Once we had found our ship, (No easy task) we were directed to our cabin. The cabin was a four berth and grand. This was our first encounter with the toliet/shower and we decided fairly quickly we would forgo showers for a few days. We had the cabin to ourselves the first night apart from a busy little mouse. Unfortunately the weather was against us and thick fog settled from the second we got on the boat to pretty much when we got off it. Thus our view of some of the most spectacular gorges in China amounted to the odd tree or mountainside. A major disappointment.

We ate pot noodles pretty much all the time for the two days. Early on the second day we stopped at the village of Fengdu. Lashing rain and with very little to do we weren't happy campers. We were joined by two chinese business men for the second night who were friendly but had no english. The next day (a day early by our watch) we arrived in Yichang somewhat disappointed with our trip.

Next Stop Wuhan...........
