Continue to Bellagio, the music lake to listen to the music fountain is the best relaxation, today finally heard the classic "timesaygoodbye", ** when the melody sounds, the rows of fountains spray water spray is particularly shocking, one after another, wave after wave, the most spectacular wave is at least 30 meters high. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This time I entered the botanical garden on the first floor of Bellagio again, and like last time, I still thought that all the flowers and trees were too bright, I remember the first time I came to Yunluo thought it was a fake potted plant, and when I walked in, I found that it was all real, a little incredible, and I couldn't even find a leaf with wilting or insect moth.
To build such a fairy tale world with fresh plants and flowers, Las Vegas hotels are also hard enough.
In the morning, we left the casino and headed for the Death Valley National Park in the west, and did some temporary strategies, only to know that this is the largest national park in the continental United States (Yunluo had always thought that Yellowstone was the largest), so big that Yunluo and Yan Shenyu really walked around it for most of the day, and only hurriedly walked through some views.
When I arrived at the visitor center, I bought a ticket, got a map, and I didn't know how to choose how to go, and calculated 2∷ a little, w"ww. time, and planned a few places to see, first of all, of course, bad water, badwaterbasin, all saline-alkali land, vast desert, and the smell of death.
There must be no life on such a surface. It is also the lowest land elevation in the Western Hemisphere, and the lowest land elevation in the Eastern Hemisphere and the world is the Dead Sea on the border between Jordan and Israel.
Heading back from the Badwaterbasin, you can follow a one-way street, Artistsdr, to see ArtistPoint. The rocks are in different colors, which is very beautiful. The first viewpoint you will visit when entering Death Valley National Park, ZabriskiePoint, is full of bright yellow rocks that are folded in the ground.
In addition, Yunluo and Yan Shenyu's car was also stopped by the police car here and issued a ticket. It was the only time I had to deal with a traffic cop on my trip to the United States, and the situation was that Death Valley was sparsely populated and there were few vehicles. Coincidentally, the speed of a car in front of me is not fast or slow, and I always feel that it is driving slightly slower.
The super bar has always been a solid line, Jiang Ying couldn't help but step on the accelerator to overtake, and then the speed was a little too much, and then he suddenly found that a police car honked at Yunluo and Yan Shenyu, and he didn't know where the police car came out, so he pulled over in the parking lot of Zabriskiepoint, and the police slowly walked over.
Yunluo was in charge of acting as a translator and told them what the police wanted to express: 1. Overtaking on a solid line. 2. Overspeeding. 3. If you are not convinced, you can come to the police car to watch the video. It is also possible to appeal. Jiang Ying knew that he did not argue about the violation, and honestly waited for the police brother to register the information and issue a ticket, and finally the ticket was to be sent to his home.
If you pay by credit card, it's estimated to be at least $500. At that time, when the police returned to the police car to deal with some operations, Jiang Ying got out of the car to smoke, and a well-meaning Korean tourist next to him also reminded him that when the police issued a ticket to you, you had better stay in the car honestly, and it was not a wise move to get out of the car. Jiang ignored it.
It is estimated that the police are quite polite. Seeing that Yunluo and Yan Shenyu are Chinese tourists, they also know that Yunluo and Yan Shenyu will not bring guns or anything, otherwise the police will generally require you to sit in the car. Keep your hands on the steering wheel for him to see all the time.
Heading northwest, you'll find an abandoned borax processing plant, the Saltcreektrail, and a large sand dune, Mesquiteflatsanddunes, and plenty of hiking trails in Death Valley. It can't be reached by vehicle, Yunluo and Yan Shenyu's itinerary is too rushed, and many places can't go.
For example, the famous Dante's viewpoint. This national park is so large that it takes at least three days to get around, so it's best to visit in winter. Because it's really hot in the summer! Death Valley National Park is not too far from San Francisco and Los Angeles and is easy to get to, if you go to the West Coast of the United States next time.
I think I'll visit Death Valley National Park again, and at least I'll have to see the "Walking Stones".
At two o'clock in the afternoon, when I was already hungry, I found a supermarket at a gas rest stop not far from the sand dunes on Highway 190, and there was a Filipino aunt who was very nice.
In fact, it is very simple, it is to find an American to marry, and whisper to Yunluo, "American, greedy, notgood!" While enthusiastically helping Yunluo put the instant rice into the microwave to heat it, he smiled and watched Yunluo eat deliciously. However, the reason why the material living conditions in the United States are now superior.
Part of it is that it disproportionately occupies a significant portion of the world's resources.
Along Highway 190 and then to Highway 195 to leave Death Valley, it was already evening when they arrived at Helendale, Yunluo and Yan Shenyu were stunned that they did not find the bottle forest mentioned in the guide, and returned in a huff, and drove for more than an hour at night, arriving at a big city east of Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and using GPS to locate PandaExpress fast food restaurants to find Chinese food.
After eating enough, I will find a motel to stay, today is a very tiring day. The two partners temporarily decided to return the car in Los Angeles and drive Highway 1 to San Francisco, and their temporary decision also caught Yunluo off guard, because Yunluo's last ticket was from San Francisco, and Yunluo Xiaojie was also waiting for Yunluo in Tracy near the San Francisco Bay Area.
Yunluo had no choice but to take the Greyhound bus to Tracy at that time, but the extra time Yunluo and Yan Shenyu planned to go to San Diego, which proved to be a very wise choice, because San Diego is definitely the most Latin town in the town along the way.
San Bernardino is apparently best known for the world's first McDonald's, which is now the McDonald's Museum, with a variety of objects and photographs from different eras. It shows the growth of this fast food chain. The store was not marked on GoogleMap, and it took a lot of people to find it after driving around and asking a lot of questions.
Yunluo puts two photos here, if the friends want to find this museum, just take the photos and ask people, the general locals know.
End of the McDonald's Museum walk. Instead of going straight to Los Angeles along Route 66, he first went to San Diego in the south, a Latin town with a Mesoamerican style. San Diego has a lot to offer, such as the famous giant statue of the kiss at the end of World War II, and the oceanarium.
But Yunluo and Yan Shenyu didn't go, instead choosing to hang out in Balboa Park and San Diego, which has a cigar spot. As soon as you walk into the store, you will be overwhelmed by the strong aroma of cigars, which is very refreshing! I took two photos of my boss, which were very eloquent portrait photos that Yunluo felt were rare in the United States, when Yunluo was buying cigars.
He asked to show his ID, but Yunluo didn't take his passport in the car, so he had to play tricks and promise Yunluo and turn 18 years old. Americans are still very principled, unless you look like an old man. Otherwise, even middle-aged people have to show ID to prove their age, and the boss is definitely not a minor when he sees Yunluo.
Just ask Yunluo how old he is. Yunluo said that while he was holding a cigar, he suddenly asked Yunluo what year he was born, and Yunluo also quickly replied, and he smiled and said, "You passed the test!" ”
There are also former stables and post houses here. The florist, as well as the restaurant where the skeleton bride stands at the door to welcome her, is perfect for taking pictures, and there is a mini-world village near Balboa Park, made up of many small houses with small yards, each representing a country. And it is the most characteristic style of house architecture in that country.
Including those in China, I think that the houses in those countries in Europe are similar, and they are still unique in China, and they are particularly recognizable. In the late afternoon, I went to a more famous beach and found that the seagulls here are very fat. From San Diego, take California Highway 1 to Los Angeles.
Feeling the horror of the traffic jam in the evening rush hour, even if Yunluo and Yan Shenyu are multiple people who can take the inner road of the carpool, there are still times when they can't move, and they envy the freedom of the motorcycles roaring next to them. I arrived in Los Angeles after sunset, and I had a long detour to get to the pier near Santa Monica Beach at the end of Route 66.
Parking is expensive nearby, but there is a large parking lot on the north side of the pier that is slightly cheaper.
There is a debate about where the 66th finish is, and there is a small house on the pier that indicates where it is located, but Yunluo personally feels that the end of the pier is more sensitive, and there are many historical stories about this legendary road on the blackboard, including a photo of Forrest Gump's prototype Stancottrell when he finally ran here.
In the movie, Forrest Gump also ran here to turn back. Looking at the endless Pacific Ocean, the dark water at night, and the sound of the waves crashing on the reef, Yunluo's heart suddenly emptied, a little melancholy, just like that, a legendary highway, and then looking back there is a feeling of suddenly like a dream, it feels unreal.
Looking back on this journey, the most impressive thing is Monument Canyon, which is a dream trip. The next time I have the opportunity, I still hope to walk this road with an interesting partner, or an old friend, or a loved one, because the partner who travels with you is too important.
They continued to stay in Los Angeles, while Yunluo took the night Greyhound bus to Tracy in the Bay Area to find Yunluo Xiaojie, casually ate the last meal, and began to count the money, Comrade Lao Yu began to worry with Yunluo again, and even played a temper and said that he would not take Yunluo to the bus station, let Yunluo go by himself, Yunluo said that Yunluo paid for today's car rental.
Yunluo had the right to use it, he immediately lost his temper, and was very reluctant to drive Yunluo to the Greyhound bus stop first, and when he left, they were still like strangers, and said goodbye casually.
