A Whole Day on a Train
Apr 17, 2006

... have a clue but I'm pretty sure it's further than the 1500km that this journey would take - a small hop on terms of China as a whole. I slept pretty well though even with the lower bunk of 3 (everyone sits on the bottom bunk during the day) but looking ...

... washing was dry again, I stopped for some more Chinese pizza stuff (dabing perhaps it is called?) before getting the bus to Liuzhou. Having tired of walking in the wrong direction out of bus stations I jumped on the back of a motorbike taxi to get to ...

We had an early start from our beautiful guesthouse to the local bus station, where we would continue our journey to Liuzhou. We were thinking we'd be travelling rough, as we had started using local public buses rather than private minivans, and we weren't ...

Well here we are in China, in a city called Liuzhou. It's a largely industrial city with about 1.5 million people living here. It's strange to think that there's about a quarter of New Zealand's population living in a place I've never even heard of and is ...

May 29, 2008

We had a day of travel to Liuzhou. It was about a 4 hour drive to get to the train station. The bus was TINY too. When we got to Liuzhou, we had about 2 hours before our train arrived. So, Terry took us to find some food. The first place he was going ...

Today we jumped on a public bus and went to Liuzhou which is a "typical" Chinese city and definitely off the tourist trail!! On the way there we went through the most modern city I have seen, every building (no exaggeration) was less than 10 years old and ...

I'm on the train to Guilin now. I got a soft sleeper from Zhangjiajie. Before I get ahead of myself, let me sum up how things ended up going with the tourguide in zjj. At first things weren't so bad. I was ind of happy that I found a place to stay in ...

A travel day, from Ning Ming to Liuzhou, via Nanning. About 9 hours travelling on public buses. We headed out to the bus station at about 8am and I wasn't looking forward to the two bus journeys that it was going to take to get us from Ning Ming to ...

A busride, a wedding and drunk people
Oct 26, 2007

After leaving the village in the morning, we headed for Liu Zhou, a 'small' city in China (still bigger than Auckland ...). We took public buses to get there, and with all the karaoke I was reminded immediately to Cambodia ... In the evening ...
