China pics

Some pics from the backup camera. They were taken a couple weeks ago in Southern China, but they don't do justice to the rice terraces of Longsheng or the very cool river show we saw in Yangshuo, Impressions Sanjie Liu, or the raft trip down the Li River.







The rice terraces at Longsheng.








The fishermen on bamboo rafts in the Yangshuo river show. They used the huge swaths of red banners to recreate waves.




The show lacked the acrobatic nature of Cirque du Soleil, but this part, with a dancer on a moon, reminded me of the Canadian-founded company.




There were lots of cool formations using groups of people. (Much like the 2008 Olympics opening ceremonies.)









Our view from the bamboo raft trip down the Li River.










This is what our raft looked like.
