Yangshuo DF Program

Sometimes DF staff are sent to help different teams.  This week I was Fortunate enough to visit Yangshuo for a program. 

The border bridge between Hong Kong and China

From the border I took the subway from the border to Shenzen North Railway Station.  Here you can take bullet trains that travel throughout different parts of China at high speeds.  My train would travel at speeds over 300 km/h.  It took only three hours and one transfer to reach my destination.  Unfortunately, the train station is still a 30 min bus ride to the city.  This wouldn't have been a problem if i had the 20 yuan for a ticket.  After a lot of confusion and no one to speak English with, a local finally spotted me the money for a ticket.

The karst peaks seen in every direction.

These single cylinder front wheel drive trucks are everywhere in China.  Pretty functional trucks that look like they could have been around since the 20's.

I watched this boy set up a snare trap for a wild bird.  He proceeded to play with it on a string like it was a toy.  I Felt bad but couldn't help but laugh a bit.

Right after the boy and his pet bird i saw this old man that couldn't have been younger than 70 harvesting something from a tree.  I wish I could have gotten a better picture but he thought it was hilarious that I was snapping photos of him.

First real meal in China.  This was served at Mow Mow's homestay for the DF staff.  Hot pot with many different versions of stuffed tofu and mushrooms.
