10/30 麗江－東巴古樂

昨天到麗江時已經晚了，隨便的住進旅遊書推薦的背包客天堂 - Dongba House，五塊錢美金一晚，爛的可以了！第二天游走了幾個民居，在半山腰的獅子城住了下來，推開窗能看見大研古城，有熱水，乾淨的被，好心的楊大姐，十塊錢美金一晚，講價到八塊，夫復合求。下午安排虎跳峽徒步，找路線圖，買食糧，安排車票，喝咖啡，晒太陽，聽東巴古樂，早早睡覺，明天爬山去。

10/29 都江堰

都江堰的水利工程實在了不得！西元兩百年前的工程，把岷江水一分為二，三個工程體，“魚嘴”分水提，“飛沙堰”溢洪道，“寶瓶口”引水口。李冰父子是小米最新偶像ㄡ！

10/28 成都好勒

對成都的印象好勒！小吃，三輪車，麻辣鍋，帥哥美女，茶館，入耳的川話，比起北京上海，小米獨鍾成都。下午到了成都，看見成群放學的小學生買小吃，我們也跟著起鬨，吃辣涼面，吃肉串，喝奶茶，過癮！之後，還是忍不住，到皇城老媽吃了麻辣鍋，best 麻辣鍋 ever!

10/27 黃龍

在黃龍又走了八公里的路，下著雪，高山氣候，海拔三千多，走兩步就開始喘，買了兩罐氧氣桶，吸口氣似乎好些，不知是心裡作用還是啥！？黃龍山上的塊塊彩池，映著雪山，有一點超現實的感覺。

小記：從九寨到黃龍的路上，包了一台車，羌族的鄧先生，很有生意頭腦，一路上說兩岸，說他會唱歌的老婆，他倆離鄉背井的情況，說他老婆去香港血拼，嘻嘻哈哈的，下黃龍之後，請鄧先生吃了晚飯，四菜一湯，二十美元有找。如果有朋友去九寨可找鄧先生訂房，接車。

10/26 九寨溝

為了避開人群，早上大小米在九寨逆向行駛，
從盆景灘，到蘆葦海，臥龍海，樹正海，老虎海，犀牛海，諾日朗，
一路步行，走了１５公里，九寨溝的蘆葦海是美！
下午吃了晚飯，也想用同一招逛日則溝，沒輒勒，人多的實在有點少興。

10/25 連爺爺, 您又來啦

九寨溝的第一天, 大小米飽足一餐後, 在旅館大廳碰上了連戰和方瑀, 小米大聲的說 "連爺爺, 您回來啦!", 後來有人複和著說 "連爺爺, 您又回來啦!". 引起一陣的共鳴和笑聲, 趣事一件.

九寨溝的美是沒話說.

10/24 天府之國

今天到了天府之國 - 四川成都. 第一站是杜甫草堂, 優靜, 簡普, 一片片的竹海, 有別於之前江南的小橋流水人家. 在杜甫草堂, 大小米不自覺的想到 Chien Chien, 如果大哥在這裡, 想必是詩興大發.

After that, we had a heavenly dinner at 龍炒手, 10 different kinds of 成都小吃 for less then $2 USD. The food is great, very "ma", not so "la. The way "Ma La" dish is supposed to be.

After dinner we went to see Sichuan opera "Changing face". Performance is great, audience sucks. Mostly tourist group from HK and TW, no one claps for some strange reason. Ricaman and Leigo clap like crazy for the rest of the audience.

The "Ma La Tang" here smells good, we did not get to eat any, too full. It's about 1 US Cent per stick!

Going to Jiou Zhai tomorrow.

BTW, a note to Chien Chien, the girls in Si Chuan are super pretty. You got to come here!

10/23 Du Zha Ha

在上海的最後一夜，
大小米很有口福的吃了大閘蟹，
秋高氣爽，正是吃蟹的好季節。
大閘蟹的肉普普，但蟹黃真是美味。
明天要西征內陸，
兩星期內大概不會有網路。
祝福我們吧！

10/22 Mayday

期待已久，大小米終於在上海盼到了五月天！滿場的 diehard fans，三小時不停的唱，喊，跳，搖頭，擺手，哭，瘋狂到極點！很驚訝的是，五月天唱了很多台語，而且大家都會唱。在虹口足球場，八萬個上海朋友，用台語齊唱“ㄍㄧㄡ ㄨㄚ 第一名“的同時，感覺中國已經被統一了…… Wuhahahaha! 中華民國萬歲！

10/21 同里

在同里還逛了幾個江南庭園，退思園算是名氣大的，但遊客太多，雅氣全無。之後逛了珍珠塔，名氣小人少，到有幾分韻味。小米還買了兩個紫沙壺，茶罐，茶盤，爽ㄚ！從蘇州回上海時，火車票“緊張“，大小米做了硬鋪，體驗了人生百態，真正的中國。

10/20 同里

在建築師安姐姐強力推薦下，大米和小米去了一趟同里水鄉，住在一家叫正福草堂的民居，很像古代小說中的客棧，可惜大小米輕功還沒練成（目前輕功程度還停留在離地三公分），這樣的情景倒是很適合飛簷走壁。言歸正傳，整體來說，同里規劃的很好，有一點商業化，但還不至於太俗氣。晚上，大小米在河邊民居小攤吃了一條太湖白魚，和小貓玩，之後用三塊人民幣跟山東大叔買了一根甘蔗，邊走邊啃，痞子逛大街，

10/19 幹活

今天幹了些活，到 Bovis 上海分公司拜碼頭。
也去看了一間建材工廠，對工廠的規模印像深刻。
看樣子，小米單飛，是八字有ㄧ撇。

10/18 莫干山路、滄浪亭、孫中山故居、馬勒別墅

We discovered a really cool place in Shanghai - Muoganshan Road. It's very much like SOHO in its old days. Lots of cool artists and galleries in LOFT space. I think it's a good investment to buy real estate around that area. Up and coming for sure. Besides from that, we also went to see Dr. Sun's old house in the French Concession. Love those old mansions there. Really wish we can buy one and renovate it. Leigo, the real estate tycoon at work, once again.

Then we went to Moller Villa to have a great sip of afternoon tea.

For dinner, we got to enjoy another round of Shanghai home-style cook out. And went to the facility downstairs for KTV. The facility is awesome with top notch design. Very cool.

10/17 新天地, 城隍廟, 春餐廳

In the morning, 四嬸和大姑丈 went to a nearby market to buy 薺菜包子，糯米蓮藕，and soy milk, what a great breakfast! Later that day, we went to 新天地, a bit commercial, but no doubt a space with top notch design. Then we went to 城隍廟 to look around and ate at 綠波廊，we enjoyed their miniature dumplings and many other desserts. After lunch, we headed to Shanghai Museum at People's Square, and then the Bond. At NY Time's recommendation, we went to a home style restaurant with three tables 春餐廳，probably our greatest meal so far: 大甲蟹年糕, 醬鴨，油爆沙蝦，雪豆苗，等等等，好吃極了！大姑今天出院，家裡一下變得熱鬧好多！

10/16 老房子, 埔東醜珠

We got a cell phone: +86 1316 282 1409. Had a great kick-off in Shanghai. With lots and lots of relatives here, it really makes Shanghai feel like home. Ate extremly well in the past two day. Guess what?! We can't see our own blogs, the website is blocked by the Chinese goverment! 沒天理ㄚ！ But we can post and read your comment via email though......

早上在〝王家沙“吃了生煎包，紅豆湯圓，玆米糕，薺菜餛飩，之後看了宋美齡，白崇禧，杜月笙的老房子,還很驢的帶著奶奶爬上埔東醜醜的珠,等了幾乎兩個小時的隊，真不值得。早知道到經貿大樓喝咖啡，高貴不貴，又不用等，可惜大姑丈放馬後砲，當天晚上才告訴我們。不過珠珠樓下的上海歷史館挺有看頭的。晚上到〝毛豆阿姨“吃本幫菜，小米累到不行，頭痛，嘔吐，又自導自演了一齣小強歷險記，I didn't get to eat anything that night, but Jimmy, 四嬸，奶奶，really enjoyed tha dinner, for detail see Jimmy's blog.

T minus 1 day

One more day of work, and we are off on our long journey to China.
Haven't packed yet, haven't mail the package to Adi, haven't gone to
the bank for Dad, and haven't tie lots of loose ends.......Aiyaya!
Tomorrow will be a hectic day. Anyway, we are very excited. The
flight is around 10PM. The next post will probably be from Shanghai.

PS: Thanks Eueu and Agenila for taking care of our plants.

倒數計時

再過十天就要遠行了！
今天從工地回家的路上，聽著五月天，
天還亮著，打棒球的，接小孩的，趕路的，遛狗的，騎腳踏車的，
討錢的，賣藝的，黑的，白的，黃的，不黑不白的，
紐約的一切顯得特別的理所當然，自在，
突然覺得一陣......捨不得。
