Day 20, 110km:( by Amy)

Our early start was hampered by the fact I left the key from the hotel in my pocket. Chris took pity on me and cycled 2km back to return it.

The rest of the day was spent on beautiful country roads. Hardly any traffic weaving up and down little hills with rice paddies and satsuma trees. At one point a lady on a moped insisted on escorting us 10km to the next village which saved asking at every junction if we were going the right way. She also scrumped some satsuma's and insisted on giving us some! 

Me buying bananas and describing our trip with the use of the map and our printed Chinese explanation.

It ended up being another long day. Mainly because in the afternoon the road followed the bends of the river and was long. Also because they were reconstructing the closest bridge into Leshan so we had to go around. The dusk plus slow speed (because of the unsurfaced construction road) meant I got eaten by mosquitos and now my legs are very itchy.
