A hectic few days as we cross two borders (twice) and participate in a fundraising event with Free Lunch for Children. Great time wandering around Macau, even making some money while we're there. Lots of time commuting while in Hong Kong though.

Every day seems to bring a change in climate and scenery. We put the coast behind us heading back inland towards a charity event at a little rural mountain school in Guangxi. Oh yeah, we also ate some snails!

3 days off at the beach in Sanya but we are kept busy as we participate in fundraising events with the hotel and Free Lunch for Children. We also meet with some of the local press talking about our trip and our charitable efforts. All in all, managed to raise nearly RMB40,000 to go towards school lunches in rural China!

Couple days off in Chengdu visiting the pandas and eating local Sichuanese Hotpot. You'll have to click the link to see where the zombie food comes in to the story!

Passing through Chongqing, the motorcycle manufacturing capital of the world, just in time for the 12th Annual CIMA Exhibition where we participate in a couple of events plus a radio show while we're in town!

We start entering some exceptionally scenic areas of China including one of China's most popular tourist destinations, Jiuzhaigou National Park. Not an easy road to get there though passing over a mountain pass and navigating around endless landslides.

Left in Kashgar as we await for our guide for Tibet and our cold weather that is getting shipped over for the next portion of the trip. We visit the sights around town including the major mosque, bazaar, and old style terraced homes.

I make a solo and complicated visa run from Kashgar to Kyrgyzstan to fulfill a requirement of my tourist visa. Two full days involving under construction roads, highway bribery, Kyrgzstan truck stops, and sleeping over night at a local police barracks make for an interesting experience to be able to legally stay in China.

Had to find a shop to look into a suspicious rattling sound near the rear of the bike and ended up staying another night as we got invited for dinner at one of the biggest cow husbandry "factories" in the province.

A couple of forced days off in the capital of Ningxia lead us to explore some of the sights around town and also try some of the local food.
