Guilin Day 1

Our internet connection at this hotel is not the best, but I will see if I can upload some things today. We arrived in Guilin about 9:30 am. My student Gracy arranged a taxi to pick us up and take us to the Eva Inn Hotel. We went for a walk to see what was near the hotel, and we appear to have a good location, the sun and moon pagodas are near and the walking street is very close. In the evening we went on a boat ride thru the city. The city has built itself in the scenery very well.

 Sun and Moon Pagodas (on islands in the lake) during the day.

 The student aged kids were all having their picture taken doing this.

 Sun and Moon Pagoda at night.
 Chinese totem poles?
 These 2 are performances we watched from the evening boat tour of four lakes in the middle of town.

Glass bridge in from the boat. Maybe later this week we will walk to it.
