... poder banarme.

El dia salio mas bien nublado. Habia llovido durante la noche. Sin embargo, segun me fui acercando al lago, las nubes se fueron abriendo para dejar paso a los rayos de sol.

Por el camino, me tuve que parar varias veces para observar mas de cerca a los trabajadores de los campos. Un par de ellos estaban desgranando unas hieras altas y finas y dejando el grano a un lado de la carretera para que se secase. Me acerque un poco mas, abri uno de ...

... voit de bien loin. On a même vu un paysant creuser des sillons avec une charrue tirée par son boeuf, comme nos colons faisaient il y a 400 ans, intense.

Le transport a aussi été le théâtre d'un autre truc tout aussi perturbant, encore un témoignage du grand savoir vivre des chinois. Ça faisait 2h qu'on roulait, et un kid de 15 ans en avant du bus s'éprend soudainement d'une envie d'uriner. Pas de problème, le chauffeur lui explique qu'il peut aller aux ...

... email is: yhatyrj@yahoo.cn if you are in the area, go check it out. We headed toward town trying to find a minibus back to town. It is supposed to be 4 yuan per person. We came to a crossroads and it did not seem obvious to us where to go. We saw tour buses, tuk tuks, horse and carts and taxis, but nothing that looked like public transit back to Old Dali. We started walking further into town and a taxi driver was willing to take us back for 20 yuan. Bill ...

... back of a horse and my ass was incredibly sore by the time we reached the top. Once at the top we hiked along the mountain face for about 13kms before loading back onto the horses and heading down the hill. Completely exhausted from the journey, we spent the remainder of the day watching a movie and drowning our pain in Dali beer. Day 11 - Dali - Monday, December 8th We spent our last day in Dali at the lake. After wandering through the dirt roads ...

... hospitality! If someone pours you a full cup of tea, its a sign of disrespect, on the contrary, a full glass of wine means they like you very much! Such symbolism!! The highlight of the day was undoubtedly being shown how to play Ma Zhan (sp?!) in the Ma zhan rooms in the back of the tea house- its a Chinese game played with tiles- kind of like the domino tiles and the games kind of like a more extreme gin rummy..! Three suits, thirteen tiles each, but you can grab tiles off the ...

... skin is clean and radiant despite the fact that I ran out of face moisturizer in March. Amanda joked in Thailand that I have the world traveler glow. Maybe so. I am in perfect health, never mind the street stall rice-noodle-rice-noodle diet for the past couple of months. I sleep well and wake up at 7. I may have discovered my best beautification recipe yet - no work, no stress, new town at least once a ...

... when we finally make a break for it. Great fun, but the hangover was brutal. On our last day we head up unto them-thar-hills, forgoing the luxury of the chairlift we stomp up the hill climbing over 500m in an hour. This gets you about 1/4 of the way up the mountain, where a path has been built that traverses the ridge. It turns out to be a great day, especially climbing up along the taoist stream to a series of pools.

... morning" - yummy breakfast of wheat noodles with cabbage and soy sauce (dont knock it til you've tried it) then an energetic bike ride before catching an old rusty boat that took us across Er Hai lake to another small town, the home of tie-dye. Once safely on land we mounted a horse-drawn carriage complete with bells and a decrated horse. All very jolly until you realised that the horse was buckling under the weight of 8 people including two six ft 2 strapping ...
