We did the way to Shaxi in bus, and we went again to Shangrila but this time with the sun: I think this time the munsun is finish or at least I hope. Shaxi is a small town lost in the mountain in the middle of valley. There are 11 small village of minorities all around and for the moment no tourist.
The Village has been renovated by a swiss university of architecture.
We went in Sha xi to meet Afang, a very nice lady that we met in Shangrila. She renovated an old house 150 years and she decorated like a 5 star hotel. As the hotel was not yet open (1st of October) and as she was very nice, we could all stay for 30 yuans (3 euros) per night.
As I know also that she was a very cook, and as my Chinese friends wanted to make a party for my birthday even before the day: I ask her to cook for us.
She had some Foie Gras and some white wine ( and plenty of other red wine) and she did a terrific diner one more time.
By now, I don t need really to do something for my birthday as first I don t know whee I will be and second it will be difficult to do something as great.
