Travelog for: Brontus

I was at Nankai Univeisity，living with my flatmate Alto.
Alto is from Florida the states. He was a private language school English teacher, and now after married a Chinese dongbei girl,he is working on his own English study website.
"Most dinosaurs are born in the spring" he said,but I was born in October,I'm a Libra!

I went to Beijing with my flatmate, I was so excited,I mean I had never been to Beijing before.
Well I just saw the movie "The Last Emperor",directed by Bernardo Bertolucci.That is my favorite since ever,although Zhang ziyi was not in the movie.
But Alto left me in the middle of the city, 2km to the Forbidden City.
...
He had a strange dream that night,I heard from my close friend Mia.
"
Last night I had a very strange dream. In my dream there was a number which repeated over and over and over. In the morning I awoke and wrote it down.

39.89250484497514, 116.39473378658295

The numbers seemed familiar. I put them into google maps. Aha!

Not able to shake the feeling left from my dream, I went to the place the map showed, found myself on a street perpendicular to and not far from da shi lan xijie and another small street called xiaochunshu hutong, except the "g" was missing from the sign, like this: 'huton'.

At the corner of this street, a sign which showed toilets. Also, here, a wall of ivy, and a small square building.

The sun peaked through the low buildings, supple morning light over the cool concrete. It felt like I was being pulled by something. I went down this small road and soon, passed a bad-smelling restroom, a small hotel. There was a building on the left with a roof covered in grass.

It seemed like my dream was telling me where to go, such a strange feeling.

The road met a wall, another small street, yuanxing. I knew I was close to something. I looked around.

Here, at the place where these two streets met, a number on the wall: 13911354274.

Hmm.

There was also a pole at the corner attached to a concrete block, and a small bike tire behind it against the wall.

This was the place, the place from my dream.

I reached behind the pole and moved some of the bricks...."

Whatever, thanks him I met Mia and my new friend Maomao.
Living with beautiful young lady is much more better than sharing a room with Alto!

I visited Mia's uni, these photos were taken on the way back home.

That is a haunted house!

I have no idea why Mia did building surveying in such a creepy house. There is a rumor that some dead bodies are still laying in the torture room hiding in basement.

Guess where i am

I went hiking with Mia and her fellow students,we also cruised along beautiful Rhein river.
Weißburgunder is so tasty!

We got to the Messel Fossil Site by train.
It is one of the UNESCO Natural Heritage sites.
I saw tons of relatives of me, but they all turned out to be stones...

We took a stroll around the town and visited Ravensburg Art Museum.
It has energy-efficient interior construction and historic appearence.

My old buddy Alto just told a story to Mia on wechat.
It's about me,it's my story!
"
Brontus the Brontosaurus was born in Shanghai on October 11, 2009. His best friend was Tagmore, the Triceratops. Brontus and Tagmore spent a few years eating trees and grass together in Shanghai, playing and making games, but Brontus wanted to know what else was out there. One day, in 2012, he met a strange traveler named Alto Ray. Together they traveled around the south of China and had lots of adventures.

Brontus didn't meet many dinosaurs on their journey and wondered why. In Kunming, Alto introduced him to a very old and smart Dinosaur, the knowledgeable Professor Apatus. The professor told Brontus that there were many dinosaurs left in the world, but most of them were very far away. He gave him a list of their fax numbers. So, Brontus found his dream: to meet other dinosaurs from around the world, talk to them and maybe take a photo, for memory.

Alto realized he couldn't help Brontus follow his dream, so he introduced him to a new friend, Mia. They became best friends and decided to travel together and share the adventure.
