south-china-trip !!!!!!!!!!

so here in Dalian is now the winter around the corner. one has jackets with big hats, and gloves be discovered, and the first snow-counter fever! But wait, not so fast ... why not again a trade mission in the south of the country?? So for stake out, itinerary, book flights, check in youth hostels, finance mobilization, and you're going to go. are for all 'those who use their map china-straight ahead of you, here is a short-travel review. two weeks through southern China. get started here in Dalian, about beijing to guilin. from there to Yangshuo, and then on to Hong Kong via Shenzhen. Finally, a trip to Hainan, and back to back shenzhen dalian.
went off on Nov 16's! morning nor the presentation in 'China's finance system' is kept, then quickly eat in the cafeteria at noon, and from the airport!
had once again found seven adventurous - to southern China to travel! Also on board: bernd, Georgia, kai, Maggus, tony, Zoki and of course, I was also there. a better watch on these guys ...

first stop in Beijing - waiting on the next flight to Guilin, a city in the heart of southern China. a bit of culture and nature. rice fields, water buffalo, landscapes and fascinating!



Zoki, kai and I erstn after inspection of the room! all the best ...



The weather was not so with all! well, that's probably a bit understated, but it rained a bit much - Asian monsoon or something ... but no matter, because what do you do when it's raining outside? na clear, simple ne visit cave!





outside again, and so well, dry it was. So on we went from one attraction to another ...



to lunch delicious local cuisine! on the class, 'hotpot-Dogmeat' and 'rats-hotpot'. yummy!



and another group photo ...



on we went to the seven-star park. pandaaa-alaaarm!



and here is the elephant-trunk-hill. understood by itself why that name "!



the next day we went to the rice terraces to Longji. The bus ride there was pretty strong. China, as one might imagine. rice fields as far as the eye can see. Just an incredible landscape ...



arrived in the highlands, which are the rice terraces, it was a bit too foggy for the perfect all-round view. but still impressive. The boys have since up to 1200 meters in height their rice fields built in the mountains!



so, then let's see. jap, so therefore somehow grown rice!



I, the rice fields, and a lot of mist ...



and again all together - with our bus driver, who had brought us superior to our goal.



on the third day we went by boat to the li-river-flow downstream to Yangshuo ...



the river winds through the hills and mountains!





in yangshuo ertmal again much rain. in the evening then we have accompanied the fishermen at work. Each fish has about half a dozen cormorants to his boat through the water flit to him the fish catch. the kormoranan a cord tied around the neck so that the fish they swallow them completely, he must pack up the boys only, and the full mouths in the empty basket. well, about as in any case. why not ...



but hey, I with kormoran konrad!



after that to the Thai massage. phew, old Swede ... well, anyway, the next morning we could go in any case, from the moon-mountain!



no idea where that came on once and who were ... a funny little people, in any case!



china!



we had the case may be equipped with rubber boots. a good decision!



so - and what makes a real journey through china? obviously, ne nice long train ride! 15 hours from Shenzhen to Guilin! very cool ...



well, with the bed-sharing we had at first no matter how our problems, but it cleared up as well!



Shenzhen is a huge city on the southern coast of China. Here we are then also entered from china & Hong Kong. Hong Kong is not everything in the English colonial possessions, but who still limit their own currency, and so on. So, then, arrived in Hong Kong, off you went to the hostel. bit small, but cozy!



the next day we went to an island on the edge of Hong Kong, which is the largest Buddha in the world. specifically with a cable car. the prospect would probably have been really fantastic, even if there was not fog again this would have been! five meters visibility!



bit cold it was ...



and there was the Buddha. how awesome, just stood in front. and not really seen him yet ...



well, because so again in the city! hongkong! simply great! huge, modern, and so many people on a very small space. really the hammer!



and then the sky-line. Shanghai has surpassed again!



"German travel group in Hong Kong!"



on the program-plan also included a visit to the ocean-park!



na clear - from ground water in the wild!



great idea - we were soaking wet!



evening then to the peak, a hill on Hong Kong Iceland. up there is even Madame Tussauds ...



and what a view! background in the mainland-Hong Kong.



the next morning once again up straight! look at all the daylight.



and then we went back even further. back to shenzhen, out of Hong Kong - back again china! then by plane to Hainan, an island in the south of china. photo in the airport ...



and by taxi to the hostel!



and na so, who it says then. good weather, right on the beach, 30 °, what more could you want??



'coconuts-ausschlürfen' became one of our favorite activities ... yummy!



but then has a beer here and be there again. cheers!



middle of the night. a few culinary delicacies at the many street stalls ...



and after we all of course completely AGAINST tag on the total had given sunburn-launching went, the evening's first to the pharmacy to get something like a magic ointment. But look for more than peanut butter and could not smell! muaaah!



with a cable car trip to Iceland-monkey!



I had clothes naturally-prepared technically perfect again on this trip, what the monkey did not appreciate ...



so, what I should say. had all been a little bit thailand-flair.



back down from the monkey-island, we were offered a small boat tour. 10 yuan per nose, well clear - we are there!



stop between rocks on a small island!



and then!



we anchored in hip-deep water in a human-empty beach, I claimed, of course, directly to me!



cancer crab, whatever. tweaks but definitely huge!



and what the chef has caught there? 'Nen sea urchins. on the class, there will not clean I connect ...



the next day you have it then made us comfortable on the beach. paradise-feeling!



de 'schorsch and me. oh how schööön ...



and here - and I bernd comfortably under the sun-screen!



beach volleyball! I can do it but not at all - but still makes it super fun! (So for me at least, certainly not my team-mates - but no matter)



how it looks. chinese beach-boys!



and because it was so beautiful, the same again!



nice glass of beer in the evening then ...



and into the clubs ...



nice girls. Although only a few words of English, but anyway ...



bernd come here! knutsch. oh man, the howitzers was again full as ten.



had to pull so pure before that the china-vodka. 55% left their tracks!



so - at some point we went home again! dalian direction again after two weeks!



of 30 ° warm to dalian hainan 3 ° cold.
here above the clouds sees it all very comfortably off, but I'm curious what the body of this climate change says ...



now must be given here at the uni again on the gas. the outstanding final-paper have not yet written by themselves ready. here and there waiting for 'ne presentation or one or the other on homework, and in general one must now after such a long abstinence can again look at the uni!

So then, hope the little travel break you enjoyed!
Greetings to Germany!
