After breakfast we started the easier walk back down the trail to our waiting bus.
We rode back through Guilin and on to Yangshuo. This is a very touristy town in the middle of some of the most unusual and spectacular landscapes in the world - the limestone karst formations. From a landscape photography perspective, this is what I'm really looking forward to seeing.

On a quick walk through town this afternoon, I came across the kids coming out of school - all the parents were lined up outside on their motorbikes ready to pick them up.

I think the guy in this shot is the local version of a school bus (I count 4 kids on the bike, but there may be more hidden somewhere)...

We had dinner on the roof of a local restaurant, and then some of us went down and had apple crumble and ice cream - you have to wait about 25 minutes while they bake it fresh. YUM.

Well, we have an early start in - shit, in 5 hours - for some sunrise shots, a visit to a local market and ride back to town on the local bus. Other activities planned over the next 2 days include bike riding, a cooking class, and a sunset river cruise. All sounds like fun.
