Zhaoxing
Not everywhere has good internet speeds, 2 hours to do nothing, ouch. But then given that my breakfast order was forgotton, I then missed the bus, left my jacket on the bus to here maybe today was never going to be lucky. Going by the dinner menu, it could be worse, I could be a dog !!.
Anyway, left Chenyang Bridge for Sanjiang and then a 5 hour bus to here , Zhaoxing. Having got used to the general high standards of Chinese roads this proved to be a big exception. Not much more than a bumpy dirt road which recent bad weather had taken its toll but at least open. The scenery nothing special but some great little Dong villages and like Chenang Bridge, some lovely bridges and waterwheels so a very worthwhile trip.
Zhaoxing itself a great little village with about 800 houses. The Dong people very colourful and a nice atmosphere and the dogs are in the safety of the kitchen. Tomorrow expect to spend the day wandering around the local villages, just hope the weather keeps up.
