Today OMG we did a bike ride to a village called Baisha. lonely planet said it was an easy 20-30 min ride, so 40 mins in and with the sorest arse on THE smallest seat EVER i am cursing lonely planet. Ride back was easier, turns out it was slightly uphill the whole way there. Easy my (sore) arse. Anyways we get there and have a good feed (of course) and a look around. they are quite geared up for the tourists as there were some shop stalls, but selling very different stuff than Lijiang! Den got a Mao Quote book...the famous little red book. Its been translated to english so i assume its possibly not the exact words violence-hungry Mao used..
We walked through the rural part of the town for a bit, big high snow capped peak in the background, so beautiful. Local seem slightly resentful of tourist, not so warm.
Bike ride back much easier with coasting most of the way, bum is SO SO SO sore.
We pyke out tonight and head to a pizza place...AWESOME food, they know how to make GOOOOOOD pizzas!
