The
 morning was spent going uphill for 10km and cursing the Chinese truck 
and bus drivers for using their ear-drum rupturing air-horns as a means 
of communicating 'Hahaha! look at you, you're weird-looking and riding 
strange trailer-bicycles and I think this is funny'. At the top curious 
Chinese people (that includes all Chinese people) swarmed around me 
asking questions I did not understand and taking photos of the strange, 
tall foreigner. The rest of the day was downhill to a small town where 
we stayed in a guesthouse. We were invited for dinner with the family 
next door. Amy was allowed rice and potatoes but I was told it was only 
for girls and made to eat horrible chilli-laden stew. Everyone thought 
Amy was very beautiful and wanted photos of her. I suggested we impose a
 small fee for each photo to raise money for our charities but Amy said 
this was inappropriate.
