12 July 2008

  • Mega Early Up
  • Fought Chinese for breakfast. Very nice Dumplings
  • Transfer to smaller boat, along a gorge
  • Extremely misty but very pretty gorges
  • Transferred to a tiny boat just for us + Lauren's group, rowed by some dudes, against stream
  • At a rough part they dragged us by rope, but not before passing round firewater and loads of chinese peeps photographing us.
  • After short drag, they turned us around and we zoomed back down stream, our western weight helping us along.
  • Our local guide sung a few traditional songs to us.
  • Back track to big boat. Sleep in the arvo
  • Dinner
  • David taught us Marjong. Me and Lydia on 1 team, and were awesome.
  • Retired to bar area as cooler
  • Watched a performance of dance
  • Beer. David did Karaoke, and a random lady went up halfway through and helped him. He is the ladies man indeed. Awesome.
  • Some weird musical chair game with Jackie Chan (or at least Lauren's group's guide)
  • Bit of beer and dancing. Suddenly all the Chinese vanished.
  • Sleep.
