9. July, 2010Kanas lake view The lake view was rewarding enough, and the white peak to the right is the friendship peak, where China, Kazakstan, Russia and Mongolia all meets. Utsikten over innsjøen var tilfredsstillende nok, og den snøkledde fjelltoppen til høyre er stedet Kina, Kazakstans, Russlands og Mongolias grenser møtes.

Vi kom ikke noe nærmere "Vennskaps fjelltoppen" denne gangen, men vennskapet mellom brødre når nye høyder.

Vi bestemte oss får å gå tilbake halvparten av den distansen vi var kommet på hesterygg. Denne gangen kunne vi ikke sette vår lit til de stakkars økene.

Akkurat som vi trodde vi definitivt hadde lagt sivilisasjonen bak oss igjen, så kom vi til en butikk (/bar?) som ikke bare var velassortert, innehaveren var veldig trivelig og hadde mye lavere priser enn nede i masse/pakk-turist området.

This elderly couple, who was parents of 8 children (for the Kazak minority, the chinese 1-child policy is not so strictly enforced), were our host. Nok en gang gikk vi for enkel innkvartering. Dette eldre ekteparet, som var foreldre til 8 barn (ettbarnspolitikken er nok ikke så streng for kinesiske minorieter), var vertsskapet vårt.

Jeg syr igjen ett hull i shortsen, mens familiens yngste datter (19) lager pasta.

"Hva du ser er det du får", tørket fåreskinke, hjemmeystet smør, fersk melk (sammen med salt te), og en gryterett med kjøtt og elementære grønnsaker (+ett glass med chili som Tor Anders introduserte til familien).

For dem som er lei av støyende storbyliv må dette være reneste paradiset. Written by Shanghaiet @ 19:29. 0 comment(s) Yet another family member This young lamb is a mere 3 days old. Dette unge lammet er bare knappe 3 dager gammel.

Noen avskjeder er vanskeligere enn andre, selv etter bare 1 dag, så føltes det vanskelig å ta avskjed med denne familien/ dette stedet.
