z kunming do dali

Juz w Dali, w koncu. w telgraficznym skrocie informuje ze pierwszy odcinek tripa przez chiny ukonczony. przygoda jakich malo – 400 km przez gory w tuktuku – czasem czulem sie jak w filmie „Glupi i glupszy” w scenie wiadomo jakiej …

teraz odpoczywanko przed kolejnym etapem w gory na polnoc, do granicy z Tybetem. Potem dopisze tekst…


Autostrada z Kunming do Dali. The open road – Everything was going so well, until the exhaust fell off.


Wyprawa zaczela sie w niedziele. Sunday 22nd May – Depart Kunming for Dali


First small glitch – After a popping sound and a loud bang, we looked back to see the exhaust skidding along behind us. Incidentally, just to complicate matters I lost the spanner I’m holding.

Lost in translation. All greek to me – Trying to decipher the Chinese map to establish where the hell we were.


*I’m going to have to give them my watch” – Garage where we carried out some minor repairs – Re-attatched exhaust, new Exhaust housing, tightened brakes, spotted we had lost two brackets holding the body to the chassis, fabricated two new brackets, realigned rear wheels, and tightened drive chain, two guys, three hours work – Cost, 1 crisp Dollar bill.


Camping – We we’re looking for a place to camp away from any rice paddies, but then it dawned on us that this is China, and such a place doesn’t exist.


droga wjazdowa do Dali City – koszmar… We thought this was bad – A 2km stretch of unfinished highway outside Dali. Notice the leaning Body.
