We have since been all over this country, but i will go back to the beginning and start with our first day in China proper.
We flew from Hong Kong to Guilin a city in the south of China. A place famous for it's lime stone "Karsk" formations. We arrived in the evening to a airport that in 1993 was totaly empty and had only 2 taxis out front with sleeping drivers in both, now it was like touching down in Las Vegas, lit up palm trees and so much hussle and busle that we didn't recognize the place. Our guide "katarina" aka Chow,took us to our hotel and we collapsed.
The next day we were met with the typical Guilin view outside our window. Pretty much the above within a city scape. It was beautiful! The town was buzzing at 6:30 am. We got our stuff together and headed for the boat that was going to take us down the Li river to the city of Yangshou.
