Fenghuang! Great photographs! I was in Fenghuang last month and was absolutely blown away. We actually went to Guilin and Yangshuo afterwards so I think we did the reverse that you did.
Anyway, I enjoyed the shots - wish I would have thought of the cigarette-in-flattened-pigface shot!
I put some photos from our stay in Fenghuang on my blog, Aper(cul)ture! www. aperculture .com
Let me know what you think,
Chris

I've been ignoring everything in the office here cos I thought you were going to pack it in on day 9 and I just had to find out what happened in the end - WELL DONE for finishing it. I'm thrilled for you. Sounds like a torture alright - so you won't be joining the Poor Claire's when you come home??? ha ha ha! That sort of experience could make or break you as a budding religious person d'you know !!! I hear you are home for Christmas? Any truth in this?? Can't wait to see you. Take care for now. x Anne-Marie C.

Any chance you will be comming up to Windy Welly before you leave??? You look like your having so much fun!!! Lucy says hi she likes the guy with the Afro! Those goats look scary!!!

After 4 years with my Company in Cork, Ireland, it has sadly ceased operations and moved their manufacturing to China....so to turn a negitive experience into a positive one myself and my friend Karen are heading off on a round the world adventure to live it up for a year or so! After the goodbye drinks of course... Thanks to those of you who saw me off in style over the weekend....had a great time...and let me say it was one hell of a party...thanks guys& gals!
Mexico, Central and South America, New Zealand, Oz, Bali, Singapore, Thailand and hopefully Vietnam.
Looking forward to living ... full info
