Day 25, Bao-An

Happy Thanksgiving. I'm back in the States and I'm spending some time with family. One of the most fun moments I had in China was hiking a small mountain near work. Mike and myself and some of the girls from work all hopped on a bus that took us to the foot of the mountain. It was a warm sunny day. Perfect for the trek. The girls collected some bread and snacks as well as oranges and iced water bottles. We packed them in our backpacks and started up the 1000s of steps.

My favorite part of the climb. Right through a huge boulder.

The path got small in some areas.

At the very top were some boulders. What else was left to do, but climb them as well.

Then at the top we found an area to play some Mahjong and Chinese Poker.
