. Holidays come with trade-offs. We celebrated Mid-Autumn Festival today with our share of moon cakes, but we will have make up classes on Sunday, followed by a
straight week of classes, and another weekend full of classes to make up
for the upcoming National Day. So! Ou Yang, Martha, and I figured we
better make the best of today's breather while we could. At nine o'clock
we found ourselves shoulder to shoulder with dozens of university
students waiting for Bus 585, bound for JinYun Mountain, the ridge that
lords over all of Beibei.
We're only halfway up the mountain here, looking down onto Beibei. |
Bamboo groves are plentiful all over the mountain. |
The noodle and ice cream ladies sell Ou Yang a bottle of warm water. |
This family is more interested in relaxing with their tiny dog than hiking the rest of the way up the mountain. |
I admit that I'm surprised I don't witness more accidents, given what might be called free-form driving habits. Fortunately, nobody was seriously injured in this motorcycle/car collision at the foot of the mountain.
