Chasing the Sun
... When I was talking to Kelly she said she was expecting more rural areas and instead everything is just being built up and under construction and nothing like she expected and I agree. I think it has some nice parts and if I came back I would definitely see more of the country side but I won't miss it. Especially the spitting, smoking, traffic, pollution, the hole-in-the-ground toilets, babies peeing in the streets through their butt flaps and the awful food I keep seeming to ...
Shoes and shrines: looking southward from Kunming
... little tourism guns. When we reached the Dragon Gate, it took us a while to work out that this was the place.

Day 3 - The 29th. We placed a little note on the noticeboard before leaving for Green Lake ...

Now on this day every year people eat zongzi in his memory, and have dragon boat races too. Strange, huh? I also noticed that google, not Hong Kong google, but regular old US google had a picture of the Zongzi. Nice shout-out google.
