... we slept in our bus, going nowhere! <br><br>His alarm went off around six in the morning and he roused a few others from their sleep! Simultaneously, a row of taxis joined the bus. One by one the taxi drivers hopped out! (Oh God! What's going on here??) They each took a bag from the bus and once again disappeared. Some of the helpers jumped into a passing white van. And a strange old man passed the bus, nonchalant, but walkin backwards up the road. We shrugged off ...

... br>Taiyuan mel byt pro nas jen prestupni stanice, ale nakonec jsme v nem stravili cele odpoledne. Taiyaun je vice nezmilionove mesto, prestavbu centra dokoncili pred 2 roky. Hlavni ulice je misty az dvanacti proudova dalnice. Nikde tu nikdy nedelaji nic maleho. Asi sem nejezdi moc turistu. Vsude na nas zirali a v obchodech se nas ani nesnazili moc natahnout, takze jsme tam vubec nesmlouvali. Zasli jsme na jidlo, do muzea umeni provnicie Shanxi a posedeli v mistnim parku.<br>

We get dropped off at the Qingxu service station at 2:30am. There's a 24hr convenient store, we find a row of plastic seats and tries to make it until the sun comes up. We have been on the road nonstop for 18 hours, have to wait 7 more hours before we can find a bed.

... of how tall it is. The third stop is from the bottom. By this time fog had lifted enough to see across. To get to the viewing spot one must walk through a park running along the river. The park was built to show materials used in the construction. A waterfall is made from stones used to show how they were cut and so forth. On the way back to the city we asked Lucy about a good place to eat and she ...

... v dost premrstene vysi a studentskou slevu nemaji (oni ji maji, ale s chuti vam vysvetli ze neplati pro cizince/dany typ prukazu/lidi co nejsou cinani/kdyz je venku osklivo) no proste des.

Being winter when we went, the park was basically disserted. But since it was cooler ...

... the "god" of war etc. Tonnes of historic buildings to visit including the first chinese bank. You can walk the town walls which is cool, One of the days I cycled to a temple outside of town which was from before the ming dinisty (very very old) I have decided that chinese is hard to learn, if you don't understand someone they will often start drawing the chinese character in the air, this is because when chinese have different ...
