... qu'on avait deja magasiner des
temples bouddhistes avec le temple de Lamas a Beijing et la Pagode de
l'Oie Sauvage a Xi'an, on voulait faire un peut de diversiter, et aller
voir des temples d'autres religions
impies qui n'ont toujours pas accepter le Christ comme le seul et
unique Fils de Dieu, qui est mort pour nos peches et ressucita trois
jours plus tard. Ou en plus simple avec l'acronyme I.Q.N.T.P.A.L.C.C.L.S.E.U.F.D.D.Q.E.M.P .N.P.E.R.T.J.P.T ...
... bunch of puddles. We ordered some stuff to make PB and J’s to go just in case we got hungry on the train to Chongqing. Since it was pouring when we left we couldn’t get a taxi outside of the hostel, so we decided to walk a short distance to the bus station. Mom fought hard for a taxi- it was quite impressive! It was fun to see her get a little aggressive mixed with some frustration.
Definitely one of our favorite places on the trip!
... Fortunately most of us are able to sit one to a seat, which helps. I was really excited to get to see the rest of town and the countryside, but it was really hard to stay awake. It was also really hard to fall asleep, because the bus driver would honk every time he came up beside another large vehicle, I guess to warn them that we were there. What I did notice is that there are an amazingly huge number of apartment complexes here. Near us they are all fairly ...
Chengdu, Sichuan, China aenthul... food from their on campus mart. I didn't really know what everything was so I tried a little of everything. We went to the gym, where there was a concert put on by students. We looked where the weight room was, and they have a whole room just for "table tennis" aka ping pong! We also noticed throughout the campus they have several basketball courts, a soccer field and a track. There are also a bunch of mosquitoes here... Lastly, we went to the east ...
Chengdu, Sichuan, China jessica.feller... architectures from the temples and local villages are very impressive - they are very old and has lots of character to it. There is a museum too which displays all sorts of ancient artifacts dugg up from nearby. It is very interesting as it gives us an idea of how people live thousands of years ago. I like the place - it is a very tranquil place and has amazing architecture. Now I'm contemplating ...
Chengdu, Sichuan, China loozh703... FINE!! lol Anyway so I got my first experience riding a bike through the streets of Chengdu. That was... interesting. I thought I had it all with the taxis and the busses. But biking is just wow. But it's awesome how fast you get places though. Finally I got an email from Aunt Jean asking about cats, so i decided to talk about the animals. There are "wild" dogs all over the streets. I see like at least 4 a day. I don't know if they belong to anyone or not but they ...
Chengdu, China bambbles... purpose like the real Great Wall did, it was just built as a tourist site. We thought that we would go to the top of this first set of steps and look around and that would be it, come back down and continue on with our day. When we got to the top our guide pointed to a building way off in the distance and said that is where we are going. I interpreted this for Liz and she said "NO WAY, why would we do that?" But next thing you ...
Chengdu, Sichuan, China tomlacey... shelves stocked. I found a shelf full of Pabst Blue Ribbon, and I got so excited that I bought all the bottles they had. As I filled my shopping basket, I informed Yvonne that PBR actually stands for "Preferred Beer of Richmond." "Why, because it tastes good?" Well, not exactly, but it must be something like that. May 14th The weather is much nicer today. Word has spread that the round of earthquakes is over, but there are still people waiting outside ...
Chengdu, China throwerw... zu nah kommen... Am naechsten Tag ging es dann zum Gipfel (3077m) und anschlieszend zu einem andern Kloster. Dabei musste ich eine Abzweigung nehmen. Direkt nach der Abzweigung ging es erstmal 1,5 Std auf Treppenstufen bergab. Dann ging es wieder bergauf. Und das war das anstrengenste, das ich jemals gemacht habe! Ich haette fast gekotzt vor Anstrengung: Dort lag der Schnee bis zur Huefte. Musste mich also mehrere Kilometer drch huefthohen Schnee quaelen ...
Chengdu, China benniunterwegs... leshan is home to the world's largest buddha...and not surprisingly it's very big. it's also home to the world's longest buddha related line...everyone (about 95% chinese tourists) waiting at least an hour to shuffle down the cliff-side to go from the head to the feet. did i mention that the buddha is massive...70+ metres high. i would love to have been part of the conversation where the details of the impending buddha carving were being discussed. i imagine there would ...
