Today is a tiring day.
Woke up 5 am and went to airport for our flight to Li Jiang.

A very beautiful place. Nice cool weather.
Those who love old buildings will definitely love this place.
Whole day was spent walking and taking photos.
So tired and hungry.

Sorry, no sample pics today. Too tired. :faint:
Thankfully the hotel is very nice and has free internet.
However, I cant access youtube and facebook. Oh well.

Day 3 China

What did I do today?
Woke up early and had a big breakfast in the hotel with breathtaking view of Jade mountain.
Afterwards we head on to watch an amazing show set in a beautiful backdrop.
It was produced and directed by Zhang Yi Mou (Beijing Olympics Opening Director).
It's like no other, I tell you. No sample pics as this will be a surprise.

Then we embarked on adventure like no other - go to Jade Mountain via cable car then a walking platform to see the glacier summit.
My oxygen level was initially 93% when I was in the starting cable station then went down to 75% on the station on top of the mountain. I was still okay and have an O2 canister. Good thing none of us had altitude sickness.

4506 feet above sea level.
Behind me is the platform to the glacier. I only walked halfway cause it became very foggy. Only three of us in the group walked in the plaform.

Then we went to a beautiful lake. Had lunch at 4. Yes 4 pm!
Walked again for miles and climbed a pagoda. Only two of us (me and Cris - the young ones in the group) climed the pagoda as it was just tiring for others.
Evening was spent watching a performance in the comfort of our seats.

Okay signing off from CHINA for now.
