China- Huangshan Day 8

Darren, Kevin and I woke at 5:00 to go see the sunrise.  It was beautiful.  There were people every where.  We hiked to a famous bride called the Fairy Bridge.  Its an amazing structure built to connect to huge spans.  



We were so glad we had enjoyed the Friday in relative peace.  Because Saturday morning was insane.  You couldn't move between the crowds of people.  We made it down. We were all so sore and tired.  It was another 8-10 miles of stairs depending on if you went to see the sunrise or not.  It was lovely to see 2-3 blossoms coming out on the tress.  I am sure a few days after we left the sights were spectacular.  We ate a good dinner at our hotel.  Played games at Andys until our taxi took us to the airport, to land in Beijing. We stayed a cheap night in a green tree hotel.  Kevin temporarily lost his new nice phone but thank goodness it was found.  We slept, headed to the airport the next morning.  We flew a long flight to Seattle which we slept a ton of.  My legs were cramping the whole time because you cant go walk stairs... walk miles and miles... and then sit on a plane.  (it took about a week at home to get my legs feeling normal again)










Depart next morning at 11:45 AM, home to SLC at 2:30 PM.

Total trip between 3500 and 4000$
