Bamboo Path

On January 14 we were invited to a dinner with a bunch of the teachers at our University. The dinner was at a resort area in HZ. While some of the teachers had to attend a meeting we went on a walk. At first we thought we were going to hike up a mountain but that is not exactly how it went.
We walked for about 15 minutes next to a fairly busy highway and came to a famous bamboo lined path.
It was really pretty peaceful. There were lots and lots of bamboo...

Some very old and large trees...
more bamboo


Some interesting buildings...
This was a meditation pool fed by a spring.

This would be a great spot to sip some tea...
A Steele with some famous calligraphy

some guys in camo with guns!!! Ok, they were just playing laser tag. They had on vests and hats with binkers and stuff.



This guy let Liam shoot his gun while he was in between games.

Cambridge ( one of the guys that really helps us a lot) said that they rented the equipment from a company. He said that perhaps next time we could do that! We all thought it would be a lot of fun.

You never know what you are going to see in China.
