Hi all,

Finally have arrived in a place really set up for tourists. This is seriously the Noosa of China.
The area has approx 2000 of these seriously beautiful and wierd small mountains called karsts that are made from limestone but not eroded like the surrounding land. Lots of farming in between them. LOTS of good cafes and a gorgeous hotel room with balcony.

This morning went to the local markets and could have bought fresh killed dog or cat or a nicley dried rat if we had wanted.

Yesterday we did a cycling tour and had lunch at a local house which was great - good to do some exercise at last after all that personal training preparation which it seemed we did not need after all.

Lastnight went to a light show on the river involving 500 people which was very impressive. Day before we hired an electric scooter and motored (putted) around on our own for a bit.

First night we had a cooking class in a farm house which was a highlight.

On our way to Hong Kong tomorrow via another overnight train (yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck)
