... tired, and unsatisfied, I turned around and went back to the main trail.<br><br>Now for another decision: Take the overly priced cable car and call it a day or descend to the bottom for free? Take a wild guess which one I did. The rough, unmarked trail to the bottom was much longer than I thought it would be. I followed a creek, crossed it several times and used my best judgment to get to the bottom. It took about 2 more hours to descend and I still had to get back to the ...

... cat, and two dogs. The next day we walked the 6km or so to a cable car which you can take down. I made the second major loss of the trip when i left my glasses in the hostel. The walk is fairly easy and has some great views over the lake with the odd waterfall. One major bonus about Dali is the baozi (dumpling) places everywhere, i was beginning to get withdrawal symptoms having not had any since Xian!

... of the young chanting monk was at times accompanied by those of one or two teenage girls living in the monastery. We'd like to say their voices were divine and harmonious, but eight hours a day, breaking only for meals (before which the tune changed slightly from Aaaa-aa-aa-aa-mi-ii-to-o-o-o-fuuu to Amitofu, Amitofu, Ami-i-tofu, A-a-mi-i-tofu), is a long time to try and keep melody and harmony. So what, or ...

... a horse-drawn carriage ride, picked up a stalker, and investigated the other things that tourists could do - all of which we again vetoed due to cost. But Craig and I at least are the kind of travelers who often have more fun just wandering around, even getting lost sometimes, and our new friend Nadim seemed fairly happy to comply with this approach, too. Then it started to rain so we got the bus back to Dali where we met some super cute Chinese kids and their parents from ...

... traditional regalia of the local culture. Initially inconspicuous and ostensibly peddling brass jewelery and other tack, these grandmothers are quick to offer different goods after their first load of products are rebuffed. A quizzical "smoking ganja?" is whispered to surprised ears, and you're immediately confronted with one of the most bizarre images of a drug dealer imaginable. Apparently ...

Well, unfortunately the meal at the King World gave Cherry a bad case of food poisoning, and she was very unwell the following morning. As she was unable to do much more than get up to the bathroom, I spent the morning negotiating as best as I could with the hotel's reception staff for a late departure, as our train for Dali did not leave until 11 p.m. Even then, we'd have to leave the hotel at 6, and spend 5 hours ...

... had bought him in Kunming which was the red lanterns that you had lights in them that flashed on and off. We assembled them around his tree in his sqaure and they where an instant hit! It was a great night and with me Jelle being the only westerners drunk we became good mates. We finished the night off with loads of fireworks including holding roman candles with our hands which shot out into the starry nite. It was a good end with Chinese meaning; sending out the old year and ...
