Got up, another beautiful day. Had breakfast and continued on the trek.
Todays hike includes a lot of paths along ther edge of the gorge, with massive drops along the path. Awesome!
We reached Tina's Guest House about 10:00am, I guess, the end of the high path. At Tina's Guest House, we paid 10 RMB to take a private path (built by a local) down to the bottom of the gorge, then paid another 10 RMB to take a different path back up, which included a long ladder climb to go up a cliff face. Mom would not have liked.
Got back to the main road, and there were three Spanish guys trying to get a mini-van back to Qiaotou. With Lisa and me, the mini-van driver had enough people to go.
Back to Jane's Guest House, Lisa and me ate lunch, then the guest house dude arranged a mini-van to take me, Lisa and two French girls back to Lijiang.
Remember the mini-van driver tossing his empty orange juice plastic bottle out the window as he drove down the highway.
Got back to Lijiang bus station, Lisa and me bought tickets for Kunming for tomorrow on a day bus, then headed to the old city and found a hotel at the edge of old town. One of Lisa's coworkers was in Lijiang as well, so we met up with her (Annie) and her boyfriend for supper. They we headed for ice cream, then back to the hotel.
