Small Town China - 91 kilometers
Small town on edge of desert -- Wed, Aug 10, 2005
Stayed in a small roadside town because the next stopping point is 150km away. It is slow living here, dictated by the roll of the trucks on 312. But the people were very nice and the accomodations, humm, well better than the barn ;) Feeling better, eating again!
