356. Glacier off-road
The afternoon sun shines warmly on the glacier, and the folds are shining brightly.
The convoy drove to the National Park Administration, which was not the entrance to the park, but a checkpoint, where some snowmobiles and off-road jeeps were parked at the door, and a team was being inspected as they prepared to enter the glacier and drive on the ice sheet.
Kerui took the ice mining permit issued by the Liuying town government and went to the queue for inspection, while Chen Song was ready to get out of the car and take a walk.
Although the RV has a large space, it is still too aggrieved for Brother Bai, and he also wants to get off with it.
Chen Song didn't dare to release it here, there were too many people, it would cause unnecessary trouble, he brought Brother Bai this time because Brother Bai was a polar bear after all, and now it was hot, he had to take Brother Bai to stay on the glacier for a few days.
So Angelina took the initiative to take over Brother Bai, and Chen Song was a little unconfident: "Can you take care of this hob meat?"
Angelina smiled: "Leave it to me, Becky is my hand, Brother Bai and Becky are both animals, there should be no difference." ”
The aura in the hinterland of the glacier is even more abundant, Chen Song got out of the car and casually found a place to close his eyes and run the qi, and then he felt that there was no place outside his body that was not rich in aura.
Moreover, the aura of Vatnajökull is different from that of the town, the aura in the town is light and active, while the aura in the glacier area is cold and clear, and the aura of the qi absorbs the aura and runs for a small week and almost turns into ice.
Just as he was enjoying this unusual inspiration, someone from behind him called out, "Hi, sir, are you Chinese?"
Chen Song put away his qi and opened his eyes to look, and saw a pair of young couples with black hair and black eyes smiling at him, so he nodded and said, "Yes, Chinese, you too?"
The young man enthusiastically stretched out his hand and said: "Yes, my name is Hou Wenyong, this is my object Liang Wenyong, I am very happy to meet our fellow countryman in Iceland." ”
After listening to his introduction, Chen Song was stunned: "You two have the same name?"
Hou Wenyong smiled even brighter, revealing his white teeth and glowing like a glacier: "I am Wen Yong of Wen Tao and Wu Yong, and my object is the aria of Yong, haha, the pronunciation is the same." ”
In this way, Chen Song was happy and said: "Then you are really fateful, the god named by this parent." ”
Hou Wenyong said: "Actually, it's not, I changed my name after I met my object, hehe, it was the same." ”
Chen Song: ┓(′?')┏
Liang Wenyong asked curiously: "Sir, are you also here to participate in the glacier cross-country?" It seems that I haven't seen you on the road, I knew that there are my own people in the same company, and we should contact them in advance. ”
Chen Song waved his hand and said, "No, I came here with a friend to get ice." ”
As he spoke, Angelina walked over.
Although it was the height of summer at the end of July, the temperature in Glacier National Park was low, and Angelina was dressed up in tight overalls to facilitate her work, and it was a little cold to walk outside, rubbing her hands as she walked.
Seeing this, Chen Song took off his jacket and draped it on her.
Angelina smiled: "I'm not too cold, but my hands are a little cold when I played with ice cubes just now." ”
Chen Song asked, "How is Brother Bai?"
Angelina said: "It fell asleep, I gave it a massage, and it slouched asleep. ”
Chen Song looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Didn't you knock it out?"
Angelina squeezed her eyes at him mischievously and said, "It's good to know, don't say it." Of course, in fact, this is impossible, Brother Bai's neck is thicker than my waist, and its ability to resist blows is beyond my imagination. ”
Hou Wenyong and the others looked at them curiously, so Chen Song introduced Angelina.
Knowing that the two of them were here for a glacier off-road, Angelina's sense of responsibility burst out, and she advised: "You must be careful, this kind of polar expedition is only suitable for experienced people, if you have not set foot on a glacier before, then the leader who will follow you in the end." ”
Hou Wenyong said: "We understand this, it should be fine, right?"
Angelina said, "It should be fine, but be careful of accidents. There are many cracks in the ice sheet, which are covered with ice and snow and it is difficult to see, and if you are not careful, you will fall down. Luckily, it's August and there won't be a blizzard, if it's in the winter then there might be a blizzard, it's a nightmare!"
Speaking of this, her face showed a palpitating expression, her long eyelashes trembled, and Chen Song's heart fluttered.
Liang Wenyong asked curiously, "Have you ever done glacier off-road before?"
Angelina said: "Yes, I did two glacier rescues with the rescue team during my internship, and then I told myself that you are not an adventurous person. ”
Chen Song introduced: "Anna is a policeman and works in Liuying Town, so you can go around the town on your return trip, which is very leisurely and very good." ”
Hou Wenyong said happily: "Okay." ”
Liang Wenyong was frightened by Angelina's words, she pulled her boyfriend's sleeve and said, "What's the point of driving on the glacier?
Hou Wenyong shook his head and said: "It's not good, we may come to Iceland once in our lives, since we have arrived at the world's third largest glacier, how can we not enter its hinterland and have a close contact with it?"
Saying that, he opened his arms and hugged the glacier, and said: "It is said that there is still a sea in the glacier, and when the time comes, we will hug together to watch the beautiful scenery when the white icebergs reflect the sun exceptionally brightly, go rowing in the pale blue bay surrounded by the glacier, and watch the large ice floes float by, how beautiful!"
Angelina also said: "The fact that glacier off-boarding does have a different experience than other forms of travel, and it can be a huge thrill, and I think you'll remember that feeling in your lifetime." ”
Liang Wenyong sighed lightly: "I'm not interested, I want to go to the ice cave in the glacier, but unfortunately I can't make an appointment." ”
The ice cave is the most beautiful sight on the Vatnajökull Glacier, a land of ice and snow deep underground, but in order to protect this unique landform, the national park is only allowed to 200 people a year.
And before entering the ice cave, you have to make an appointment, and it is said that the reservation call has been lined up for twenty years......
While they were chatting, Corey finished the formalities and checked, and he waved and shouted from afar, "OK, Vince, Anna, let's go!"
Chen Song politely shook hands with Hou Wenyong and said goodbye, he left his phone number to the little couple, and said: "Call me if you have a problem, they are all fellow villagers, I will definitely not say anything if I can help." ”
Hou Wenyong said happily: "Thank you, Brother Song." ”
The place where Corey takes the ice is not in this glacial area, but on the edge of the glacier lagoon.
The Jökulsárlón is a 25-square-kilometre lagoon that originates from a glacier leading to the Atlantic Ocean, where there are a lot of animals and birds, and seals can be seen.
