Golden Ladies ...

We left in the morning for Qian Shan (Thousand Mountains) National park, Babi and I.  Babi was the father of my friend in China, and not the best English speaker.  He had been in America for a while and we managed.  It was hard work for me to sort out his pigeony English.   He did, make a pretty heroic effort to show me around for three days, and I am really grateful for that.

We took a bus through some fairly interesting landscape --  ghettos and huge new construction of apartment tenements.  my notes say that we took some circuitous back road route, but my memory thinks maybe it was the normal route.
