Everyone has been more or less in a kind of rut: same job, same flat, same friends, same house chores, day after day, year after year. That’s probably the reason why we are so craving for travelling. Almost deep in every one’s heart, there is a the-world-is-so-big-I-wanna-see dream. Travelling, like a shining knight on a white horse, comes to break the routines and rescue us from the boredom.

However, 3 days holiday trip always send us to a headache dilemma. To be or not to be, that’s a question.  Terrible traffic, over-crowded tourist attractions, that even makes being fleeced by hotel and restaurant the bottom item in the worried about list. If I have a better option, I would never choose this time to go out.  However, I don’t.

With a school boy at home, weekend has just mean a trip from one extended learning program to another. I’ve been longing for an escape from the hustle and bustle of city. And I really need a break, need to breathe salutary mountain airs. However this Monday when I was trying to book a hotel in Qingchen Mountains and found that several hotels I liked had already fully booked during Labor Day. I could almost imagine that terrible scenery that day:  it seems that the whole city was rushing out of the town at the same time, and traffic jam was seemed to last forever. I shudder at this thought. Still at last, I worked up my courage to make a reservation. Let’s just hope and pray!
