After a very late breakfast of bacon and eggs, we spent the day wandering around the area by Yangshou.

We started with an overcast day but the sun came out by mid-afternoon. It was the first time we have seen blue sky since leaving California a week ago.

At the end of the day, we ended up back in the tourist bazaar where Osama T-shirts out number Obama 2-1.

For dinner, we went to a vegetarian restaurant that was excellent. It is the only vegetarian place we have seen – the Chinese are real omnivores. At the place where we ate in Guangzhou, they had such delicacies as pig lung in sauce and fried pig hand.
