Yangtze River
... in a bar in Yangshou for free drinks. Unfortunately I've forgotten almost the entire repetiore of the Davies/Hagerty Experience and I'll be expected to sing. This will not go well... We finished the night playing a popular Chinese game with block pieces. I've completely forgotten the name but whenever Chinese gambling dens are shown in films it's this game they always play. The version we played was simple enough once you can count to nine in Chinese. It's pretty similar to ...

I slept the whole night... at last
... cars, and construction work is omnipresent, like the majority of cities in China. There are hostels everywhere, small shops, street vendors etc. The city doesn't feel as crowded as Beijing, but the pollution feels about the same.
