Hello!!!! Our little tiny, awesome hotel/hostel room in Yangshuo has Internet which makes me very very happy!!

The trip down south is going well, albeit it's friggin' cold as Dante's seventh level of hell.

Rain was forecast for this whole week but we lucked out and it didn't hit until we arrived in Yangshuo, yesterday afternoon.

We ventured out for a bike ride today and thank goodness for awesome rain slickers because we were covered nicely and didn't get very wet while getting lost in the Chinese countryside. The ride was rough at points because of the rain but let up enough to get some amazing shots of the Li River and mountains. Unfortunately you'll have to wait until I return to see any of those because there ain't no way I'm uploading photos on a hotel computer.

We were less than a mile from where we're staying and two stupid Chinese people cut me off and I fell off my bike. I've a nice scrape and some bruises but am ok. Instead of asking me if I was ok, what did they do? They laughed at me and kept walking. I wanted to beat them up, I probably could have too but I don't want to be deported so I just called 'em f*cking a*sholes instead. I was so mad. But it didn't deter me from biking because we'll be going out again tomorrow for a day long ride.

Until next time, here's a photo of us that our super awesome tour guide took of us while we were on our boat tour two days ago.
