终于 zhōngyú at last
拉萨 Lāsà Lhasa
一路 yī lù the whole way
风景 fēngjǐng scenery
哎，坐了两天火车，终于到拉萨了！
āi ，zuò le liǎng tiān huǒchē ，zhōngyú dào Lāsà le ！
Ah, two days of riding the train, and we’ve finally arrived in Lhasa!
不过一路看风景，挺值的。草原，雪山，藏羚羊，都见到了。
bùguò yī lù kàn fēngjǐng ，tǐng zhí de 。cǎoyuán ，xuěshān ，zànglíngyáng ，dōu jiàndào le 。
However, seeing scenery the entire way was worth it. Grasslands, snow-capped mountains, Tibetan antelopes; we saw them all.
嗯。我们回去也坐火车吧。
ng4 。wǒmen huíqu yě zuò huǒchē ba 。
Yeah. Let’s take the train back as well.
哈哈，我也这样想。我们先去旅馆放行李，再去吃藏族小吃吧。
hāhā ，wǒ yě zhèyàng xiǎng 。wǒmen xiān qù lǚguǎn fàng xíngli ，zài qù chī zàngzú xiǎochī ba 。
Ha ha, I was thinking the same thing. Let’s go put our luggage in the hostel, and then go eat some Tibetan dishes.
