Back on the saddle again and time to reload the trailer. We had a late start to the day because we had to rest. Eventually we got on the road, but we had to pedal hard out to the post office to receive the equipment from Decathlon in a town outside of Hefei. Once we arrived at the China Post, we had to battle with "Chung Li" who was not in a good mood and she was making it very difficult for us to receive the equipment. I told her that I thought she could use a hug and eventually we won her over. 又回到踏板上,又装上小拖车,我们今天出发的比较晚,因为需要休息。不过我们终于还是上路出发了,我们必须努力的骑到合肥城外的一个邮局去接收迪卡侬寄来的新装备。当我们抵达邮局,我们不得不和“权利”做斗争,那个人情绪不好,搞得很麻烦,难以接收这些装备。我告诉她可以拥抱一下,最终我们赢了。 The distance of this leg was only 80 km from Hefei to Lu An; however, we made several pit stops in several communities. During our first stop we were surrounded by several children. Unfortunately, we can't give everyone a ball, but we are trying to promote the idea of sharing within each community to instill the principles of play. 从合肥到六安只有80km,我们还是在几个社区做了短暂的停留。今天的第一停被很多孩子围了过来。不幸的是,我们不可能给他们每人一个球,但是我们试着到每个社区给他们宣传大众娱乐、人人共享的概念。 Sport and play is chaotic espeically at the beginning stages when we are young and experimenting with our friends. Balls are flying all over the place and hitting us in the face。Children are knocking down flower pots and parents are getting angry. These are the elements that make play fun and teach kids how to co-exist with one another. There are many lessons that are taught through sport and play; teamwork, respect for others, communication and fair play which we are witnessing at it's beginning stages throughout our travels. 体育和运动是个吵吵闹闹的事,尤其是当我们都很年轻时,刚刚开始和朋友们学着玩的时候。球到处乱飞,而且会砸到别人的脸。孩子们常常会打坏花盆,父母们会因此生气。这些东西让体育变得有趣,也教会了孩子们怎样去与其他人合作。体育运动中会教我们很多东西:团队合作、彼此尊重、沟通和公平竞赛,这些在我们旅途的一开始就不断的见证着。 Today we will be heading to Gu Shi, a city located in the province of Henan. We have cycled over 600 km, but our adventure has only begun....Until next time, Jiayou!
今天我们将前往固始,这是河南的一个城市。我们骑行了600多公里了,但是我们的冒险之旅刚刚开始···加油!
