We got woken up this morning in the campsite by , ' 'The Back Street Boys' belting out. Now there's a positive start to the day... Lol We had noodles for breakfast before clearing up the site. Then we were taken in the minibus back down the mountain to the hostel to get showered and changed ready for the bike ride. We all got fitted up for bikes and helmets before setting off down the mountain.
The Liu's have been amazing! They have been so well organised for every minute that we have been with them. We had a bus at the front with endless supplies of water, cyclists in the middle with Khalid always at the back..... With me.... Then at the very back was the support bus. I loved it!
I was a bit rubbish at the 'up' bits, I got off and walked, but I totally loved the down bits! We stopped at a few places on the route. We stopped at a round house. I know we have seen a few now but the one is in its totally original state, and is still being lived in by 72 families. We sat and chatted with
them after being shown round the whole building. Amazing ! We stopped in a village for lunch, by then we were all starving! Then we were taken by minibus, in stages, to go to a Tea Shop.
We did a bit more shopping, then the rain came doran .... Hard.... So we headed off back to the hostel to prepare for our next overnight train. Macau here we come!
I have that'd such a great time in Nanjing!
