27/9 Day 99 Grand Canyon National Park (Arizona)
Finally get here! And this is also the Mid-Autumn Festival of Chinese. Super-full moon, Eclipse & Sunrise… A perfect festival. By the way I miss the mooncake a little bit旅程已近100天,終於來到另一個細細個就聽過的:大峽谷國家公園。
特地調整了行程,在中秋節的正日來到露營地點。正在準備晚飯時,收留我的Chuck (露營區老早滿了,但Chuck讓我待在他的營地)大喊著:『Wai, Eclipse!』
我完全聽不明白,到底Eclipse是甚麼鬼東西。到Chuck指著頭上的月亮時我才知道:是月蝕!
而且還是中秋的超級滿月月蝕啊啊啊!看到我對著月亮發呆的樣子,Chuck笑呵呵地回到自已的露營車中。以前我也不知道,原來月蝕整個過程可以維持超過一個小時!
接下來的還有滿月下的幽谷景致,以及晨曦從峽谷中迸射出的壯麗景色:這個地方真的太美好了!1/10 Day 103 Flagstaff (Arizona)
After visiting the Grand Canyon, it comes to the end of my National Park journey. Now I am taking a rest in a small town Flagstaff, taking a rest & try to get some repairing job done to the bicycle (Actually I need to fix something as early as in Canada, but I was tooooo lazy to do so). A big thanks to my host joseph to let me stay in his place in Flagstaff for such a long time!
Flagstaff is the south entrance of the Grand Canyon, and it is definlately a beautiful town. One more thing I love about this place is, I have a Chinese lunch buffet for us$8 only!!!

Em… my stomach is too full that I feel painful now…完成Grand Canyon 的旅程後,Arizona餘下的行程都是遊走在一些小鎮中。趁著有閒暇的時間,把白日夢號送到了當地的單車店中進行大維修(畢竟算上澳洲等旅程的話,白日夢號已跑了近20,000公里的路,有的保養老早在加拿大就要做了),而自己也乘機偷懶一下。
作為Grand Canyon的門戶,Flagstaff是一個相當漂亮的小鎮。另一個令我愛上這地方的原因是,在這裏我居然以不到60元港幣的價格吃到了一頓超-豐富的自助餐!
除了炒面炒飯等的例牌外,自助餐的菜單還有4,5款例湯、煎大蝦、各種水果拼盤、蛋白釀螃蟹(我吃了3隻!!!)等等等--這可是我看到過最有誠意的平民自助餐啊啊啊啊!
有接一來的一個多小時,除了拿食物以外基本上我也沒停下過「吃」這個動作(結果離開時可以清楚地看到胃袋腫了一塊就是了……)。4/10 Day106 Anthem (Arizona)
Feel like have been arrived at Mexico already! And I guess I will be there at the Middle of Oct! It should be a totally new world to me!
看到墨西哥的地標了!但會先在鳯凰城停下(看NBA,吃好東西,頹廢,為單車作最後檢查……),預計10月中左右才會正式進入墨西哥吧?到時候上路會近4個月呢!
