... 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 ...

Before arriving in Yichang my son said to keep things simple in this city. As soon as we arrived yesterday we went to the concierge and asked about a tour to the 3 gorges dam. The concierge told us that we could sign for the tour right then. We did paying our 200 yuan on the spot. The only way to see the dam is via an official tour. A little later the confcierge told us that the tour would be a chinese led ...

... jsme v Cine navstivili. Cestu sem jsme naplanovali tak nejak vseobecne v ramci cestovani po Shanxi v domeni, ze tu preci neco zajimaveho byt musi, kdyz je to hlavnismesto provincie. Neni.

On our first day after arriving on the train into Xian, we headed up onto the ...
