Mei-O entering the Yueyang Tower grounds through the arched
entranceway.

Us eating dinner on the cruise ship on the last night. It was the captain's
farewell dinner, hence the champagne. Check out our
dinner menus.

Dancers at a Yueyang tourist stop where we were taken to buy souvenirs. A
lot of the cultural places we visited seemed to be designed to sell us
something.

Out on the street in Yueyang.

Mei-O with our bus driver at the airport as we were leaving Shanghai.
His nickname was 'Xiaolaoshu' ('Little Mouse'), and he was quite
interesting and a lot of fun.

As we sat in the Gezhouba lock waiting to rise to meet the river on
the other side of the dam, I noticed the many colors and textures
of the lock wall.

The little kids in the Lesser Three Gorges didn't go to school because
they made so much money off of the tourists who visited, mostly just by
begging. Their parents preferred it that way.

It was a long climb from the city below to this spot, just outside the
Stillwell Museum in hilly Chongqing where our tour group was while Mei-O
and I took a walk. This elderly shopper wasn't having any difficulties
making it.
