Chapter 1207 1207. Around (15)

On the map, Nevada is a vast and almost uninhabited desert, dotted with some small towns, they were born in the era of the great western adventure, built by miners.

Especially in the eastern part of the state, because Las Vegas is well-known, more people know how deserted and deserted it is, but there are few wetlands.

Little is not no, the wetland here is Lake Mead.

Because of its unique status, the Nevada state government deliberately built a national amusement park here. This is a very vast field, including Lake Mead with a length of 110 miles and Lake Mohave with a length of 67 miles.

Li Du is somewhat interested in this wetland, which is a rare sand-water terrain in the world. That is to say, there is a desert next to the wetland, and there is no transition between them. The Great Lake and the desert are neighbors.

Driving on the Hwy93 highway, I saw a tall building shortly after leaving the city. This is the Allen Baiber Visitor Center, which specializes in providing entertainment and life information in the amusement park.

The best way to visit this amusement park is on foot and by bike.

Li Du and the others do as the Romans do, and plan to rent bicycles to enjoy the pleasant scenery around Lake Mead.

Hans shook his head: "I won't do it. If you want to ride a bicycle, you can do whatever you want. I will drive. The sightseeing route of Lake Mead is thirty-two miles. My good guys, this is thirty-two miles!"

Li Du said disdainfully: "Then you can take root in the car, but as a brother, I still have to suggest you, exercise more, look at your body, how has it been ruined by alcohol and sex?"

Hans thought about it, and honestly got out of the car and changed to a bicycle.

Li Du and Sophie rode a tandem bicycle with bags on their backs, Gan Crispy Mian and Ah Meng stayed inside, and the other three boys ran and jumped behind.

Many people in the scenic area brought pets, but none of them brought big cats or kangaroos, which quickly attracted a lot of attention.

When many children saw them, they would point and shout excitedly: "Look, kangaroo!" "It's a tiger cat, we just learned it in nature class..."

Li Du accelerated, and the bodyguards followed suit without any effort.

Hans kept yelling from behind: "Don't, don't, take it slow, hehe, I can't breathe, I can't breathe, ahhh!"

Starting from the Visitor Center, there are two scenic roads around Lake Mead, named North Shore Path and Lakeside Path. Among them, the Lakeside Path is the longest, and you can ride down to another beautiful scenic spot, Valley of Fire State Park.

Valley of Fire State Park is a masterpiece in the desert landscape, full of grotesque sandstones and wonderful desert life exhibitions.

But that wasn't Li Du's goal. After turning around Lake Mead, they were going to the Hoover Dam.

Today is a day for sightseeing. When we drove to the Hoover Dam, the winding and slender waterfront appeared, in stark contrast to the surrounding bare terrain.

They bought tickets to step onto the Mike O'Callaghan-Pat Dillman Memorial Bridge, a bridge with a walkway from which Li-Doo stood and looked around, offering a perfect view of the upper reaches of the Hoover Dam.

Sophie refused to go on the bridge, shaking her head again and again: "No, I won't go, it's too scary."

The bridge spans the river, and the bridge deck is very high across the water. Looking down, it is the turbulent water flow, which makes people dizzy.

Li Du beckoned and said, "Come on, the scenery here is very beautiful, and you don't have a fear of heights, you are very slippery when flying."

"No, I don't have a fear of heights, and I don't like this kind of place either." Sophie still shook her head.

The cats wanted to run up curiously, but Sophie grabbed them and reprimanded them, "Honestly, if you lose your balance and fall... oh my god!"

As soon as she finished speaking, someone jumped from the bridge into the water.

Li Du was startled, thinking that someone threw himself into the river, but after one person jumped down, another person jumped down behind him, like dumpling, five or six people jumped down in a row.

On the bridge, there were still people holding cameras or mobile phones to take pictures and cheering: "Oh, beautiful! The Chinese team entered the water posture!" "Haha, that idiot Kyle, is this a **** drowning?"

Seeing this scene, Li Duming realized that these young people were playing high-altitude diving.

"It's really dead." He said angrily.

The bridge deck was at least 30 meters above the water, Sophie didn't even dare to go up, but several young people took off their clothes and jumped down.

There was a security room at one end of the bridge. Seeing what these young people were doing, the security guard rushed out and shouted anxiously: "What are you doing? What are you doing? You bastards, get out!"

High-altitude diving is an extreme sport. Many people have accidents every year. Foreign youths like this kind of sport very much. Sometimes Li Du thinks that this is also the reason for the small population of foreign countries: there are more people who die, how can the population increase?

The young people got into the car laughing and running, and even Li Du and the others were unlucky. The security guards watched them, preventing them from jumping like the young people.

Hans moved, and asked, "Jump down?"

Li Du rolled his eyes at him: "If you miss, go yourself, I won't stop you."

Hans said disdainfully: "How many meters is this? I participated in a high-altitude stunt diving competition in Los Angeles. I jumped from a special steel platform with a height of 48 meters."

"Also, when I was in Mexico, there was a traditional cliff diving competition. The cliff was 60 meters high, and the sea was below. It was very enjoyable. Jumping down was like a bomb. God, just thinking about it makes me so excited." He said more and more The more vigorous and enthusiastic.

Li Du beckoned, led Brother Wolf and the lunatics up, and forced Hans to push towards the bridge: "Come, come, I'll help you jump off."

"Fack!" Hans yelled.

Sophie was terrified: "Don't be kidding, what kind of joke is this kind of place?"

Li Du let go, Hans stopped blowing this time, and ran across the bridge honestly.

In the evening, they went to the nearby township, which is a small town formed around the scenic spot, mostly immigrants, and more immigrants later turned into a town.

The town takes scenic spots as its selling point, and naturally it is mainly engaged in tourism-related industries, so food and accommodation are particularly developed.

Li Du and the others found a western restaurant, which is famous for its rooster and pork, as well as fresh freshwater fish from the Colorado River, which is rich in ingredients.

In addition, there are many types of beer. The seats in this restaurant are made of oak beer barrels, which are printed in the same style as the gold rush era in the West.

The restaurant is best known for its homemade baked goods and oatmeal pancakes, which the townsfolk line up for.

After a leisurely stroll outside for a day, they went back to the hotel and waited for the elevator, and when they were taking the elevator, a few big men walked up unsteadily. When they saw them, they suddenly asked, "Mr. Li from Phoenix?"

Li Du couldn't help smiling when he saw them, and said, "Yes, who are you?"

He didn't know these people, but he had seen them.
