Finally some photos (part 3)


Jianshui - a small town in China with some historic parts left and not overrun with (Chinese) tourists. It was great!


A pretty typical road in China. Keeping out of the way of everything really keeps you on your toes!


Jianshui market


We spent 7 hours on this bus going over mountain passes between Jianshui and Hekou. Bring on the rail link!


Rice terraces - in Vietnam this time. They're a bit of a theme across this part of Asia, but they're really beautiful and very impressive.


Local minority women lend a helping hand along the not-particularly steep or slippery path to their village.


When we got there, suddenly lots and lots of embroidery appeared and was met with a chorus of "You buy from meeeee.....". I got away with a single cushion cover.


Hanoi - watch out for those bikes, because they won't watch out for you!


This monk in a cyclo was taking pictures of us, so we thought we'd return the favour!


Off the Reunification Express at Da Nang. The Vietnamese take the same attitude with rails as they do with roads - absolutely no help for pedestrians!
