Lingyun, China
Hey Hey and a Big G'Day Toya
Today we headed back into Lor Yah or Loyer and then to Ling Yuin.
WOW, what a beautiful town. Again set amongst the hills but this town was so pretty and clean. We were met by one of Mandy's friends and I was taken to a beautiful little hotel beside the river.
Once again I got it well under half the price I should have.
We then headed to Mandy's friends place for a family dinner and then a walk around the town. I was in heaven. The place is known for its green tea and it has the world's largest tea pot and two tea cups. They are massive. I went from tea shop to tea shop trying different teas.
MMMMmmmm, I'm a lucky boy!
After Terry and Mandy left I sat on my balcony and had a couple of beers and just looked at this huge hill right before my eyes. Heaps of holes and trees here and there. Terry (Mandy and Luke's friend) wanted me to stay a few more days so he could show me around and take me through some more caves. It was tempting but I wanted to go visit Mandy's family and she had already told them I was coming.
Plus I plan on returning quite a few times in the future, I can take off for weekends to Ling Yuan on a Friday night.
Beers N Noodles Toya...shane
