Day 53 (Yangshou)

The next day saw the two of us travelling down river from Xingping towards Yangshou, by inflatable canoe, although the water was so warn that I spend half the time rather drifting alongside the boat.

Large passenger ferries also travel up and down between Guilin and Yangshou, and with currents being what they are, our inflatable canoe nearly got a little to close to the propeller end of one of the ferries. Yet the rest of the day was great, just cruising downriver, swimming, eating and having fun. We reached Yangshou just before nightfall, and just in time for supper!!!
