Dali – Part 15

My last week in China was spent between Kunming and hiking in the beautiful Dali, trying to escape the torrential rain. I enjoyed staying with a first time couch-
surfer Roy for New Year and later meeting his friend American author Dwight Goldwinde. However, my last week in this amazing country was slightly tainted – I kept getting lost, places I tried to visit were closed and I discovered that getting out of China was almost as hard as getting in as I panicked and tried to prepare documents to fly to Bangkok, Thailand.
