3月份和十几个小伙伴一起，去河南焦作云台山旅行了一圈。
In March, I have visited Yuntai Mountain inJiaozuo, Henan Province, China with a dozen friends.
其实这并不是最好的时节，山还没有绿起来，水势也不大。而且赶上“妇女节”的优惠活动，票价便宜，景点里也挤爆了人，差点有一天晚上下不来山，旅途过程一言难尽、相当曲折。
It was not the best season for tourists inearly March since the trees were not green and water flow was relatively low. YuntaiMountain had a ticket price discount for celebrating the International Working Women’sDay, so the number of tourists was tremendously larger than usual. We even haddifficulty to go down the mountain. The experience was quite tortuous.
但这看似不可能、不圆满的旅程却留下了很多惊叹的回忆。
But beyond our expectation, the incompletetour left a lot of wonderful memory.
同游的摄影达人留下的光影记录又让人觉得生活中不是缺少美，而是缺少发现的眼睛。（还缺少某X，某外接镜头，某光圈控制软件，某剪辑软件，某修图软件，某审美素养......）
In our group, there was a girl who tookincredible pictures even the scenes seemed normal. So as the famous sentencegoes, it’s not the lack of beauty in life, but the lack of the eyes to find thebeauty. (Besides, compared to that girl, it is the lack of iphoneX, externalcamera lens, aperture control software, film editing software, photoshop,aesthetic taste and so on…)
还有善于发掘美食的小伙伴，爬山不好好爬，却翘班吃遍了整个小吃街，帮我们筛选出了最好吃的山药片、山药酱等等小食。我拿回家的伴手礼都让家里人决定再在某宝上多买点。
There was another girl who had no interestin hiking but she took most of her time to buy Food and have a taste in thefood street of the town under Yuntai Mountain. She recommended a kind ofChinese yam chips, a kind of source made by Chinese yam and other delicioussnacks so that we could take some home as souvenir. My parents liked them verywell and they even told me to find out if we could buy them on website.
小伙伴们熬夜不睡，玩桌游《犯罪现场》，本想好好逻辑推理、指认凶手，却常常掉进目击证人瞎指挥的坑里。最后变成一场大戏，拼谁是戏精本经。
When returned to the hotel, our friendsplayed cards such as the Crime Scene. The game was interesting. At the beginning,we were seriously playing to find “criminals”, but after a while, we becameactors and screenwriters to compete whose story was the best.
第二天自然怎么叫都不醒，直接睡到中午，而旅店老板娘一说饭做好了，这些小伙伴蹭蹭都起来抢食了，因为饭做得太好吃了，不抢就吃不上了。（旅店的家常菜好吃不贵，有很多当地带怀字头的食材，什么怀山药，怀地黄，后来我才知道怀是当地的古地名，怀庆府）。
It leads to sleeping in the next day. Manyfriends lied in bed until lunch was ready. Food was the stimulus for us to getup since the hotel manager had good cooking skills. If you went there late, youwould have nothing to eat.
整个旅途感觉很奇妙，玩什么都很乐呵，自己不玩看着别人玩也很乐呵。
So the overall tour was marvelous, whether Iwas playing or watching others playing, I felt joyful.
给大家看看我们在云台山的照片，此处要特别鸣谢摄影师琳琳。
