Last time, we couldn’t find Auroville, but we made it today!! (see Feb 5th’s blog.) The Japanese motorbike girl really enjoyed riding a bicycle rather than her motorcycle because she could see the view in much more detail at the slower pace. When she rides her motorbike, the view passes by very quickly. Of course, we enjoyed cycling, too. (Thank you, Chris!) Auroville was kind of a nice town, I think. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get in the “Matrimandir”. wanted see “probably the most biggest crystal in the world”. :-P On the way back, we went to the beach and swam in the ocean!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日は自転車でオーロビル行きに再挑戦！（２月５日のブログ参照）&lt;br /&gt;前回は結局オーロビルを見付けれなかった・・・ でも今回は大丈夫！ビーチに行った時に、オーロビルの看板見付けたから！&lt;br /&gt;日本人バイカーは自転車に乗ることがすごく久し振りみたいで、すごく喜んでた。 &lt;br /&gt;バイクだとスピードが速いから景色があまりゆっくり見れないらしい。&lt;br /&gt;でも、自転車だとゆっくり景色が見れて、サイクリングを楽しんでる！&lt;br /&gt;もちろん、私達もエンジョイしたよ、サイクリング！（クリスありがとう！お疲れさん！私後ろに乗ってるだけだったから。でもなかなか後ろの座席に座ってるだけでもきついもんだよ。乗り心地よくないし・・・） &lt;br /&gt;オーロビルはまあまあだったかな。 &lt;br /&gt;残念ながら「世界一大きな水晶」という言われるものは見れなかった。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uQOw_yuI/AAAAAAAAAtM/XCtXVDAvorQ/s1600-h/IMG_2280.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5101925546745383650" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uQOw_yuI/AAAAAAAAAtM/XCtXVDAvorQ/s400/IMG_2280.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs5kLOw_y0I/AAAAAAAAAt8/q87Dbo2KQE4/s1600-h/GetAttachment.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5102125571962293058" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs5kLOw_y0I/AAAAAAAAAt8/q87Dbo2KQE4/s400/GetAttachment.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uROw_yvI/AAAAAAAAAtU/k9EyrwHiHaU/s1600-h/IMG_2284.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5101925563925252850" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uROw_yvI/AAAAAAAAAtU/k9EyrwHiHaU/s400/IMG_2284.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uR-w_ywI/AAAAAAAAAtc/T3tbQOJrObs/s1600-h/IMG_2303.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5101925576810154754" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uR-w_ywI/AAAAAAAAAtc/T3tbQOJrObs/s400/IMG_2303.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uTOw_yyI/AAAAAAAAAts/n7BO0vqb8XM/s1600-h/IMG_2305.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5101925598284991266" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uTOw_yyI/AAAAAAAAAts/n7BO0vqb8XM/s400/IMG_2305.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2yFOw_yzI/AAAAAAAAAt0/sK3vG3Xl4gQ/s1600-h/IMG_2304.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5101929755813333810" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2yFOw_yzI/AAAAAAAAAt0/sK3vG3Xl4gQ/s400/IMG_2304.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-6978352673110865787?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/6978352673110865787/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=6978352673110865787' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/6978352673110865787'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/6978352673110865787'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2007/03/cycling-with-motorbiker.html' title='Cycling with motorbiker　　バイク乗りと一緒にサイクリング'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs2uQOw_yuI/AAAAAAAAAtM/XCtXVDAvorQ/s72-c/IMG_2280.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-3473963595539691223</id><published>2007-03-23T08:22:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-08-23T21:50:30.257-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Meeting again!!　　再会！！</title><content type='html'>The Japanese motorbike girl came to see us today!!

type='text'>Amy-ko on parade 　恵美子オンパレード</title><content type='html'>I wore a sari(Indian woman's traditional clothes). I had chatted a few times with a girl named Uma, who warks in our guest house. She offered to bring in a sari for me to try on. She brought a yellow sari and showed me how to put it on. A sari is a single piece of cloth about 1.25m x 6m. To wear it, you have to wrap it around you a few times, and fold it into pleats in some places. A sari is easir to wear than a Japanese kimono for sure. Afterwards, she offered to bring in her special silk sari. I got to try that one on, too. I was very excited. I makes me want to buy a sari!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With Uma　ウマさんと一緒に&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewrV1WU5zI/AAAAAAAAAoA/_cRW_4jgP7I/s1600-h/IMG_2065.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038449737218713394" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewrV1WU5zI/AAAAAAAAAoA/_cRW_4jgP7I/s400/IMG_2065.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewrWVWU50I/AAAAAAAAAoI/cqCm4BCDC4A/s1600-h/IMG_2066.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038449745808648002" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewrWVWU50I/AAAAAAAAAoI/cqCm4BCDC4A/s400/IMG_2066.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewrW1WU51I/AAAAAAAAAoQ/F7jMOEQfTxg/s1600-h/IMG_2088.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038449754398582610" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewrW1WU51I/AAAAAAAAAoQ/F7jMOEQfTxg/s400/IMG_2088.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the friendly cleaning staff　ゲストハウスで働いている人達と一緒に&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewngVWU5wI/AAAAAAAAAno/a9hqgzlv2go/s1600-h/IMG_2089.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038445519560828674" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewngVWU5wI/AAAAAAAAAno/a9hqgzlv2go/s400/IMG_2089.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewnhVWU5xI/AAAAAAAAAnw/ZsmGBqwTedg/s1600-h/IMG_2090.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038445536740697874" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewnhVWU5xI/AAAAAAAAAnw/ZsmGBqwTedg/s400/IMG_2090.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewnhlWU5yI/AAAAAAAAAn4/ZTOTRZHeqiQ/s1600-h/IMG_2095.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038445541035665186" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewnhlWU5yI/AAAAAAAAAn4/ZTOTRZHeqiQ/s400/IMG_2095.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;South Indian women put on flowers in their hair as ornaments.&lt;br /&gt;南インドの女性は花の髪飾りをします。　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewkkVWU5tI/AAAAAAAAAnQ/N2v6IxWb-Kc/s1600-h/IMG_2099.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038442289745422034" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewkkVWU5tI/AAAAAAAAAnQ/N2v6IxWb-Kc/s400/IMG_2099.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewklFWU5uI/AAAAAAAAAnY/C-VB50oQlg8/s1600-h/IMG_2101.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038442302630323938" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewklFWU5uI/AAAAAAAAAnY/C-VB50oQlg8/s400/IMG_2101.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewkllWU5vI/AAAAAAAAAng/xA067CaxJqI/s1600-h/IMG_2106.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038442311220258546" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewkllWU5vI/AAAAAAAAAng/xA067CaxJqI/s400/IMG_2106.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewhaFWU5qI/AAAAAAAAAm4/gSqAkbWpIyE/s1600-h/IMG_2111.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038438815116879522" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewhaFWU5qI/AAAAAAAAAm4/gSqAkbWpIyE/s400/IMG_2111.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewhbFWU5sI/AAAAAAAAAnI/cNSptYXG_1E/s1600-h/IMG_2114.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5038438832296748738" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RewhbFWU5sI/AAAAAAAAAnI/cNSptYXG_1E/s400/IMG_2114.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ahhhh… It’s hot hot!!

He took refuge in Pondicherry, a French – controlled province. No longer working for Indian independence, he started an Ashram. An ashram is sort of like a temple or church that is started by a guru who teaches according to his beliefs. Followers of the guru come to live there and be taught by the guru. After Sri Aurobindo died, a French woman named Mirra Alfassa succeeded him. (Believers refer to her as the “Mother”.) She died in 1973. Auroville was started by her. Auroville is a community just outside of Pondicherry. “An experiment in international living where people can live in peace and progressive harmony above all creeds, politics, and nationalities. “It was opened in 1968 and now there are about 1700 residents. (Two-thirds of whom are foreigners, representing around 35 different nationalities.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RehAtVWU5kI/AAAAAAAAAlo/_pZtIIb-0OM/s1600-h/IMG_1965[1]"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037347330782979650" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RehAtVWU5kI/AAAAAAAAAlo/_pZtIIb-0OM/s400/IMG_1965%5B1%5D" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RehAtlWU5lI/AAAAAAAAAlw/__BCOZ22pK4/s1600-h/IMG_1971[1]"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037347335077946962" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RehAtlWU5lI/AAAAAAAAAlw/__BCOZ22pK4/s400/IMG_1971%5B1%5D" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Reg-s1WU5iI/AAAAAAAAAlY/qg2YZr52Y0A/s1600-h/IMG_1973[1]"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037345123169789474" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Reg-s1WU5iI/AAAAAAAAAlY/qg2YZr52Y0A/s400/IMG_1973%5B1%5D" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Reg-tVWU5jI/AAAAAAAAAlg/a4Zf8wTTZIo/s1600-h/IMG_1979[1]"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037345131759724082" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Reg-tVWU5jI/AAAAAAAAAlg/a4Zf8wTTZIo/s400/IMG_1979%5B1%5D" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;今日はレンタル自転車でオーロビルと言う町に行こうとトライしたが道に迷い・・・結局海に泳ぎに行った。&lt;br /&gt;波が高くて楽しかった。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;オーロビル：&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;インドの独立運動にも関わったヒンドゥー哲学者オーロビンドが始めた新宗教のアシュラムがあった所で、彼の死後、後継者であるフランス人女性Mirra Alfassa（通称マザー、１９７３年死去）の提唱により造られた理想都市。現在１７００人（３分の２以上は外国から移住してきた人。３５以上もの異なった国籍の人達。）が生活し、性や人種、国家の絆を超えた人類全体の精神世界の向上を目指している。&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-7760686068873659093?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/7760686068873659093/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=7760686068873659093' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/7760686068873659093'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/7760686068873659093'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2007/02/sorry-auroville-gonna-hit-beach.html' title='Sorry Auroville, gonna hit the beach　 ゴメンよオーロビル、ビーチへ予定変更！'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RehAtVWU5kI/AAAAAAAAAlo/_pZtIIb-0OM/s72-c/IMG_1965%5B1%5D' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-5999113151373026591</id><published>2007-01-23T06:06:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-03-03T06:02:38.544-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Pondicherry again　 再びポンディチェリーへ</title><content type='html'>We came back to Pondicherry.

We will find a new hotel tomorrow. :-(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Big &lt;em&gt;Msala Dosa　&lt;/em&gt;超でかい&lt;em&gt;マサラドーサ&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegurFWU5bI/AAAAAAAAAkE/a23QNdhAr7U/s1600-h/IMG_1902.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037327500918973874" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegurFWU5bI/AAAAAAAAAkE/a23QNdhAr7U/s400/IMG_1902.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bad air pollution in Bangalore　大気汚染のひどいバンガロー&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegurlWU5cI/AAAAAAAAAkM/Ijg04tvZmDs/s1600-h/IMG_1904.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037327509508908482" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegurlWU5cI/AAAAAAAAAkM/Ijg04tvZmDs/s400/IMG_1904.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegrZVWU5ZI/AAAAAAAAAjs/PiQedP1RF2s/s1600-h/IMG_1910.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037323897441412498" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegrZVWU5ZI/AAAAAAAAAjs/PiQedP1RF2s/s400/IMG_1910.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegrZ1WU5aI/AAAAAAAAAj0/JvJDHJg0vOc/s1600-h/IMG_1911.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037323906031347106" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegrZ1WU5aI/AAAAAAAAAj0/JvJDHJg0vOc/s400/IMG_1911.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;数日間バンガローに行くことに決めた。&lt;br /&gt;８時間のバスの旅。&lt;br /&gt;バンガローもまたエキシビジョン何たらでホテルはすごく混んでいた。&lt;br /&gt;結局安いホテルはどこも一杯で、私達は少し高めの汚いホテルに泊まった。&lt;br /&gt;明日はここをチェックアウトしてもっといい所探さなきゃ！&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-5488052637208184427?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/5488052637208184427/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=5488052637208184427' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/5488052637208184427'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/5488052637208184427'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2007/01/bangaloreno-escape-from-busyness.html' title='Bangalore:No escape from the busyness どこもかしこも混みすぎ！'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RegurFWU5bI/AAAAAAAAAkE/a23QNdhAr7U/s72-c/IMG_1902.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-8339212547029199452</id><published>2007-01-17T00:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-03-03T05:52:55.514-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Don't worry, coming soon  心配しないで もうすぐ来るから</title><content type='html'>We went to pondicherry from Mahabalipuram by bus.&lt;br /&gt;We were waiting for the bus for a long time, but it didn’t come. We asked at the ticket window many times, but they only said “Coming soon.” We waited longer, but it still didn’t come. We asked again. “The buses are very busy today. So, they don’t come to this bus stand. You should go to the other bus stand.” HUH? Why didn’t they tell us that in the first place! We had waited a long time. Eventually, we were able to take the bus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we arrived in Pondicherry, it was very busy. It was a national holiday. Hotels were all full. It was difficult to find a place to stay, but finally the information center man gave us nice cheap hotel, but only for one night.

The seafood was expensive, accommodation was not very cheap &lt;span style="color:#ff9966;"&gt;:-(&lt;/span&gt; We found a hotel that cost 250 Rs (CA$6.8). We left our backpacks there and walked around while they cleaned the room. After an hour, we went back our hotel to check in, but the hotel guy said “Not 250 Rs. It’s 300 Rs”. HUH?? It’s 250 Rs! The other guy told us 250 Rs. That’s why we left our backpacks. We asked him many times over and over again, but he didn’t want to understand. We were getting mad. Finally, he said “Okay, 250 Rs”, but by then, we didn’t want to stay at that hotel anymore because he lied to us. We also worried that if they were so dishonest, maybe they would try to steal something from us. We grumbled and left the hotel. After that, we found a nicer hotel, even though it was not as cheap.

You can buy antibiotics over-the-counter at the pharmacy in India, Nepal and China. Also, you can buy vaccines at the pharmacy in India. (very cheap!) You don’t need a prescription. You can’t just buy them in the pharmacy in Japan, you definitely need a doctor’s prescription. I’ve heard that foreign countries’ antibiotics are much stronger than Japanese. I was afraid to take it, but I took half of the recommended dose. Fortunately, we are starting to get better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RdHF27SogAI/AAAAAAAAAdc/Xlx0Wy_mxEY/s1600-h/IMG_1778.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5031019806169006082" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RdHF27SogAI/AAAAAAAAAdc/Xlx0Wy_mxEY/s400/IMG_1778.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Street food&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RdHF3rSogBI/AAAAAAAAAdk/wTjSVh7PnM0/s1600-h/IMG_1779.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5031019819053907986" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RdHF3rSogBI/AAAAAAAAAdk/wTjSVh7PnM0/s400/IMG_1779.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;さすがの私達も薬局へ行き、抗生物質を買った。&lt;br /&gt;日本では医師の処方箋が必要な抗生物質も、私が旅行したインド・ネパール・中国では薬局で普通に処方箋なしで買えるのだ。&lt;br /&gt;さらに驚くことにインドでは、予防接種まで薬局で買えてしまう。(しかも安い！)&lt;br /&gt;外国の薬は日本のと比べてとても強いらしく、普段薬を飲まない私としては非常に飲むのが怖かった。&lt;br /&gt;だから私は薬剤師から言われた量の半分の量を１日しか摂らなかった。&lt;br /&gt;でも幸いなことに私達は回復に向かっている。&lt;br /&gt;さすが抗生物質！！&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-7311576686588978236?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/7311576686588978236/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=7311576686588978236' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/7311576686588978236'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/7311576686588978236'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2007/01/yay-for-antibiotics.html' title='Yay for antibiotics　抗生物質万歳！！'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RdHF27SogAI/AAAAAAAAAdc/Xlx0Wy_mxEY/s72-c/IMG_1778.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-5210881598811333195</id><published>2007-01-02T05:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-16T06:10:42.810-08:00</updated><title type='text'>It' my turn!?　私の番！？</title><content type='html'>Chris was getting better little by little.&lt;br /&gt;I went to read a book at the Ghats this morning.

Kate and Martin were leaving Varanasi to go to Buddha Gaya in the evening, so I joined them and we went to the train station together. Chris and I had train tickets for Buddha Gaya for the next day, so I had to go to change out train tickets in case Chris didn’t get better. I was able to change our tickets, but Kate and Martin’s train was 4 hours late! If they took that train, they would arrive around midnight in Buddha Gaya. They decided to change their plan, skip Buddha Gaya, and go to straight to Kolkata. It was getting dark. I didin’t want to take a rickshaw by myself in the dark.

Sarnath is just 10 km northwest of Varanasi. It was a very small town, but it was very interesting to see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a coincidence today. We met the Japanese motorbike girl tonight in Varanasi. Close to the Ghats, the streets are very narrow. She was riding her big mortorbike on the narrow streets, shouting, “どいてー！どいてー！(get out of the way!)” in Japanese. Sometimes there are cows or dogs (and theirs poo) on the street. It’s even difficult to walk! After we met her, we guided her to her hotel. If she hadn’t met us, it would have been very difficult for her to find her hotel. She was lucky and very happy that she ran into us. Us too! :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mulgandha Kuti Vihar　ムルガンダ・クティー寺院&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx4KLSofrI/AAAAAAAAAZY/Ako0FIyJ538/s1600-h/IMG_1717.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5029527000090967730" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx4KLSofrI/AAAAAAAAAZY/Ako0FIyJ538/s400/IMG_1717.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dhamekh Stupa　ダメーク・ストゥーパ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx067SofqI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/fnZF4pOoOXU/s1600-h/IMG_1734.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5029523439563079330" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx067SofqI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/fnZF4pOoOXU/s400/IMG_1734.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chaukhandi Stupa　チャウカーンディ・ストゥーパ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx06LSofpI/AAAAAAAAAZI/iGeofqwth_c/s1600-h/IMG_1736.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5029523426678177426" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx06LSofpI/AAAAAAAAAZI/iGeofqwth_c/s400/IMG_1736.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Varanasi　バラナシ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcwLU7SofoI/AAAAAAAAAY8/qspsKc7hUl8/s1600-h/IMG_1745.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5029407338007133826" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcwLU7SofoI/AAAAAAAAAY8/qspsKc7hUl8/s400/IMG_1745.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx5zLSoftI/AAAAAAAAAZo/8P1H0vVtpBg/s1600-h/IMG_1710.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5029528803977232082" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx5zLSoftI/AAAAAAAAAZo/8P1H0vVtpBg/s400/IMG_1710.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx5zrSofuI/AAAAAAAAAZw/p6BP9YxYv1Y/s1600-h/IMG_1708.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5029528812567166690" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx5zrSofuI/AAAAAAAAAZw/p6BP9YxYv1Y/s400/IMG_1708.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx4KrSofsI/AAAAAAAAAZg/vI0HMPsq7zI/s1600-h/IMG_1712.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5029527008680902338" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx4KrSofsI/AAAAAAAAAZg/vI0HMPsq7zI/s400/IMG_1712.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日はブッダが初めて説法をしたと言われているサールナートへ行った。&lt;br /&gt;仏教徒の聖地、初転法輪の地である。 バラナシから北東に１０ｋｍの場所にある。&lt;br /&gt;小さな町だけど、見所がたくさんある町だった。&lt;br /&gt;今日はなんて偶然な日だろう！！&lt;br /&gt;なんとアグラで会ったバイクでケープタウンから旅行している日本人女性と再会したのだ。&lt;br /&gt;彼女もバラナシに行くことは知っていったが、本当に偶然だった。&lt;br /&gt;私達の泊まっているガート付近は道が狭いうえに、もちろんのように野良犬や野良牛がいて、そしてそれらのウンチが落ちている。&lt;br /&gt;その中を、「どいてー！どいてー！」と日本語で叫びながらバイクに乗った女性が近付いて来るじゃないの～～！！&lt;br /&gt;歩くのだって容易じゃないこの狭い道を、よくバイクで入ってきたなぁ～。&lt;br /&gt;私達は彼女のホテルまでガイドしてあげた。&lt;br /&gt;彼女は私達に会わないと、ホテルを見付けるのは絶対に難しかったはず。&lt;br /&gt;彼女は私達に会えてラッキーだったし、私達も会えてうれしかった。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-5125954427937724475?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/5125954427937724475/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=5125954427937724475' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/5125954427937724475'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/5125954427937724475'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/12/coincidental-reunion.html' title='Coincidental reunion　偶然の再会'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rcx4KLSofrI/AAAAAAAAAZY/Ako0FIyJ538/s72-c/IMG_1717.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-1897174806168919159</id><published>2006-12-26T03:20:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-13T05:41:02.418-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Worst town, Varanasi　最悪な町、バラナシ</title><content type='html'>We arrived in Varanasi before noon.

Finally, he asked me for money. Hotel touts followed us to get a commission... We asked the hotel touts many times, "Please don't follow us, " but nothing helped. Also we asked policemen to help, but they wouldn't help. We alomost got into a fight with some hotel touts. Eventually, they followed us until out hotel.

It was amazingly beautiful!! Before we entered the Taj Mahal, we were searched. Nothing unusual. Thy found my electronic dictionary. They told me, “Oh madam, you can’t bring in your calculator.” I said “It’s not a calculator. This is an electronic dictionary. (Actually, It has calculator.)” They said “No.” I said, “Why not?” They said, “No.” “???...My English is not good. I need a dictionary.” “No, you can’t bring in an electronic diary.” “HUH? This is not a electronic diary. This is a dictionary.” “No” Reluctantly, I went to leave my electronic dictionary in the cloakroom. I asked again there, too, but he said, “You can’t bring in a electronic diary.” “This is not a diary. This is a dictionary. My English is not good. I want read the information signs. I need this dictionary.” He couldn’t understand, and then I left my diary. Oops, no no… dictionary! After seeing the Taj Mahal, I went to pick up my electronic dictionary. When the cloakroom man passed me the dictionary, he dropped it very hard. AHHHHH!! OH MY!! He said, “Oh sorry, sorry.” I was really worried about it, but it still worked. It was annoying, annoying…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did you know the Taj Mahal isn’t a palace? It’s the tomb of Emperor Shah Jahan’s second wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died giving birth to their fourteenth child in 1631. The death of Mumtaz left the emperor so heart broken that his hair is said to have turned gray overnight. The emperor was crazy about construction, so he tried to represent his love for her by building the Taj Mahal. In total 20,000 people from India and Central Asia worked on the building. Specialists were brought in from as far afield as Europe to produce the exquisite marble screens and pietra dura (marble inlay work) made with thousands of semiprecious stones. The construction bill is believed to have run to Rs 3 million, equivalent to about CA$78 million today. The country was weakened by building the Tal. It took 22 years to build. It’s rumored that the emperor didn’t want anybody to build anything better than the Taj Mahal, so he cut off the hands of the people who worked on the Taj.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the afternoon, we went to Agra Fort. Emperor Shah Jahan was imprisoned there for 8 years in the Musamman Burj, where he could look out at the tomb of his second wife the Taj Mahal. If I was the emperor Shah Jahan’s first wife, I would have been jealous. :-P I’m wondering, didn’t he love his first wife as much?

I didn't want our laundry to get wet again, so I ran back to our hotel to pick up our laundry. On the way, some dogs barked at me. I couldn't pass those dogs. I was in rush. I wanted to hurry, but those dogs were scary. I called a shop man for help and ran into his shop. Finally, the dogs went away. Why did dogs bark at me? Because I was running? There are many owner less dogs in Nepal. Nobody runs, nobody jogs in Nepal. Is that  why? Or maybe I’m just on the dog’s blacklist, too? :-P &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This brunch, Kate and Martin taught me a lot of history of Nepal and Tibet. I’m ashamed to say that I don’t know about history so much. I was ashamed of my lack of knowledge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Something wrong...   何か違う・・・&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcNDZiUZjDI/AAAAAAAAAMw/710f_CHlPTU/s1600-h/IMG_1342.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5026935715063761970" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcNDZiUZjDI/AAAAAAAAAMw/710f_CHlPTU/s400/IMG_1342.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcNDaCUZjEI/AAAAAAAAAM4/6OXDO1Z8Cw4/s1600-h/IMG_1343.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5026935723653696578" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcNDaCUZjEI/AAAAAAAAAM4/6OXDO1Z8Cw4/s400/IMG_1343.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcNDaSUZjFI/AAAAAAAAANA/zlyVAvlzF60/s1600-h/IMG_1346.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5026935727948663890" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcNDaSUZjFI/AAAAAAAAANA/zlyVAvlzF60/s400/IMG_1346.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日は朝から洗濯をした。&lt;br /&gt;ホテルの屋上に干す場所があったので、そこに干して外出した。&lt;br /&gt;なんと夕方になって雨が降り出した。&lt;br /&gt;せっかく洗濯した物をまた濡らしたくなかったので、走って取り込みに行った。&lt;br /&gt;その途中、数匹の野良犬が吠えて付いて来た。&lt;br /&gt;洗濯を濡らしたくないからすごく急いでいるのに、その犬達をかわせずすごく困っていた。&lt;br /&gt;おまけにその犬達は今にも飛びかかってきそうで、怖くなり近くの店に入り助けを求めた。&lt;br /&gt;お店の人が犬を追い払ってくれてひと安心。&lt;br /&gt;・・・結局ホテルの人が洗濯物を取り込んでくれてた。&lt;br /&gt;それにしても何であの犬達は私に吠えかかって来たんだろう。&lt;br /&gt;私が走っていたから？&lt;br /&gt;ネパールにはたくさんの野良犬がいる。&lt;br /&gt;ネパールでは誰も走ったりジョギングしたりしない。&lt;br /&gt;ネパール人は時間を気にせずすごくゆっくり過ごしている。&lt;br /&gt;だから犬にとっては、走っている私が珍しかったのかな？？&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;それとも私の名前は犬のブラックリストに載ってるの？&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日、ブランチのときにKateとMartinにたくさんのネパールとチベットの歴史を教わった。&lt;br /&gt;恥ずかしながら、世界の歴史（日本史もだけど）にはめっきり弱い私・・・&lt;br /&gt;学生の時にちゃんと勉強しとくべきたっだな～～。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-1787149712937908257?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/1787149712937908257/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=1787149712937908257' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/1787149712937908257'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/1787149712937908257'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/11/dont-give-me-ravies.html' title='Don&apos;t give me ravies!　狂犬病にはなりたくな～い！'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RcNDZiUZjDI/AAAAAAAAAMw/710f_CHlPTU/s72-c/IMG_1342.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-1767645891982397390</id><published>2006-11-22T02:12:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-08-25T02:37:20.112-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Biker boys　バイカーボーイズ</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;We rented a mortorbike today.

Suddenly, our elephant became crazy. something must have spooked it. It kept making a loud trumpeting sound and a rumbling sound. It tried to run to a different elephant. The other tourists didn't want our crazy elephant making theirs crazy and scared, too! We were all very scared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxvnstm6tI/AAAAAAAAADw/BvG9D5robPU/s1600-h/IMG_0964.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025014012046666450" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxvnstm6tI/AAAAAAAAADw/BvG9D5robPU/s400/IMG_0964.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs_wuuw_y4I/AAAAAAAAAuc/aek4Rhxs_D4/s1600-h/IMG_0963.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5102561588452248450" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs_wuuw_y4I/AAAAAAAAAuc/aek4Rhxs_D4/s400/IMG_0963.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RbxxJ8tm6vI/AAAAAAAAAEA/HFdEqusFN04/s1600-h/IMG_0988.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025015699968813810" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RbxxJ8tm6vI/AAAAAAAAAEA/HFdEqusFN04/s400/IMG_0988.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RbxvoMtm6uI/AAAAAAAAAD4/1RK7632smWw/s1600-h/IMG_0978.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025014020636601058" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RbxvoMtm6uI/AAAAAAAAAD4/1RK7632smWw/s400/IMG_0978.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RbxxKstm6wI/AAAAAAAAAEI/0lXfz_LRPiA/s1600-h/IMG_0991.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025015712853715714" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/RbxxKstm6wI/AAAAAAAAAEI/0lXfz_LRPiA/s400/IMG_0991.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日は象に乗ってジャングルの中を散歩した。&lt;br /&gt;見た目とは違って、実際乗ってみると結構揺れて乗り心地はいいものではない。&lt;br /&gt;乗り物酔いしやすい私は、車酔いならぬ「象酔い」をしてしまった。&lt;br /&gt;吐きそうになり、象から降りるべきか悩んでいたとき、いきなり乗っていた象が暴れだした。&lt;br /&gt;そこら辺の木をむしり取り、放り投げ、急に走り出しだと思ったら吠え始め、唸り出し・・・（象は吠えるって言うの？鳴くっていうの？）&lt;br /&gt;いつ振り落とされるかと思ってメチャクチャ怖かった。&lt;br /&gt;象酔いなんてこの騒ぎで一気にふっ飛んだ。&lt;br /&gt;後で詳しくトレーナーに尋ねたら、一緒に歩いていた象が私達の象のお姉ちゃんだったらしく、その象と分かれて歩いたものだから暴れだしたのか？もしくはワニが近くにいたからか・・・？&lt;br /&gt;マジで！！？？&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-2092932191260762573?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/2092932191260762573/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=2092932191260762573' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/2092932191260762573'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/2092932191260762573'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/11/unusual-scary-elephant-rides.html' title='Unusual scary elephant rides!'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxvnstm6tI/AAAAAAAAADw/BvG9D5robPU/s72-c/IMG_0964.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-116860351171600314</id><published>2006-11-09T04:01:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-08-25T01:57:45.878-07:00</updated><title type='text'>A Yeti in the Jungle?　山男に会いに行くの巻き</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;We went Jungle trekking for 2 days and 1 night in Chitwan National Park. At first there was canoeing. We went down the river a little less than 1 hour in the morning mist. We saw a marsh mugger (crocodile) on the bank of the river. We got out of the canoe, and our guide explained what to do in case of each type of danger. If a rhino charges us, run in a zig-zag to hide behind or climb a tree. If a bear comes to close, stay together and make noise to hopefully scare it away. If a tiger comes close, stay together and pray that our guides can fend it off with their little bamboo sticks. I was getting scared. Also, we have to walk quietly, so we don’t scare the wild life away.&lt;br /&gt;We walked about over 35km in the 2 days in the jungle. Probably, I have never walked over 35km in 2 days (I have run over 35km a day, but never walked!). We were all very very tired, but we had seen a rhino, many crocodiles, deer, two kind of monkeys, and many kind of birds. We met some groups of trekkers, but none were able to see any rhino. We were very lucky!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs_uyOw_y3I/AAAAAAAAAuU/sp0NaYyBMek/s1600-h/IMG_0789.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5102559449558535026" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs_uyOw_y3I/AAAAAAAAAuU/sp0NaYyBMek/s400/IMG_0789.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxpqstm6oI/AAAAAAAAAC0/uMmk5j6W6wE/s1600-h/IMG_0798.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025007466516507266" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxpqstm6oI/AAAAAAAAAC0/uMmk5j6W6wE/s400/IMG_0798.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxprctm6pI/AAAAAAAAAC8/3PtjFYb6nUw/s1600-h/IMG_0801.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025007479401409170" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxprctm6pI/AAAAAAAAAC8/3PtjFYb6nUw/s400/IMG_0801.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxpr8tm6qI/AAAAAAAAADE/arsjpbnH4iE/s1600-h/IMG_0804.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025007487991343778" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxpr8tm6qI/AAAAAAAAADE/arsjpbnH4iE/s400/IMG_0804.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxrh8tm6rI/AAAAAAAAADM/8gRBmWkWxG0/s1600-h/IMG_0849.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025009515215907506" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxrh8tm6rI/AAAAAAAAADM/8gRBmWkWxG0/s400/IMG_0849.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxristm6sI/AAAAAAAAADU/4FvPpD3yjFo/s1600-h/IMG_0944.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5025009528100809410" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rbxristm6sI/AAAAAAAAADU/4FvPpD3yjFo/s400/IMG_0944.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日から１泊２日でチトワン国立公園の中のジャングルトレッキング。&lt;br /&gt;最初は船で川下り。&lt;br /&gt;朝霧の中をゆっくりと１時間弱の旅。&lt;br /&gt;途中、ワニを見ることができた。&lt;br /&gt;船から降りたらジャングルトレッキングのスタート。&lt;br /&gt;最初にガイドから危険時の説明。&lt;br /&gt;もしサイが追いかけて来た時は、ジグザクに走って木の後ろに隠れるか、木に登る。&lt;br /&gt;もし熊が近くに来たときは、みんな一緒に固まりノイズを発する。&lt;br /&gt;もしトラが出てきた時は、同じ様にみんな一緒に固まり、ガイドの持っている竹の杖で追い払ってくれるのを祈るのみ・・・&lt;br /&gt;・・・なんだか少し怖くなった。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;それから木や草を掻き分け歩きまくった。時々、道なき道も歩いた。&lt;br /&gt;いつ野生のトラやサイが出てくるか分からないから、いつも静かに歩かなくてはいけない。&lt;br /&gt;ガイドはいつも耳を澄まして歩いている。&lt;br /&gt;突然ガイドが、「静かに！」と言った。&lt;br /&gt;数分後サイが現れた！&lt;br /&gt;メチャクチャ大きかった！&lt;br /&gt;動物園のとは迫力がまったく違う！&lt;br /&gt;その後、ワニ、シカ、２種類のサル、数多くの鳥を見ることができた。&lt;br /&gt;数グループのトレッカーに会ったが、何も見れなかったと言っていた。&lt;br /&gt;私達はラッキーだったんだ！&lt;br /&gt;この１泊２日で３５ｋｍ以上を歩きまくった。&lt;br /&gt;この疲れ方と言ったら異常だった。&lt;br /&gt;多分、生まれてこの方２日で３５ｋｍ以上なんて歩いたことなんてないだろう。（走ったことはあるけどね・・・笑）&lt;br /&gt;　&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116860351171600314?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116860351171600314/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116860351171600314' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116860351171600314'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116860351171600314'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/11/we-went-jungle-trekking-for-2-days-and.html' title='A Yeti in the Jungle?　山男に会いに行くの巻き'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_vfnD0E5RIL8/Rs_uyOw_y3I/AAAAAAAAAuU/sp0NaYyBMek/s72-c/IMG_0789.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-116860328774183318</id><published>2006-11-07T03:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-30T20:36:28.595-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Elephant Love 　</title><content type='html'>We went to Elephant Breeding Center.

When we got off the bus, many rickshaw wallahs and hotel touts were waiting for us. They gathered around us and started talking to us. We couldn’t move. Kate and Martin turned them down flat, but they continued to talk and talk and talk… I was getting angry. Finally, I shouted to them “うるさーーーい！！ (“shut up!” in Japanese)”. Eventually, we ignored them and left to walk 3km to Sauraha to search for a hotel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ah! Banana trees!

Afterwards we all headed to Kathmandu. I fell asleep on the way. AHH!! Shoot!! I missed seeing the Maoists. They charge US$5 for each foreigner, but we didn’t need pay them because we were with the rafting crew. When Nils traveled from Nepal to Tibet, he paid the Maoist US$5. The Maoist gave Nils a receipt! :-D If he shows the receipt to them, he doesn’t have to pay them again.&lt;br /&gt;We arrived in Kathmandu safely in the evening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/768982/IMG_0628.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/400/873375/IMG_0628.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/493477/IMG_0657.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/400/998475/IMG_0657.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kathmandu　カトマンドゥー&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/520946/IMG_0681.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/400/148112/IMG_0681.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/651941/IMG_0700.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/400/39070/IMG_0700.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bag seller　バッグ屋さん&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/338217/IMG_0682.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/400/363380/IMG_0682.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With Nepali girl... or boy?　 ネパールの女の子？・・・男の子と一緒に。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/479910/IMG_0666.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/400/983168/IMG_0666.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ラフティングにはもってこいのいい天気！&lt;br /&gt;Nilsは早起きして他のグループの人達と一緒に説明を受けて練習をしている。&lt;br /&gt;それを見ていると、だんだん私もラフティングやりたくなってきた。&lt;br /&gt;しまった・・・私も申し込んどけば良かった・・・&lt;br /&gt;私達はNilsのカメラマンとなり、バスに乗り後を追いかけた。&lt;br /&gt;見ているとメチャクチャ楽しそうでもっとラフティングやりたくなった。&lt;br /&gt;ラフティングツアーリスト一行を乗せたバスはカトマンドゥーへ向けて出発。&lt;br /&gt;途中ウトウトしていたら・・・&lt;br /&gt;しまった！見そこなった！&lt;br /&gt;銃を持ったマオイストの検問を見逃してしまったのだ。&lt;br /&gt;いまだに多くのマオイストは山に潜んでいて、外国人から多くのお金を取っている。&lt;br /&gt;このカトマンドゥーへ行く道も、マオイスト出没地としては有名な場所である。&lt;br /&gt;一人当たりUS$5も取るらしい。&lt;br /&gt;しかし私達はラフティングリゾート社のバスに乗っていた為払わなくてもよかったらしい。（ラフティングリゾート社が払うらしい）&lt;br /&gt;ネパールからチベットに来たNilsはここでマオイストにUS$5払って、おまけに領収書までもらっている。(笑)&lt;br /&gt;夕方無事カトマンドゥーに到着！&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116852213089702601?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116852213089702601/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116852213089702601' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116852213089702601'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116852213089702601'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/10/sneaking-past-maoists.html' title='Sneaking past the Maoists 　マオイストから逃れるの巻'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-116756787717504995</id><published>2006-10-28T03:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-01-11T03:58:15.316-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Nepal immigration black list,　ネパールボーダーブラックリスト</title><content type='html'>I HATE immigration!!

We were lucky to be able to get tickets, and went to Potala Palace today. Potala is onother UNESCO World heritage site. From Potala Palace the view was amazing. We were not allowed to take pictures of the inside of Potala Palace. It was interesting to see. Potala Palace has the tombs of the 5th to 13th Dalai Lamas. Each one is made with a few hundred kilograms of gold!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                 Potala Palace　ポタラパレス&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/873634/IMG_0107.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/320/187999/IMG_0107.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/327332/IMG_0087.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/320/547327/IMG_0087.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Praying buddist in front of Jyokan&lt;br /&gt;ジョカンの前でお祈りをしている仏教徒　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/553911/IMG_0044.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/320/1001/IMG_0044.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/245082/IMG_0048.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/320/877883/IMG_0048.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;　　　　&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/1600/517415/IMG_0053.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/1532/3684/320/410364/IMG_0053.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ポタラ宮の入場券を入手するのは難しいと聞いていたが、ラッキーなことに前日にゲットできた。&lt;br /&gt;ポタラ宮からの眺めはとても素晴らしかった。&lt;br /&gt;残念ながらポタラ宮殿内の写真撮影は禁止。&lt;br /&gt;宮殿内には、ダライラマ５世から１３世の墓があり、それぞれ数百キロの金が使われている。ポタラ宮の評判はまちまちだけど、私的には興味のあるものだったと思う。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116512967622258321?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116512967622258321/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116512967622258321' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116512967622258321'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116512967622258321'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/10/potala-palace.html' title='Potala Palace　ポタラパレス'/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-116512807246260515</id><published>2006-10-17T22:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-12-11T07:34:05.473-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Chengdu → Lhasa　　成都 → ラサ</title><content type='html'>It is our first time to take domestic flight in China.

It was very very spicy, but delicious. ;-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2998.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2998.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG3002.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG3002.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;早朝、成都に無事到着。&lt;br /&gt;それはそれは最悪な38時間の列車の旅だった。&lt;br /&gt;禁煙席で何人もタバコ吸うし・・・。&lt;br /&gt;頭にきて何度も「ここでタバコ吸わないでください。」って言いましたよ！&lt;br /&gt;中国語で！(请不要吸烟 xing bu yao xi yan)&lt;br /&gt;そりゃー私だって言いたくはないですよ！(怒)&lt;br /&gt;でも、あまりにもひどい状況だったから頑張って言いましたよ！&lt;br /&gt;まぁ～とにかく無事に成都に着きました！&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;夜ホステルで大連に留学しているという日本人女性と出会い、一緒に成都名物激辛鍋を食べに行きました。メチャクチャ辛かったけどおいしかった！！&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116038304926018596?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116038304926018596/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116038304926018596' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116038304926018596'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116038304926018596'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-arrived-in-chengdu-in-very-early.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-116003420764187316</id><published>2006-09-27T00:43:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-09T01:30:01.336-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>We are going to go to Chengdu(成都) this evening. It will take about 38 hours by train. It’s the first time for me to take such a loooooooong train ride. I have no idea how I will spend the time on the train. Nintendo DS? Read book? Eat? BUT, the Nintendo DS batteries will die, I have already read my book, and if I eat a lot, then I will have to use the disgusting train toilets….

We couldn’t get any seat tickets, so we had to stand all the way. Luckily it was only 3 hours. BUT, it was crazy again!! The train is a no smoking train, but the Chinese don’t care. Many people smoked. I got a stomachache. I’d get sick if I was on the train much longer. The buses in China are worse. So many people smoke on the bus. It seems some people on the bus always have a lit cigarette. Also, so many Chinese people spit anywhere. Not only men, but also women make their horrible choking sound, then spit. On the street, on the bus or train, in the train station, in hotel rooms and in the hotel lobby, on the UNESCO world heritage sites … anywhere! They even spit out half finished food onto the restaurant table or floor. I can’t believe it! L&lt;br /&gt;We found a hotel for 20 yuan (less than C$3) per person. :-D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2875.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2875.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;大草原ツアーから帰ってきて、午後パオトウへ移動。&lt;br /&gt;不幸なことに列車の席がなく・・・でも３時間くらいの旅なのでスタンディングでも我慢できると思ったが・・・&lt;br /&gt;最悪でした。&lt;br /&gt;すごく混んでて、私達みたいに席がなく立っている人が大勢。&lt;br /&gt;おまけに、禁煙車両だけどそんなのお構いなく中国人はタバコを吸うし。&lt;br /&gt;あまりに煙たくて、胃が痛くなる始末。&lt;br /&gt;中国はタバコを吸わない人にとっては辛い国だ・・・&lt;br /&gt;列車に限らず、バスでも同じ。何度か注意したけど効き目なし。&lt;br /&gt;おまけにあらゆるところにつばを吐く。道端はもちろん、列車の中、バスの中、ホテルの部屋、駅の中、レストラン、世界遺産の観光名所・・・&lt;br /&gt;駅の待合室につばを吐かないでという看板を見つけたくらい。&lt;br /&gt;でも皆、カァ～～～ペッって吐きまくってるけど。&lt;br /&gt;どこにでもつばを吐くのと、禁煙エリアでタバコを吸うのだけは許せない！！&lt;br /&gt;結局私は、Nintendo DSして気を紛らわせ、読書して気を紛らわせ・・・やっとパオトウに到着。そしてその夜は一泊20元(300円)のホテルに泊まった。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116003274070958068?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116003274070958068/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116003274070958068' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003274070958068'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003274070958068'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-traveled-to-baotou-by-train.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-116003216138216831</id><published>2006-09-22T00:07:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-06-07T09:45:19.644-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2782.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/200/CIMG2782.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2783.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/200/CIMG2783.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We went on a Grasslands tour! When we were on our way to the grasslands, there was a stretch of straight road, so we were driving fairly fast. We ran over something on the road and BAM! Our tire on our car popped!! Our minivan swerved all over the road. While we were swerving, I was trying to figure out what I could hold onto. It was good that no cars were coming the opposite way at the time. Amazingly, our driver was able to keep the van on the road. We all got out of the van while they changed the tire. Maybe I wasn’t the most scared though. Again, we were sitting in what we figure are the safer seats in the middle of the van. One Australian guy who had been sitting near the front in the middle kept saying how scared he was. He said the whole time he was imagining himself going through the windshield in front of him.&lt;br /&gt;The condition of the grass was pretty bad, but we enjoyed the trip. We went horseback riding. It was the first time for me! Nobody spoke English, so they couldn’t give me instructions. They just motioned how to turn right, turn left and stop. They said stuff in Chinese, but I don’t know what exactly. We started out… and suddenly the horses began to run!! I almost cried. Whaaaaaa, nooooooooo!!! There was another Australian girl in our group and she helped me a bit. My horse was clever. He could understand guide’s voice. Also, my horse and the Australian girl’s horse seemed to be friends or siblings, so they stayed close together. Little by little, I got used riding. I could run fast! I was really enjoying it. I think I’d like to try horseback riding again! :-D After riding the horses for about 2 hours, we walked around few hours. Then we returned and saw Mongolian wrestling and horse racing. We started supper around 7pm then watched traditional Mongolian dance. Afterwards, we were also able to dance a bit. We slept in a yurt (a traditional Mongolian home). It was very cold that night, but with the blankets we were warm enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2786.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/200/CIMG2786.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2807.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/200/CIMG2807.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2867.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/200/CIMG2867.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/Copy%20of%20CIMG2824.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/Copy%20of%20CIMG2824.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;大草原ツアーに参加しました。&lt;br /&gt;なんと、途中で車のタイヤがパンク！！&lt;br /&gt;運転手が上手いこと止まってくれたおかげで、怪我もなく済んだ。&lt;br /&gt;パンクして車がジグザグ走ったときはどうなるかと思ったが・・・&lt;br /&gt;キャンプ地に到着・・・季節も少し遅かったせいもあるけれど、草原のコンディションは良くなかった。&lt;br /&gt;でも、生まれて初めての乗馬を体験！！&lt;br /&gt;説明はもちろん全部中国語。少しだけ英語が混じってたけど。&lt;br /&gt;もちろん中国語の説明なんて分かるわけがなく・・・&lt;br /&gt;教えてもらったのは右に曲がる方法と左に曲がる方法とストップの仕方のみ。&lt;br /&gt;ハイ、それでは出発！・・・っておいおい！私メッチャビギナーなんですけど！これだけでいいの？&lt;br /&gt;出発してすぐはゆっくり歩くだけでよかったんだけど、すぐに走り出した！！&lt;br /&gt;えええぇぇぇぇぇ～～～ちょっと、ちょっと待ってよ～～Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;泣きそうになりながら必死で手綱握ってた。&lt;br /&gt;同じツアーの人達も止まってくれて、「戻る？」って尋ねられたけど、お金払ったのもったいないし、意地でもやってやると思い、ガンバッタヨ！&lt;br /&gt;同じツアーのオーストラリア人の女の人がすごく上手で、教えてもらいながら進んでいった。&lt;br /&gt;幸いなことに私の乗った馬はすごく利口で、ガイドの声を聞き分けて判断するし、オーストラリア人女性の馬と友達か兄弟らしくいつもくっついて走っていた。&lt;br /&gt;他の馬は、利口でない馬もいた。何を言ってもやってもいうことを聞かない。&lt;br /&gt;私はラッキーな馬に当たったんだわ！ ＾０＾！&lt;br /&gt;次第に慣れてきて、メッチャ早く走れるようになった！まるで競馬選手のように！&lt;br /&gt;皆、私が始めての乗馬には見えなかったって言ってた！すごく上手だったってさ！＾０＾v&lt;br /&gt;乗馬が終わったら、数時間散歩して、その後モンゴル相撲と競馬を見た。&lt;br /&gt;ディナーの後モンゴル舞踊や歌を披露してくれ、観光客の人達とダンスをして夜を過ごした。そして、モンゴルのテント式住居のパオで寝ました。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116003216138216831?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116003216138216831/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116003216138216831' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003216138216831'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003216138216831'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-went-on-grasslands-tour-when-we.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-116003196452814633</id><published>2006-09-21T00:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-08T23:37:37.736-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2761.2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2761.2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2768.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2768.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are in Inner Mongolia in Hohhot now. (Hohhot in Chinese is 呼和浩特, ‘HuHeHaoTe’). It is interesting to see all the signs with both Mongolian script and Chinese characters on them. We visited to Inner Mongolia museum (内蒙古博物馆), the Xilituzhao temple (席力图召寺) and Great Mosque (清真大寺).&lt;br /&gt;Before we went to the Inner Mongolian museum, we were hungry. We were looking for a restaurant, couldn’t find any. While we were walking on the street, I saw a bunch of parked bicycles and motorbikes. Yay, there’re some restaurant or groceries, I thought. But then I realized… it was just a bunch of bike shops! … :-P&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今、フフホト(呼和浩特)という内モンゴル自治区の町にいます。&lt;br /&gt;フフホト(呼和浩特)はモンゴル語で「青い城」と言う意味。&lt;br /&gt;モンゴル族をはじめ、約20万人もの少数民族が暮らしいている町らしく、看板はどこを見&lt;br /&gt;ても中国語とモンゴル語の二つが記載されている。&lt;br /&gt;これを見ると、モンゴルに来たんだな～と実感できる。&lt;br /&gt;今日は内蒙古博物館と、席力図召というチベット仏教寺院と、清真大寺というイスラム教のお寺に行きました。&lt;br /&gt;内蒙古博物館に行く前、すごくお腹が空いていたので食事をしようとレストランを探していました。&lt;br /&gt;でもなかなか見付からず歩き回っていると・・・道に自転車とバイクがたくさん停まってるではありませんか！！&lt;br /&gt;やった～レストランかスーパーがある～と思って行ったら・・・・&lt;br /&gt;なんとただのバイクショップだった・・・ガッカリ・・・&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2780.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/200/CIMG2780.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2762.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/200/CIMG2762.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116003196452814633?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116003196452814633/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116003196452814633' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003196452814633'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003196452814633'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-are-in-inner-mongolia-in-hohhot-now.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115873079623114300</id><published>2006-09-20T22:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-09-26T21:45:05.196-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Hey everyone!

It is the oldest of the Chengdu temples. It is a one-third scale model of the Dalai Lama’s Potala palace in Lhasa. The temple used to serve as an offering to those of lama faith and housed visiting Tibetan dignitaries. Inside, there’s a special shrine and seat for the planned coming of the Eighth Dalai Lama, who was not able to visit.&lt;br /&gt;After that, we visited Puning temple (普宁寺), also a UNESCO world heritage site. The name means “Temple of Universal Peace.” In the temple is the 42-armed, 110-ton Guanyin (Goddess of Mercy). At 22m tall, it is the largest wooden Buddhist statue in the world.&lt;br /&gt;It seems like everywhere one goes there is a biggest something Buddha. For example…the biggest reclining Buddha, the biggest sitting Buddha, the biggest bronze Buddha… Another traveler told me the biggest wooden Buddha is 27m tall and is in Beijing. Hah? Which is the biggest wood Buddha?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日は承徳の世界遺産の普陀宗乗之廟（ふだそうじょうしびょう）と、普寧寺（ふねんじ）に行きました。&lt;br /&gt;普陀宗乗之廟は、1770年(乾隆35年)の乾隆帝60歳と、1771年(乾隆36年)の皇太后の80歳を祝うために1767から4年の歳月をかけて造営され、1771年の8月に完成した。&lt;br /&gt;普寧寺は1755年に着工し4年の歳月をかけて完成した世界最大の木彫観音像があります。&lt;br /&gt;世の中には世界一大きな銅像観音像や、世界一大きいな横たわっている観音像、世界一大きな座ってる観音像・・・などなど、観音像一つにしたって世界一が多すぎる！！&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116003173140707439?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116003173140707439/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116003173140707439' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003173140707439'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003173140707439'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-visited-putuozongcheng-temple-which.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-116003153203864145</id><published>2006-09-14T23:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-05T05:31:30.003-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>We left Beijing for Chengde (承德) by bus. It took 5 and half hours. It was a very dangerous road, so we sat in the middle of the bus. (We figured they were the safest seats.) There are many car accidents on that highway. My guidebook recommended taking the train rather than bus. I can understand why there were so many accidents. Although there were two lanes painted on the road, there were 3 lanes of traffic! The center of the road was for passing, even if there was a car coming in the opposite direction. Sometimes the road was narrow and the outside lanes had to drive on the shoulder.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;私達は北京から承徳にバスで移動しました。&lt;br /&gt;中国の車の運転はすごく荒い！２車線の所でも普通に追い越す。&lt;br /&gt;時には２車線の所で対向車も追い越しをしていて、こちらも追い越しをしていて、４車線になっているときもある。（表現が難しいけど、路肩を使って追い越しをするっていうこと。）&lt;br /&gt;でも中国ではこれが普通みたいで・・・誰も文句言う人なんていない。&lt;br /&gt;私のガイドブックも交通事故が多い路線なので、できれば列車の旅をお勧めすると言っている・・・&lt;br /&gt;でも、いい時間の列車がなかった訳で・・・&lt;br /&gt;承徳に着く間に何件も交通事故を見かけた。&lt;br /&gt;ああぁぁ～～無事着いてよかった！でも、何度ヒヤッとしたことか・・・&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-116003153203864145?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/116003153203864145/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=116003153203864145' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003153203864145'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/116003153203864145'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-left-beijing-for-chengde-by-bus.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115872827614791363</id><published>2006-09-13T21:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-05T05:22:02.433-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2517.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2517.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2512.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2512.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2529.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2529.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We went to see the Great Wall. It takes 4 hours to go there by bus. We walked for 5 hours from Jinshanling to Simatai. It was very amazing! One bad thing is that so many locals follow us, trying to be our “guide”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;万里の長城に行ってきました～～！！ ４時間バスに揺られて。そして５時間万里の長城（金山岭から司馬台長城）を歩きました。地元の人がガイドをするためにずっと私達についてきていたのが、気になったけど、ずっと断り続けて歩きました。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-115872827614791363?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/115872827614791363/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=115872827614791363' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115872827614791363'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115872827614791363'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-went-to-see-great-wall.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115872818176451177</id><published>2006-09-12T21:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-05T04:59:05.166-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2484.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2484.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2473.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2473.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We went to Tiananmen Square.

It was a very huge area. We were already very tired. It took a whole day to see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日は故宮に行って来ました。紫禁城（しきんんじょう）とも呼ばれる明王朝と清王朝の大宮。1420年に竣工し、1912年に最後の皇帝溥儀（ふぎ）が退位するまで、24人の皇帝が約500年にわたってここの統治の中心としてきた。総面積は72万㎡、周囲は高さ10mの城壁で囲まれており、城壁の周りには幅52mの濠が巡らされている。メッチャ広い敷地で全部見るのにはすごく疲れる。見るのにほとんど一日かかりました。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-115872808271018037?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/115872808271018037/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=115872808271018037' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115872808271018037'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115872808271018037'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-went-to-forbidden-city.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115872803426721642</id><published>2006-09-09T21:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-05T03:13:32.603-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2412.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2412.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2416.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2416.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2422.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2422.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We got up at 5 am. We went to see the sunrise. We were very lucky, because there is only a 50% to see it. It was amazing. Very very beautiful. I have never seen a sunrise like that.&lt;br /&gt;We left Taishan 10:35 pm to Beijing. We couldn’t get a bed tickets. Our seats were just cheapest hard seats. It was very crazy. We arrived at the station early, and were near the front of the “line”. We walked quickly to the train, but it was difficult to tell where our car would stop. When we figured it out we were at the back the large crowed. Unlike Japan the train in China isn’t very accurate. Lucky for us, our car stopped a little far from the crowd and in the rush we ended up close to the front. We were able to place our luggage on the rack. Many people had no seats so were standing up. It was a bit nervous. It was my first time to take a”hard seat” train in China. It was hot, stinky and　uncomfortable. Everyone was packed into the train. The lady sitting across from me stretched out and put her feet up on my seat between the person sitting next to me and myself! All of a sudden BAM! A huge bag fell on me!&lt;br /&gt;After a couple hours a man came out from under the seat in front of mine. Surprised as the girl whose legs he moved in order to crawl out. He was sleeping under the seats! Many people laughed that there was someone hiding under the seat of the crowded train.&lt;br /&gt;When we got off the train, an old man was lying on the ground. I thought, he fell down or was just drunk. I tried check his pulse, but the station security said “Don’t touch him!” We were going to give up. But I looked at his chest. His chest wasn’t moving. He wasn’t breathing. I threw my backpack down. I checked his pulse of neck. He was in cardiac arrest. Immediately I started CPR. I did heart massage for over a minute, but he didn’t start breathing and his heart didn’t start beating. I continued it. Finally, he started breathing and his heart started beating. The ambulance still didn’t come. I kept yelling at the station security. “Why it doesn’t come?” The answer was just “Will it come in 3 minutes”. More than 3 minutes already past though! He was still unconscious and his the pupils didn’t move. Twice a doctor passed by and stopped to help me, but they didn’t do anything. Just checked the pupils, a reflex then, then left. An ambulance came over 15 minutes, after I start CPR. They weren’t hurry. They were just come walking. It seems the nurse and doctor just woke up. Sleepy-eyed, sleepy-face, hair was tousled with sleep. The paramedic was sooooooooo slow. I did help them a lot!!&lt;br /&gt;All the conversation was Chinese. I don’t speak Chinese. Luckily, my friend can speak a bit of Chinese. Also, someone who can speak English came to help. But, his English wasn’t so good. When I asked him to talk to the patient, he just talks to us!&lt;br /&gt;I couldn’t believe Chinese emergency. I hope he will be better, but he will most likely be a vegetable… I never dreamed I would perform CPR in China!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;早朝５時に起きて、御来光見に行きましたよ！！ 前夜からすごく天気が悪く小雨も降ってたし、風もすごく強かったから御来光見れるかすごく心配だったけど・・・朝はメッチャ天気でした！！ご来光を見れる確率は50%ということ。すごくラッキー！！ （私雨女なのに・・・）すごくきれいな御来光が見れましたよ！泰山で御来光に願い事をすればそれがかなうと言われていて、この際たくさん願い事をしてきました！＾０＾！&lt;br /&gt;夜行列車で22:35北京に向けて出発！ベッド席が満席でチケットがなく、一番安い硬座と言われる、いわゆる昔のローカル列車のような向き合った席になりました。これがまた超超超ウルトラ・スーパー最悪！！皆、荷物を網棚に乗せる為早くから並んで待つわけですよ。でも、外国人の私達にはどこで待っていいかよく分からず、間違った所に行ってしまい・・・。自分達の車両に並んだ時にはもう既に長い行列。でも中国では順番に並ぶという習慣はあってないようなもの。途中から割り込んでくるのは当たり前。でもそんなのに慣れてない私達は結局ちゃ～んと列に並んだ訳で・・・。でも、列車が止まったのが待っていた場所より少しずれて・・・私達はここぞとばかりに割り込みました！！まるで中国人のように！＾０＾！おかげで大きなバックパックは網棚に乗せることができました。でも、通路には席がなくて立ってる人が大勢いるんですよ！北京まで７時間以上もある夜行列車なのに。立ったまま寝るの？ なんだか列車に詰め込まれてるって感じ。&lt;br /&gt;な～んだか席に座ったときから変な気分で、怖いような、なんと言うか言葉にできない気分だったんだけど・・・この後多くの悲劇が待っているとは・・・。&lt;br /&gt;私の席の前に荷物をたくさん持った中年のおばさんが座ったんだけど、これがまたその荷物を乗せる網棚がなく、その人は既に置いてあった網棚の荷物のさらにその上に自分の荷物の乗せようとしてるんですよ。皆危ないな～って思いながら見てたんですが・・・。そしたらやっぱり落ちてきました。それも私の上に！その荷物というのは20kg以上はある米袋。びっくりするし痛いし・・・もう泣きそうになりましたよ。&lt;br /&gt;そしてしばらくしたら、そのおばさん・・・自分の足を私とその横の人の間の椅子に置くじゃありませんか！日本では考えられないことですね。&lt;br /&gt;そしてまたしばらくすると・・・なんと私の座ってる前の席の下から、おじさんが出てくるではありませんか！あの狭い所から。顔を出したのが若い女性の足元で。椅子の下は網棚に乗せれない荷物を置いたりしてるのに。立って寝るより椅子の下で寝たほうがいいと思ったのか・・・。皆びっくりするしおかしいやらで。&lt;br /&gt;北京駅に朝６時前に着きました。そしたらおじいさんが倒れてるじゃありませんか。看護師としてはそう人を見ると見捨てられないわけで・・・。脈を診ようとしたら、駅員から「触らない！」と言われてしまい。ただの酔っ払いかな～と思いその場を離れようとして、もう一度その人の胸を見ると・・・動いてない！！慌てて呼吸と頚動脈、橈骨動脈確認すると・・・呼吸停止に心停止！！自分のバックパック投げ捨てすぐにCPR始めましたよ！気道確保して心臓マッサージ。あんな時ってもうパニックですよ！心臓マッサージなんてもう２年以上もやってないわけで。CCUで働いていたときは嫌って言うほどやったのに。絶対に１分以上はやったと思うけど、呼吸もしないし心臓も動かない。おまけに救急車も来ない！！一体中国の救急医療はどうなってるの？ 駅員に何度も何度も救急車は何で来ないの？って聞くけど、３分以内には来るからって答えるだけ。もう既に３分以上過ぎてるんですけど！！「ドクターいませんか～～！！？？」って叫びながら心臓マッサージし続けました。やっと呼吸し始め、心臓も動き出した。偶然ペンライトを持ってて瞳孔反射診るけど、反射なし。レベルも０。偶然英語を話せる男の人が来て、患者に呼びかけるように言うんだけど、彼は患者に呼びかけず私達に呼びかけるはで・・・役に立たず。救急車を待ってる間、自称ドクターという人が２人来たけど、レベル見て瞳孔反射診るだけ。あああぁぁぁ～～～もう、なんて使えないドクターなんだ！！ やっと救急車が来たと思ったら・・・全く急いでいない。だって歩いて来るんですよ！もう信じられない！おまけにドクターもナースも髪に寝癖が付いてて、寝ぼけ顔で、今起きたばかりと言わんばかりの状態。呆れて言葉が出なかったですよ。来て何をするかと言うと、一向に急ぐことなくゆっくりと心電図を取り、血圧を測り、血管確保。それも暗い中の作業なのにランプも持ってないし。私のペンライト貸してあげましたよ！そしてゆっくりストレッチャーに移動。一応CPRをした旨と、確実に１分以上の呼吸停止と心停止があったことを伝えたけど、彼らは分かってくれたのか・・・。患者が運ばれて行った後、一応駅員からお礼の言葉をもらった。もっと早くに彼の異常に気付いてあげてれば・・・って思ったけど、あれが精一杯の事だったと思う。最初に駅員から触るなと言われるし、救急車は来ないし・・・。彼の回復を祈るばかりです。でもきっと良くても麻痺が残って社会復帰できるか、若しくは植物状態かと思う。家族が最後の時期に間に合えばいいけれど・・・。なんかホッとしたら急に怖くなった。まさか自分が外国で、それも中国の首都の北京駅でCPRをするなんて・・・。これは全部中国語でのやり取りだったけど、私の友達が少し中国語を話せたのが本当にラッキーだった。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-115872803426721642?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/115872803426721642/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=115872803426721642' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115872803426721642'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115872803426721642'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-got-up-at-5-am.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115872771682536414</id><published>2006-09-08T21:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-05T02:46:57.543-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2360.2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2360.2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2394.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/200/CIMG2394.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2375.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2375.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2386.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2386.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We climbed Mt, Tai (泰山) by foot. Mt, Tai is most sacred Daoist mountain in China. Many famous people climbed this mountain, including many emperors, Chairman Mao, and even Confucius. It took about 5 hours to climb. There were many steps. It was very hard to climb. There was a cable car, but we didn’t take it.&lt;br /&gt;We stayed at the top of the mountain. The price was 40 yuan(C$6) per person, but we bargained down to 20 yuan(C$3). We went to bed very early so we would be able to wake up to see sunrise the next morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日は泰山という山に登りました。この山は、中国はもちろん世界的にも名高い名山で世界遺産にも登録されています。泰山には数多くの文人墨客が登っていて、孔子は「登泰山而小天下（泰山に登ると天下はなんと小さいことか）」という言葉をこの地で残したそうです。&lt;br /&gt;ガイドブックには7412段の石段と全長９kmと書いてあったけど・・・それ以上に感じた・・・。バスとロープウェーもあったけど、お金を浮かせるためと、全部自分の足で登ったという実感を味わいたかったので、全部自分の力で登りましたよ～～！5時間くらいかかりました。頂上付近の寒いこと寒いこと。たぶん気温は一桁。上着を持って行っててよかった～～！！&lt;br /&gt;泰山の頂上からの御来光は絶対に見るべきだという私達のガイドブックのアドバイスどおり、頂上のホテルに泊まり翌日の早朝に備えました。１泊600円のホテルを半額の300円にまでまけてもらい・・・といっても、寝るだけのホテルだからこれくらいまけてくれないと！！ホテルにはテレビもないし、な～～んにもすることなく、しかも風邪気味ということもあり19時頃にはもうベッドに入りました。翌朝は５時起きだからね・・・&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-115872771682536414?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/115872771682536414/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=115872771682536414' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115872771682536414'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115872771682536414'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-climbed-mt-tai-by-foot.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115742744308504064</id><published>2006-09-04T20:35:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-05T02:14:53.210-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/??????4??????Under"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F4%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3FUnder%20water%20worldCIMG2175.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/9???4??????Under"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/9%3F%3F%3F4%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3FUnder%20water%20world%3F%3F%3FCIMG2167.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/9???4???870??????????????????CIMG2191.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/9%3F%3F%3F4%3F%3F%3F870%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3FCIMG2191.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/??????4??????Under"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We went to “under water world (an aquarium)”.

It’ll takes over 7 hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日は「アンダーウォーターワールド」という水族館に早起きして行きました！本当は昨日行けなかった海水浴に行こうと思ったけど、小雨が降ってて、おまけに寒い！！ ウインドブレーカーを着てました。日本のあの蒸し暑さがうそのよう・・・まるで冬のような一日でしたよ。&lt;br /&gt;明日の夜から「泰山」という町に移動する予定。夜行列車で７時間以上かかる所です。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-115742744308504064?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/115742744308504064/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=115742744308504064' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115742744308504064'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115742744308504064'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/we-went-to-under-water-world-aquarium.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115742735227514357</id><published>2006-09-03T20:35:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-05T02:04:25.446-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/?????????????????????????????????CIMG2140.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3FCIMG2140.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/?????????????????????????????????CIMG2156.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3F%3FCIMG2156.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got up very late. We went to Qingdao beer museum. My friend got drunk again! Actually I don’t like beer. I can’t drink beer… So he drank mine too. He bought 20 bags beer peanuts. He’s toooo crazy!! I wish I could drink beer… it would be fun. :-P&lt;br /&gt;After that, we went to a beach to swim. But, it was too dark to swim. We couldn’t swim. Then we went to dinner. We ate noodle and drank bubble tea. Our whole dinner was 18 yuan which is about C$2.5!! Can you believe it? Very cheap, eh!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;起きるのが遅かったけど、今日は青島ビール博物館に行きました。私がビール飲めないの知ってますよね！？例の友達はまた酔っ払い・・・メールが飲めない私の分まで飲んでましたよ。つまみがないと言って、買い足してたし。ビールが飲めるとさぞ楽しいことでしょうにね・・・！！&lt;br /&gt;夕方から海に泳ぎに行こうとしてたけど、着いた頃には真っ暗になってて結局泳げなかった・・・&lt;br /&gt;今日の夜ご飯はヌードルとバブルティー・・・二人分で合計日本円に換算すると２５０円。この安さ信じられます！？？&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-115742735227514357?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/115742735227514357/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=115742735227514357' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115742735227514357'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115742735227514357'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/i-got-up-very-late.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115742730940632908</id><published>2006-09-02T20:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-09-19T22:28:30.723-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>I arrived at Qingdao around 2:30pm, an hour and half before scheduled. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get off the ferry because it was not supposed to arrive until 4 pm. I really worried about going through immigration. (I hate to go through immigration.) I worried so much I was shocked when the immigration officer didn’t ask anything!&lt;br /&gt;My friend was supposed to pick me up. After I passed through immigration, I looked for him… but he wasn’t there! I waited about 1 hour by myself. Getting lonely. I forgot to take his cell number and his hostel address. I started to wonder what I should do if he didn’t show up. Find internet café? But I didn’t have any Chinese Yuan. I didn’t know what to do.&lt;br /&gt;I was sitting sadly in the station when I thought I caught a glimpse of him out the window. Was I dreaming? He did not come to the ferry terminal, but just passed by. I must have been dreaming. Still, I went out of the building to look for him… and I found him! He was walking to the ferry terminal, but he missed it and just kept walking. He was hung over! No… he was still DRUNK! He drank a lot the previous night. He woke up at 3:55 pm. Huh? His hostel was 20 minutes away and I was supposed to arrive at 4pm! It’s okay though. I was able to meet him!!After checking into the hostel, we went and ate a seafood dinner. It was good. And I didn’t get a stomachache! Then we walked along the ocean and saw the May Fourth Square (五四广场). Finally we went to club to dance with other friends. The dance floor was bouncing!! Sooooo fun!! We went back to the hostel around 4am…What a crazy first day in China!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ま～そんなんで青島には１６時着の予定が１４時半に着いてしまい・・・でも予定は４時着だったら船から下りることもできず、船の中で待たされました。結局下船したのは１５時半。心配したイミグレーションも何も質問されることなく問題なく通過！！&lt;br /&gt;フェリーの所に友達が迎えに来てるはずだけど・・・おいおい！来てないじゃないか～～！！ 一人孤独に異国の地で約１時間待ちましたよ！！だんだん心細くなってくるのね～ こういう時って・・・。いろいろ考えるわけですよ！どうするべきなのかを。インターネットカフェを探すべきか、・・・でも中国のお金はまったく持ってないし・・・。ドジなことに友達の携帯電話番号とホテルの住所を控えてくるのを忘れてしまったのであります・・・。とりあえず外に出てみて近くを歩いてみることに・・・。そしたら、向こうの方からその友達が歩いてくるじゃないですか！！ あ～～～よかった会えて！結局話を聞くと、昨夜飲みすぎて起きたのが３時５５分！ 約束は４時だったよね！？ 二日酔いの状態でフラフラでやって来たのでした。&lt;br /&gt;青島はシーフードがおいしいと有名なので寄るご飯に食べに行きました。食中り起こすのが怖かったけど・・・大丈夫でしたよ！ おいしかった！！&lt;br /&gt;それから別の友達と合流してクラブに踊りに行ったよ！！ 踊るフロアーにバネが付いててビョンビョン跳ねて超楽しかったぁ～～！！！結局ホテルに帰ったのは朝の４時・・・中国初日からなんてすごい１日でしょう・・・&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-115742730940632908?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/115742730940632908/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=115742730940632908' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115742730940632908'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115742730940632908'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/i-arrived-at-qingdao-around-230pm-hour.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115742724367662433</id><published>2006-09-01T20:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-09-19T22:28:04.280-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>I left Shimonoseki port to Qingdao, China today. Surprisingly the ferry trip was not bad. I used the lowest class, but I ended up getting a large space. I spent a lot of time reading books, playing Nintendo DS and sleeping.

You can speak Japanese very fluently.” “But… but… I am Japanese!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日、下関港から中国の青島港へ発ちました。いや～～、以外にフェリーでの旅も悪くなかったですよ。広いスペースも取れたし。フェリーではたくさんの本を読んだし、Nintendo DSもしたし、そしてたくさん寝た・・・。（旅行の準備で出発２日前はちゃんと睡眠取れてなかったからね・・・）フェリーの中で同じ部屋の日本人に日本語で質問したら、「日本語話せるだね。」「日本語上手に話しますね～。」って・・・おいおい私日本人なんですけど！（私が何も話さなかったからかもしれないけど・・・）&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33538983-115742724367662433?l=emikobaba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/feeds/115742724367662433/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33538983&amp;postID=115742724367662433' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115742724367662433'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33538983/posts/default/115742724367662433'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://emikobaba.blogspot.com/2006/09/i-left-shimonoseki-port-to-qingdao.html' title=''/><author><name>Amy-ko</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02916509864616308264</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/emikobaba/member_Baba.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33538983.post-115694946721862386</id><published>2006-08-30T07:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-08-30T09:53:01.343-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/1600/CIMG2082.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1532/3684/320/CIMG2082.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How messy my room is! 　私の部屋は旅行の荷物で散らかりまくり・・・&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have many things to do....but what should I do first?
