Village exploration

Upon our arrival into Cangyuan, we found to our dismay that the mudfest wouldn’t be until Monday afternoon – AND we had no hotel to sleep in.

Our intrepid group found hotel lodgings the first night and for the second night, we got more creative. All the hotels were expensive and we’re simple school teachers.

Massage parlor sleeping it was. I don’t need to go into more details but it is exactly that. A few of us got massages during the day and we asked them later if we could sleep on the massage beds – five comfortable mats to sleep ten people. Why not?

Look how comfy John is.
