Huang Long

caught a flight early in the morning for huanglong and jiuzhaigou.
Airport in Chuan Zhu Si town which is like 3k+ m above sea level. the landing was like nuthin, super smooth. when i got off, i freezed. and i mean freezed. they were selling winter jackets in the airport and gloves and oxygen tanks and what not. its that bad. i cant breath properly, the altitude plays with my head too.

grabbed a cab and headed for a lodging and huanglong. cabby was great. not that hes cheap, its normal price but hes a great fellow, settled everything for me. sent me for a local breakast 1st (where he bargained cheap food for me) and drove me around to all the hotels to find me a reasonable room cuz its peak period. anyway, found the lodging, ex but power, dropped my stuff and went off to huang long. has personal driver for 3 days yay.

Huang Long is famous for its 5 Cai Chi (5 colours pond), took a cable car up, then walked down. mostly u see forests and montains and the ponds. the ponds are rather impressive. other than that i personally dun tink theres much. its just walk and walk and walk.

Went back for an early rest, to prep for jiu zhaigou next morning.
