From heaven over (5)--chaos

Time: 2004-09-27 Yin

Route: camphor--Kathmandu (fare 700 rupees = 78 Yuan)

Accommodation: Thamel 150 rupees (about 16 Yuan)

In the morning, the Sun is still in the dark, hidden, you can hear the loud noise, out of the hostel but found the street is very quiet, whose car had last night and haven't much car, we could go to strange began back compensation up last night to reach the dark meet Visual, want to take a look at how can not only be heard it went missing from the waterfall, but the intake lens only see an unusually small town, there are hundreds of buildings in the complex and confused a turquoise Green Mountain au, edge with fast running straight away, I have been to Tibet where not much, but I think here is probably the most unlike Tibet's town, similar scenery is in our hand, Fujian can several years out.

Hostel door asked us to Exchange rupees, the price is 1: 9.2 is $ 1 USD to $ 9.2 can change, although the last night of RS. has asked the Guest House is almost of the price, but we also unrealized hopes to be able to change to on the Customs better price, but they let us very disappointed, by the sending side price only 1: 9, want to go back to find 9.2 found carrying such a heavy luggage back more than 10 minutes of walking mountain road is a not-so-comfortable, bite, press 9.

I heard that there is no currency low RS because counterfeit and no counterfeit money I believe, because later to Nepal pay when seen, people will like our Chinese money as they left at right, a basic look at the face value of the right only to the OK, but the reason is because the dollar low I do not believe that take today's exchange rate, the Nicaraguan maximum of $ 1000 par value RS. corresponds to 111.11 RMB, so I want to do is because the country's political instability, currency is also much more firm of RMB?! said so much nonsense that say useful things: we have added later to found at the border for coins are also a wealth of, because all of the exchange rate is about 8.3: 1, i.e. If you change rupees at the border to Canada are back again, with a piece of money can, if on 0.108 element is 10 million can $ with 1.08, Oh, you want with the money can not miss, of course, must pay attention to safety Yo!!!

Clearance when the others will soon PASS, only my documents are armed police GG tossed "appreciation", depressed in the thought that he looks like a bad man, later he switched to a think it might be because the passport and write I'm from Fujian province in China's Fujian stowaways is famous for many, it seems particularly difficult to Fujian province of passports, but also good attendance visa with a work permit, I and we are making very nice for a work permit, this will give the judgment and the armed police GG a little role, read work permit immediately seal let me PASS.

Out of the customs, just toying to pass this 8 km Switchback ride the hiking or just having a car from soliciting, missing persons, the ruin of the price of RS. 700-killing, it is not expensive, because several other cars, Chinese fare is Rs. 1000, strange they found our prices cheaper than them and they don't care about, it makes me on people's character is the first step.

Car at highway circling down the road really bad, congratulated himself prefers down, then heard a walk down Uncle said he was pigra with kissing and deep-set tumble experience, more is to identify their own wise decision-making.

Car to the gate, finally found woke up to hear the noise sources, although only about nine, gates was full of people and cars, all of a sudden cries, whistles, hupenghuan friends sound, sound, there are bargain Valley water roar hybrid synthesis flashes of complicated Sonic up blood, and this is probably why we previously only heard nothing from the King of the years.

For this trip I took Guangdong Tourism press 01 published backpack travel the world of Myanmar, Nepal (author Zhang fen Springs), the book on the State of things difficult for customs officials and greedy description with, so when I go back to our line of armed police standing guard at the final solemn silence into Nicaragua Customs after a little nervous and found abnormal procedures is basically easy easy to fill in the table to Customs officers cover a chapter did, then in the Nicaraguan experience prove that many of the book describe are already FLOSS, probably because of China's increasingly powerful, now in Nepal to Chinese people is very friendly and understanding of China and adore affection than we imagined, even the book mentioned bokhara PEWA Lake's "the story of the Orchid Hotel" is a non-a, these tables for the press.

Out of the Nicaraguan Customs first impression is that this is the turbulence in the country, there are bunkers and Dutch soldiers, ammunition to Kathmandu 114 km we travel a total experience of six outposts of checks, the Nicaraguan checkpoints set is at both ends as soon as a quarantine area in the Middle, there is a car came to a stop check bayonet first, then, the people have to get off, walk through dozens of meters in the quarantine area, through the other side of the bayonet, which can be checked on the bus we are foreigners have privileges to puff to ride through the quarantine area, can feel as Chinese pride, fantastic! (hopefully after this feeling in the world can feel, Amen!), check, although it is an expression of the soldiers are very serious, and they have a few will be able to see their smiling faces as brilliant, sometimes I will pass on some chocolate, they embraced, and is more exchanges and pleasantries, content is nothing I say Nicaraguan landscape pretty (but haven't started to feel like, Oh, to steal a specially), he said we Chinese good, courtesy, but in two countries of a deep friendship is such a built in polite? write this article when I heard that King Gyanendra took office in Nigeria cancelled the Dalai Lama to China flirting is the message to me on the country's good impression plus a few, go through this time after I go back to Nepal to my many friends publicity in Nicaragua is a cheap good place for beauty, one that perhaps binocular light this year I will go to

And, of course, this is the team leader, bring a heap or a true or false by Alice xinxin so.

Car customs 30 km, stopping at the first town of a small lunch, the stunning beauty of the boss's daughter, is pleased to forward.

Nicaraguan mm and India is a type that most eyeballs is deep, the eyes are large and all, the nose is set aside, if coupled with a good face and body shape, are the main people drooling! so here's to ten more days, I shed my life the most number of mouth, in addition to a small part because food, made for this, HIAHIA! lunch we point out the most classic of his fingers, only 30 rupees, cheap, just the taste of curry burst point, after the counter on the boss's daughter from a Valley to pick out a few slices of shell a fingernail-sized chips let me put in the mouth and pointing a genius to know is to eat curry after bad breath of wood perfume, I bit half day what the taste never chew out, also secretly reform teeth, I got a chance to throw up, be regarded as worthy of a well-intentioned MM.

After dinner, then their way out of the village was stopped down, said to be in front of the mines, PASS the no, probably only in the town for the night, not frighten me!?!, although childhood growing up in the army, and later participated in military training, weapons and ammunition have seen a lot, but it can be your own person, like this are classified into the arms of an adverse party or first! because we in the Nicaraguan plan row is quite full, delayed a day will affect the future of travel, so I took out the bag hasn't finished stationery to find a goodwill around the children and then asked their parents have no other strokes and let us in the past, even if it is to walk through this paragraph then (one way), but unfortunately the answer is NO for me, but also I said if I walk past, mountain guerrillas are Shot You! depressed! finally has a strong men that can protect me in the past, but offer 600 dollars so here there are "black", and "black" on hearing a carriage return. doing business in China that had experienced such a thing, people are afraid not to let go, but a companion of Japan Japanese probably worked as soldiers, bold looks to so-called mine pit move away the stone, found it was a stone, a false alarm.

Say I have to go find what exactly an irresistible impulse, cannot be lost to Japan Japanese?!, but drivers should live or die, I said that Government forces will soon, plus a bit of a guilty conscience, really, not afraid of the mines, but afraid of Shot, although aware of the Maoist guerrilla is here, Maoist, what to say and I am the same belief, but from the mountains to see what I can tell from the Communist Party's identity, maybe as reactionaries, a gun out and I maybe, so I had to climb slopes donkey, wait for government relief. After a few hours, I was surprised how Government forces shadows came up, and notice that you can, ask around, say don't know why, it's strange, do a guerrilla jokes?!, but although lutong, but several hours on either side of plugging a hundred cars, to go through the really is not easy, but fortunately there are several foreigners voluntary early when the traffic, and people seemed too, listen to foreigners, honestly listen command, and spent an hour our car was made possible through continued Benz in Nicaragua is small but fairly flat road.

When it finds a roadside start more house painter with ads, the driver told Kathmandu is up, and I walked most of the cities, in fact, be a larger villages, or even entire Kathmandu to my feeling is also a large rural areas, however this is not to belittle her, but she can put all the historical Internet Internet to keep the thousands of years of posthumous, how can China which city can make so many monuments, complexity of Totem and accumulation of practices on the Internet for so long? Beijing? too many high-rise buildings as early as the courtyard was nowhere to escape a squeeze! Xi'an? in addition to a few old Chan brick tile more terracotta-what is commendable? the moods of the six dynasties in Nanjing? is immersed into the early stink of qinhuai River! but in Kathmandu everywhere can see zhu zhu godly line of Korean Buddhist monks, gold structure Tan fence of ancient buildings, smoked hand wipe old statue, even here the MOO Moo cow God sound seemed full of "Millennium a sigh," taste!

To be honest, just go and feel like in a war-chief attractions, city rampage, armored vehicles of the commanding heights covered with black machine gun, soldiers like like casually turned to pigra with which one can encounter the street, it is said that because of the Communist Party of Nepal in the newspaper announced the next day strike, not be thankful we arrived today, tomorrow, not even to add all of the cars were stopped the car driving? "when up to foreign tourists gather Thamel district, only slightly better feel the atmosphere, although here the street also has military police, but at least it won't be so sword daggers, shop and narrow streets still is bustling, head of the banner is full a welcoming world tourist slogans, these days just before tourism Festival, not only the various commemorative activities, evening food also play half fold, Oh, it's more clever than comes early!

In the Thamel district to find a place to live is easy, even if the closed eyes go to hit several, we are in a noisy in the small quiet Hotel settled luggage, started looking for travel on the back of the trip, in Nicaragua to Chitwan (Chitwan), rafting and the original forest'd travel arrangements to Pokhara (l), you can help themselves.

In the Thamel district to find a travel agency and as easy to find the hotel, and they are very reliable and absolutely no domestic travel zaike phenomenon because the Nicaraguan people working in tourism can have qualification certificates, if the practitioner is a complaint, whether right or wrong (their logic is even token in your side, but you can't and complainants have effective communication, it is your fault), life-long cancel it in a qualification, apart from tourism, almost no other industry countries is how strict prohibitions, so here just a travel service as long as you talk about the good price and service, can be assured that ventured to fully enjoy! as we advance in the Internet and see a lot of information, know the rafting and ChiTwan two nights package lowest approximately 55 dollars, looking for a long time and finally in the busiest streets of underground half storey Natureland Trekking&Expedition (P) LTD. travel service (Tel: 0977-1-4258021, www.natureland.com.np) comes to the price, signed contracts, dear bald Manager MR.Jeet Licusu very politely and we shook hands and keep instructions if there is not necessarily to come back and they reflect, and others said that they will properly resolve, probably afraid of our complaints, huh, huh, good service, of course, there is only a beginning.

However you may also find travel agencies don't think it all, because if the services are not satisfied with the complaints, but if you can because after that the contract price is too high could only eat yabakui, so this is going to test your bargaining level, since in the Nicaraguan you can rest assured a counter-offer, absolutely no one dare you turn (in Nicaragua, with the exception of Tibetans in China), and many-to-say No or Sorry.

So all the work is to be done before the contract, when you offer good conditions are written into the contract, a check will be assured to enjoy after! (later we had encountered a Japan Japanese spent 200 dollars like enjoy and our services, but they are good, know the mentality you smirk, as after that happiness is good and worth learning. ）

At the time of the negotiations and travel agents from time to time be attracted by the sound of music in the street, I saw all kinds of costumes with various musical instruments chuidan parade in the streets don't stop shuttle, vying for many musical instruments, bucket yin is the first time I saw, but they have no way of distinguishing the listening to the sound, because the variety of sound mixed noises, wrong, and interception of butter and stir in the scene, mixed into a large and complicated impressed again heap into my mind, I'm all over this country are piling up into a sense of the word--about--random!
