A Quiet Walk Around Town - not a beer in sight!
Thursday, August 24, 2006
Yangshuo, China
* written 4th October *
Ok, time for the gibberish.
I woke around 4pm full of life.
I headed out and walked out into the fields for a few hours taking photos. It was just as beautiful as the first time I arrived in Yangshuo. The town itself has grown and added many neon's, a KFC and other horrid things that happen to over crowded tourist towns but when you leave the town and head out into the farm lands your breath is taken away.
It is simply stunning!
The end of the walk of course let to MC Blues where I relaxed and watched a DVD with some Swedes and soon I could here a crowd of people calling my name from down stairs. The Londoners had arrived and Derrick had a beer waiting on the bar for me. It was time to begin the night.
And a HUGE night it was.
I stumbled home around 8am waving and saying my morning's quota of Hellooow prior to going to bed. The morning street market was up and running so I stopped for a bowl of noodles before hitting the pillow until some time in the late afternoon when I would rise once again and venture out into the darkening streets of Salem's Lotshuo!
Beers N Noodles to ya...shane
