Lijiang Calling

Man, I just had a battle royal uploading these photos.  Not sure if was the server or the great firewall of China Inc.  Either way, they are finally here.

Lijiang is a town in Yunnan province that has exploded onto the tourism scene in the last ten years.  Although I liked Lijiang more and more the longer I stayed there, it was the surrounding villages and countryside that really drew me in and won me over.  I'm not sure when I'm going back, but I'm definitely going back.  We stayed for five days, but five weeks would be a better length to spend in the area.  At times, it made me feel like I was back in Oregon.
