I have found that it is easier to post a bunch of photos and then go back and put in the text, that way if something weird happens to my internet the photos are still on there.
We arrived in Yangshou by boat along the Li river. We had been to Yangshou in the 90's with our friends Ia and Flip. We loved the small quaitness of the place and it was relaxing and easy to get around. Welllllllll.....My how things have changed! Yangshou is chock a block with shops, restaurants and tourists tourists tourists! Especially at night, the streets that had been blocked off for pedestrian traffic, were wall to wall. Never the less, it is a very scenic place, surrounded by Karsks topped by Pagodas, and lots of western food, which pleased August no end.
The people all seem prosperous, and the tourist industry doesn't cause as much polution as others so that has got to be a good thing, right?
