Last night in lijiang was spent eating Korean BBQ washed down with cold beer and shopping with my Brazilian friend who was of to yangshuo rock climbing( jealous ) .i jumped the train to Dali a stop 3 hours away and half way to kunming and my flight.i had been told its a very beautiful Chinese town with many attractions for travellers .however on arriving at my guesthouse with its massive sunny courtyard with reclining chillout chairs 40 inch tv with English channels ( first in china and first English news in china) hot showers in private bathroom in my room ( also first) pool table and big comfy beds,I knew I wouldn't be doing anything for two days. So that's what I have done sat around,chatted to travellers ,eaten ,watched tv and finished my book.there probably is a lot to see but it already feels like my china trip is done travelling north to south and east to west.so besides a brief trip to the old town to secure Chinese medicine for my chest infection I have done nothing.although I have contacted a guy in Nepal who is picking me up from the airport and arranged accommodation in Kathmandu and finished my book and watched the local kids do gong fu ( shaolin Kung fu) just waiting around for my bus and another 24 hours till my flight.I've loved china and been pissed of with it some days but that's china it's been a good adventure looking forward to Nepal then home.
