday was May 1 -- the Labour Day, I had been walking in some lake area marked in the map but clearly dried up. The lake basin was flat and hard so that I even pushed my bike more than 20km. Let it be the special treat for my May Day. After midday it became cloudy with growing winds. Since the Yueya Hu that I passed yesterday, there were no big lakes until Yanghu Co (My route would be between Jianshui Hu and Bairab Co), there was even no light alkaline water to drink so I had to pay extra attention not to miss any possible drinking water supply to fill up my water bag. There were a few very small lakes but all were alkaline puddles which was very shallow, whose depth was no more than the length of a half-finger. These puddles were covered with a hard shell of the mixture of salt and ice which smelled stinking and decaying when getting closer, must be toxic water I supposed. On the shore of this type of small lakes it was muddy soil and very hard to get closer.There was no sign of tundra at all.It was almost half past six when I found some snow corns in a ditch, which was the only drinking water supply of the day. There was a thin layer of melted ice on the surface of the ground near the snow corn, which was very hard to collect and was contaminated by the alkali. The snow corn was the yet melted thick snow, which was shaped like a corn by wind. The snow was quite hard and dry,porous like ice. I crushed a few snow corns, putting them into the water bag.They would be my drinking water tonight. These snow corns were the only one in today's wilderness, I reckoned the reason why they were not melted like others was the soil underneath contained large amount of ice blocks which acted as a freezer.Very strong gale in the night, it was hard to bear the sound of the vibration of the tent. Small single tent was good in the sense that it would not be blown away as long as you stayed inside. But you had to be very careful to set up the tent. I once did not pay much attention when doing so, the tent was blown away by winds, and rolling over like a Giant lantern ... I ran after it, got it back, and was exhausted. In general, it is not possible to fix the tent completely using tent pegs because they were not very much effective like large tents. It was snowing around 23 o'clock, the winds were howling from north,then the falling snow flakes landed on my tent quietly, I finally felt at peace and fell asleep. The flat ancient lake basin, assisting me walking more than 20kmSmall lake en route, toxic waterSnow corns, the only drinking water supply today Day 13 (May 2), 0km, Camping 5117mWaking up in the morning and opening the tent, the heavy snow outside must be sent by the God to force me have a break for the May Day. After lying in for a while, getting up and walking on the snowy ground out I went to have a look around. As first sight there were a herd of chirus. They were plainly to be spotted because they looked like a clear black straight line in the while snow. I returned to get my camera and then followed them to take some pictures. But they were very much alert and kept a quite long distance from me. I felt they were a group of pregnant females, instinctively protecting themselves from any potential harm. I was no longer short of water, the snow gave me a precious supply of drinking water. The problem was that they were very petrol consuming. I tool 8.6 litre of petrol and the oil stove was Duola's MSR. The pot was of 1.5 litre, mainly for boiling water. After several days' experiments, I found that the liquid water needed 16mins and 14-15mins to boil in the morning and evening, respectively. For ice, it would take 35-40mins while for snow it took 45-50mins. Melting snow was a very time and petrol consuming process so if I had a choice between snow and light alkaline water, most of time I would go with the latter. Lying inside the tent, listening to musics,I smoked a cigarette while gazing at the more and more chirus around me. Because it was very cold I had been wearing my shoes all the time. Now I just put my bare feet under the warm sun for some fresh air. I found three cuts in my hands and one in my sole. The cuts were about 4cm in length, looked terrible but it was actually all right really. Half of my toes were injured by to much walking, quite painful. I fetched my medicine bag and found I only got four patches of plasters, a serious mistake. One of the cuts in my hand had never been cured until I was out of this desolate land so as to feel like this finger would drop from my hand at any time. The others quickly recovered in a few days then new cuts appeared elsewhere. This process occurred periodically. I felt that it was somewhat related to the cold, dry weather and the lack of vitamins. The snow rapidly disappeared, which is unique phenomenon in Chang Tang. Because of the low air humidity and the high radiation from the sun, the snow was evaporating very fast, much quicker than the melting speed. Owing to this, the ground was generally still dry after the snow disappeared. In most cases, it would be only 2/5 left in the afternoon around 2 to 3 o'clock and small patches of ground could be seen. It would be completely all right for walking the next day. On the third day there could be some snow left in somewhere the sunlight hard to reach. So generally it could give you three days of water supply after a heavy snow like this. One of the pannier was broken, the most expensive one from deuter series, supposed to be waterproof. I will come back to it at some point later. Everything was covered by snow, no way out Lying in the middle of Chang Tang, listening to Tian Zhen's songs, and smoking Baisha cigarettes, what else can you ask for? The pregnant female chirus in migration, probably heading to Heishi Beihu to give birth([]

前提：这是2011年的游记，只是发布的比较晚而已~回答下大家的疑虑有时候会觉得，独自旅行并不是一件看起来那么风光的事。在机场等飞机的时候，在lignon hill呆坐着等火山的时候，孤独的夜晚在legaspi的政府宿舍里看电视的时候，咬着呼吸管睁大眼睛看着紫色珊瑚的时候，子夜拿着手电筒走山路回家的时候，星光下泛舟海面看萤火虫的时候，在饭店里苍蝇围绕哦中洗无穷无尽的盘子的时候，在MRT出站电梯上回头望着汹涌人潮的时候，经常会想到很多东西，关于旅行，承诺，生命，时间，以及所有的一切。我似乎是为了寻找其中存在的某种意义，想要变得更坚强，更隐忍，更闪亮，更勇敢，所以才迷恋一个人的旅行。但是回首时，发现旅行仅仅是旅行本身，意义之类的东西只是转瞬即逝的心灵悸动，我害怕忘记，渴望惊喜，所以，我背上包，第二次探索菲律宾，我钟爱的国度。我希望你不是为图而来，而是用心和我一起体会这段旅行，文字有13000多，如果没有耐心，请不要看了。*沙发couchsurfing指的是“沙发客”，一种通过网络联系当地居民免费获得住宿的办法。D1：我回来了依然是红眼delay航班，依然是怨妇一样的心态，每次旅行的开端心境仿佛都不怎么好，没心情欣赏广州的夜色，翻出《挪威的森林》英文版开始看第十遍。不知不觉睡着了，醒来已经是在马尼拉，打的去了international youth hostel.这里就像是我的家一样，每个服务生我都认识，每个微笑我都熟悉。在凌晨2点冲进门，说出“我回来了，亲爱的们。”的时候，仿佛时光倒流，一切美好的事情还会重演。D2：我的家早上出门的第一个目的地显然是Intramuros，当跪在教堂的椅子上，仰望彩绘玻璃窗的时候，上帝告诉我，尽管过去了3个月的时光，尽管这世界上发生了千千万万的事，马尼拉还是那个马尼拉，Intramuros还是我的Intramuros，youth hostel还是我的家，内心安稳。每次回到马尼拉，最重要的事情非购物莫属，尤其Makati是我最爱，这次刚好赶上FOREVER 21打折，所有女孩像疯了一样在里面抢来抢去。全年都是夏天的国度，毛衣比夏装还便宜，每次都有一种乡下老鼠进城的感觉，眼睛都看不过来的五光十色。逛完大商场就是Baclaran market，因为青旅在附近，Baclaran market成为每天的必经之地。或许你在马尼拉，看过马尼拉湾的落日，去过各大shopping mall血拼，进过Intramuros的每一座古老建筑，但是这还不完全是真实的马尼拉。这座城市有摩天大楼，有古老建筑，更有Baclaran market 污水横流的逼仄街道，在泥水中嬉戏的儿童，推车卖饮品的小贩，鳞次栉比的服装小店，炸鸡的香味，钱币递出的响声，五花八门的Jeepny，街边鲜艳的各种切好的水果……这个世界真实的一面在彼处，也在此处。晚上在青旅和大家聊天拍照，感叹facebook终于可以用了真是太难得了。D3：没有火山青旅的隔音效果很差，晚上常有很吵很吵的摩托车经过，宿舍里住的基本都是菲律宾人，早上6点她们就会起床洗漱，睡得不沉，就会被吵醒。可是很奇迹地，我睡到10点才起。和一个日本哥哥一起拼车打的去机场。每次听到我说出自己的名字Sukey时，他就开心得手舞足蹈.....在机场等去legaspi的飞机的时间里，注意到一个女生，化着很得体漂亮的妆容，穿MUJI的衣服，看的书，文字是竖着写的。她就是我后来搭讪的山田蓝子，日菲混血，少见的英文超好没有口音的日本女孩，在legaspi的私立大学读书，在飞机delay的时间里，我们聊到donsol，聊到异国生活，被她表扬我的日语没有中国口音，非常开心。可惜飞机降落后就再也没有见到她。旅行中有无数的离别，我知道只有相逢的喜悦才能冲淡离别的伤感。这次来菲律宾之前匆匆忙忙在couchsurfing联系到了legaspi和coron的两个host，legaspi的host Pearl Marian 是位非常善良的大学老师，竟然来机场接我，带我去cagsawa church ，可惜天气阴沉，不能看到火山全貌。一路上她对我讲述2009年那一场台风，夺去了许许多多的生命。马荣火山就在那里，有时像守护神一样，惠泽方圆百里的田野，有时又称为猛兽，伤害山脚下的人。pearl带我去pacific mall里吃了晚饭，又叫她的医生朋友Jay帮我联系，让我住在政府宿舍里，RMB28一晚还是有空调有电视的单人房，电视可以收到好多中文频道，异国他乡能听到中文是非常开心的事。晚上下起大雨，pearl介绍我去宿舍附近的Bicol Blends Cafe 吃东西，第一次吃到云呢拿辣味雪糕，非常刺激！雨一直不停，她拿出笔记本电脑上网，我拿出书慢慢看。背景音乐是无穷无尽的爵士乐，我喜欢这种安静美好的氛围。([]

这是一篇迟来的游记了。2010年的秋天，一帮朋友自己组了个团去川西，走的一个小环线。那时候还是个户外菜鸟，装备什么的完全不专业，上牛奶海、五色海累得半死。现在专业多了，体力也好多了，今年已经准备登乞力马扎罗了。川西的美在国内是独一无二的，它跟西藏、新疆略有区别，壮丽中带着秀美，应该是人一生必去的地方。旅途的酸甜苦辣，在这个帖子里慢慢发出来跟大家分享。当时在摄影上也是个菜鸟，刚刚买了个单反，完全属于入门级，只是有一腔对摄影的热情，照片比起很多大师简直就是到此一游的感觉，大家只有凑合着看咯~~~ 马上正式开始游记第一次到川西，出行之前做了不少功课，特别关注亚丁景区的牛奶海和五色海，因为据说海拔高、路况差、风景好，需要徒步5个小时，路程极其艰苦，很少有人能上去，于是跃跃欲试，觉得此行最重要的目的就是挑战牛奶海。冲锋衣、冲锋裤、登山鞋、登山杖、相机（550D+18-200mm，50D+16-35mm）、脚架，欢天喜地的开始了7天艰苦的旅程。最喜欢这张照片，头像就是这张！ D1 成都/雅安/泸定/丹巴宿：丹巴（海拔1800米）成都出发，经雨城雅安，感受雅安三绝——雅雨、雅鱼、雅女，翻越二郎山，穿越目前我国埋藏最深，海拔最高的公路隧道——二郎山隧道（2812M），过泸定，游览泸定铁索桥，至康定瓦斯沟口，经过瓦丹公路前往千碉之都——丹巴，隔大渡河观梭坡藏寨古碉楼。极其无聊的一天，天气阴沉沉，加上超级堵车，除了在车上死睡其他什么也没干，翻过二郎山隧道已经是下午4点过，也没有特别感觉到隧道两头风光的不同。路上车子抛锚，修理半天，到达丹巴已快11点，没有任何高原反应…… D2 丹巴/八美/新都桥/雅江　　宿：雅江（海拔2640米）丹巴出发，前往游览甲居藏寨，参观藏族村寨，经八美，观八美变色石林，经塔公草原，抵达塔公寺，经过摄影天地新都桥，翻越高尔寺山（4412M），抵达藏乡小城雅江。天气依然阴沉沉，一早前往甲居藏寨，所谓中国最美的村庄“之一”。也就是大山上散落着一户户藏居，有多美我觉得真的谈不上，只是觉得这些人要出去一次太困难，这样的生活条件，就算是住在世界上最美的村庄也没有意义。甲居藏寨其间参观了一户藏居，三层，很漂亮的房子三年前的俺，现在已经老得不行了每家每户房顶上都很多玉米，金灿灿的一家藏居门上贴着喜字，两只喜鹊停在房顶上，是喜事招来了喜鹊还是喜鹊带来了喜事甲居藏寨只是一个开始，真正的川西风光这才逐渐到来离开甲居藏寨之后，又是坐在车上翻天覆地的睡，中午在八美的一个草原用餐，吃了160元一斤的高原无鳞鱼，微微有了阳光，心情渐好无鳞鱼火锅，我觉得还不错，就是价格太贵又蹦又跳的，完全没把那儿当高原塔公草原又是一个极其无聊的地方，完全被商业化，要不是一杯纯正的酸奶，这地方真是不值得去川西的手工酸奶，5块一杯，好吃呀，现在都还在怀念第二天晚上住雅江，一个依山傍水的小镇，环境还不错，依旧没有高原反应 D3 雅江/理塘/稻城/日瓦/亚丁　宿：亚丁村（海拔3740米）早雅江出发，进入康巴高原，越剪子湾山（4659M）和卡子拉山（4718M），远观世界第一高城理塘（4010M），过毛垭大草原，后翻越兔儿山，过海子山（海拔5020M），观道路两旁壮观的古冰川遗迹，经小镇桑堆抵达稻城。翻越波瓦山，观高原峡谷、看赤土河风光，观万亩杨树林，经日瓦乡，抵达亚丁村。真正的美景，以及真正与高原的战争都是从今天才开始。这一天翻越3座海拔四千以上的高山，天气依旧不好，但幸运的是下雪了…… 第一座山，小雪高原厕所，设施简陋，价格不菲第二座山，大雪，雾蒙蒙的能见度很低雪厚得已经可以没到脚踝远处一大群牦牛，我顾不上高原不易奔跑，兴冲冲的飞奔而去~ 我妈也深一脚浅一脚尾随我来看牦牛到兔儿山是下午，已经没有雪了，风很大，五根脚指头不死死抓着地好像就要被吹跑因为远处山上有一个像兔耳朵一样的石头，因此此山名为“兔儿山”。很佩服取名字的人。在路途上看到的风景，太美了一路上很多援藏的军车，雄赳赳气昂昂，以非常慢的速度挡住一大堆急得要抓狂的自驾车队前面一个军车翻了，大家都下来救援。总之一路上见到车祸无数，自驾川藏线难度真是不小晚上到达亚丁村，之前听闻亚丁村住宿条件很差，但没想到差到这种程度，十几个人睡一个房间，里面有上下铺，有通铺，各个房间之间用木板相隔，完全不隔音，客厅里烧着炭火，房间里烟雾缭绕，加上高原反应，一行人都几乎一夜未眠。 D4 仙乃日/络绒牛场/亚丁宿：亚丁村（3740米）早起抵达亚丁村，换马上冲古，游览冲古寺。观北峰“仙乃日”——观世音菩萨（6032M），南峰“央迈勇”——文殊菩萨（5958M），东峰“夏郎多吉”——金刚手菩萨（5955M）三座神山，朝拜卓玛拉措——珍珠海（徒步），畅游络绒牛场。去之前看了一些游记，挺唬人的，说得要上牛奶海多么可怕，纵使昨夜未眠，今天我还是坚信自己能走上去。今天本来的行程安排：景区大门——冲古寺（此段骑马）；冲古寺——络绒牛场（此段电瓶车）；络绒牛场——牛奶海、五色海（徒步）但很失策，早上出门晚了，骑马早已排成了长队，没有几个小时排不到，无奈，大家只有徒步往冲古寺走，这段路风景很好，费掉一格体力走走也值得。等候骑马的队伍([]

最近几天在预订下个月去日本的一系列事项，繁复的资料查找，比较机票、酒店性价比，锁定目以及安排预订等等，不由得想起来之前几次的“折腾”。从巴厘岛，到韩国，再到日本，但凡是自由行，必然要经过犹如“产前阵痛”一般的折磨。当一切尘埃落定终于可以松一口气的时候，才是旅途得以享受的开始。今天不说别的，就说说巴厘岛十日自由行的准备。去年11月中旬出发，Maple9月初就开始着手进行准备。本来想等10月份携程自由行价格出来，但考虑到自己预订自由性更大，且可以选择最优解决方案，因此Maple再一次秀逗，毅然决然担当起8人出行巴厘岛10日自由行的全部安排工作。第一步：确定出行时间，预订机票。机票无疑是自由行总预算中占比最大的，因此一定早下手抢特价票。9月初开始看机票价格，各大航空都是往返含税7000多。熬到9月中，新航突然出现了特价，这无疑是一个可以出手购票的信号。在这里还有一个小窍门。我们都知道ctrip或者去哪儿这样的机票查询平台，其实从平台查个大概后，国际航班还是建议直接去各航空公司的网站上查询价格，往往，官网上的价格会更加优惠，也更及时。枫叶邀请您泰国普吉岛自由行（风景&;人妖&美食&买物大赏）独家攻略！更新结束！https//bbs.8264.com/forum-viewthread-tid-1285729-highlight.html巴厘岛位于南纬八度，想从北京过去，必定要中转一次。可以选择的方案有：新加坡航空，中转新加坡；马来西亚鹰航，中转吉隆坡；大韩航空，中转首尔；国泰航空，中转香港；泰国航空，中转曼谷；印尼航空，中转雅加达。综合考虑各航空后，发现新航的航班最多；提前2个多月预订往返含税机票价是5308元，很是优惠；并且新航中转新加坡，总计飞行时间也是偏短的。而且还考虑到在新加坡中转，可以顺便游览这个亚洲有名的花园城市，实在是一举夺得。经过一系列的抉择，所以将目锁定在了新航往返巴厘岛上。第二步，机票预订。决定了航空公司，这只是机票预订的第一步。新航的航班非常多，每天从北京巴厘岛中转的航班有不下10个时间可以选择。期间的差别就是有的停留时间短，有的停留时间长。中转时间短的，在新加坡只会停留1个半小时；中转时间长的，可以停留25个小时。因此决定具体飞行时间，满足新加坡一日游的安排，是第二步要考虑的。考虑到旅行前期精力充沛，旅行结束回家心切，因此Maple安排了11月11日下午出发，晚上抵达新加坡；11月12日下午1845航班到巴厘岛。促使Maple做了这样的决定，也是因为Maple在新航的网站上看到了这样一项服务：第三步，预定好往返机票，下一步就是预订在新加坡的酒店了。新航不愧是以服务著称的航空公司，果然想得相当周到。Maple和X君看到Singapore stopover holiday，当时就决定采用这个服务来完成我们的新加坡一日之旅。1. 新加坡过境随意行（酒店住宿+接送服务+景点游览）包括相应等级酒店一夜住宿在您留宿的SSH酒店，享受餐饮店单点菜单50%的折扣机场与酒店间往返巴士接送（ seat-in-coach）免费乘坐新航随意行巴士（SIA Hop-on Bus）享用亚坤咖啡厅（Ya Kun）的咖啡/茶和吐司免费参观圣淘沙度假屋、国家胡姬花园、新加坡游河观光、裕廊飞禽公园、新加坡动物园、牛车水原貌馆、位于福康宁的碉堡及滨海湾高尔夫球练习场。 2. 新加坡过境随意行（酒店住宿+接送服务）包括相应等级酒店一夜住宿机场与酒店间往返巴士接送这两个服务选择，每人仅仅差别6美金，但多了6美金，就可以多享受随意行巴士和免费早餐，因此Maple为整个Team选择了（酒店+接送+旅游景点）的SSH服务。第四步：预订SSH购买了新航或胜安航空的机票，才可以继续购买SSH。而且目前新加坡过境随意行无法通过泰国、中国、日本和阿拉伯联合大公国的网站购买。这的确难坏了Maple。Maple尝试了从新航的新加坡网址购买，不行；试图查找新航网站上负责SSH的得运旅行社(Tradewinds Tours & Travel) 的联络方式，不行；给新航北京办事处打电话，不行。最后逼得没办法只能给新航新加坡办事处打电话，然后得到了得运旅社的电话，然后电话+邮件预订，才搞定了一切。预订SSH时候，需要提供机票的预订编号（booking reference），而非其他“number”。还记得当时打电话到新加坡，一切都是英文回复，当对方要我的booking reference时候，Maple实在没有反应过来，搞得对方大姐很是郁闷，几次都要挂断电话。当时Maple真是Hold住场面要对方耐心等我一遍遍check。最后的预订成功，绝对是付出了很大的努力的说。尤其当时还在预订12月3人首尔自由行的客栈，一切麻烦事如同毛线球一样择不开，还好结果是好的。现在想起来那是后还真是悲催。不过，没有事前的努力，怎可能获得后期的完美旅行呢。大家要注意了，这个是预订SSH的邮件地址：tradewinds_ssh@singaporeair.com.sg电话是+65 6506 7797(新加坡的电话号码)预订邮件参考写法：Hello i want to book SSH Mybooking referenceJNWSCD i want to book the hotelHotel Royal for 7 people. i need 4 rooms i stay in singapore on Fri, 11 NOV 2011 thank u very much预订后，会很快收到对方回复，按照要求一步步署信用卡授权书，用国际信用卡付款，最后大功告成。抵达新加坡樟宜机场时，无论T2还是T3，出关后在麦当劳旁边都可以找到新加坡过境随意行柜台。拿着最后邮件过来的收据，就可以享受一系列预定好的服务啦。辛苦辛苦~~不辛苦不辛苦~~一大叠门票、早餐券、接送机的车票券，用的时候撕下来就好。每人发一个徽章，这个徽章会在全程乘坐随意行巴士时候当做车票使用。狮城新加坡-亚坤咖椰烤面包从寒冷的北京出发，深夜抵达美丽的花园城市。一接触到雨后泥土的芳香，因为夜色无法看清的街景却可以完整的浮现于脑海。想象着第二天美丽的热带风情和繁华的国际化都市，一夜好眠。在新加坡的第一餐，是SSH安排的亚坤。之前没有了解，事后才发现，原来亚坤在新加坡是如此深入人心。一早在酒店问好地址，从下榻的Hotel Royal门口乘坐公车4站，到Far East Plaza站，每人票价1.8新币。下车后回走5分钟，在Far East Plaza的地下一层，就是Ya Kun Kaya Toast。新加坡人英语很好，问路一点都不成问，而且问的人都知道亚坤的位置，Maple那时候心里就觉得，这地儿挺神！话说这烤土司，外层香脆，里面夹了咖椰酱和牛油，很是香甜。当地食客还会点一碟洒上黑酱油及胡椒粉的半生熟蛋，配着咖椰烤面包一起儿吃。据说专属的Kaya秘方，制作方式自其1944年创始以来就不曾改变。Kaya Toast with Butter 2新币，2片Kaya Peanut Toast 2新币，2片Crackers with Kaya 1.6新币，2套咖啡/茶 1.5新币咖椰（Kaya）酱小资料：咖椰酱是由鸡蛋，糖，椰浆，香兰叶调配而已，是完全的本地风味。咖椰酱分别有绿色和蛋黄色。亚坤店铺里有卖瓶装的Kaya酱，小后悔没有带点回来。除了乌节路这家亚坤，在后面去的摩天轮下面也有一家。个人认为，无论新加坡还是马来餐，口味偏甜，这可以体现在他们的咖啡、奶茶以及面食各个方面。同团的boss吃不惯甜味的早餐，因此自己到隔壁买了一份更加传统的面食。都知道新加坡物价贵，超市里一罐可乐就要3新币左右，但是还别说，这样一套面食+一罐可乐只要3马币，可谓便宜哉。 Far East Plaza下面的小食店，早晨10点不到，路面还没有很多人，但这里人气很兴旺。([]
