My Travels

This is a day by day journal, so in the future I can look back and reflect on my experiences and those I have shared them with.

I had booked a guide for the day to show me round the local area by bicycle. Me, the guide and two others set out and headed up one of the riverbanks. The views and scenery were amazing. The cycled through local farming villages where they were harvesting the rice. The images one would have of rural China......rice fields, buffalo wandering around, Chinese in straw hats.........you get the picture.

After a well deserved beer I headed down to the Yangshou light show which everyone had been banging and raving about. Too be honest I wasn't overly impressed, it was very “nice”
Memorable Points: Cycling through the farmlands......stunning!
