位於雲南省迪慶藏族自治州香格里拉縣的獨克宗古城，建於唐朝、擁有一千三百多年歷史、是中國保存最好、最大的藏民居群。它是茶馬古道的樞紐，亦是滇藏公路的必經之地。“獨克宗”藏語為“月光城”之意。可惜，在2014年1月11日的一場火災，毀了這古城三分之二的建築，也毀了它的歷史文化價值。雖然師傅和導遊都不推薦去參觀這“廢墟”，我們還是趁著回到酒店的時間還早，打的到月光廣場，逛逛獨克宗古城，也圓了大妹和藏獒合照的心願。

在梅里雪山過了一夜，原本規劃次日一早出發去明永冰川，但這往返就得耗上一整天，加上我們當日得趕回香格里拉，為了避免突發狀況而延誤接下來的行程，就決定次早直接折返香格里拉。
Our original plan of the second day at Meili Snow Mountain was to visit the Mingyong Glacier under Kawagebo Peak. But the whole journey might take about a day and we needed to turn back to Shangri-La the same day. To prevent any incidents that may delay our whole trip, we decided to skip visiting Mingyong Glacier and went back to Shangri-La in the morning.

來荷蘭這麽多年，我們多數是從國外給七月生日的婆婆祝賀生日。今年因選擇八月中旬才啟程，婆婆高興得很，決定來個一日遊慶生。選在週末，我們先到歐文隆參觀戰爭博物館。對於經歷過二戰洗禮的兩老，看到二戰的相片和錄影就不自覺地在對照記憶中的情境；對於年輕一代的我們來說就少了那份觸景傷情的感覺。從博物館出來，我們直奔提堡的美食時光Etenstijd享受豐富的晚餐。回到恩荷芬後，再到臨近的自然公園散步，為精彩的一天劃下句點。
Oma celebrates her birthday in July. This year, we’re not on board, so we’ve decided to have a family day by visiting Overloon War Museum and enjoying delicious buffet at Etenstijd in Tilburg.
