Coming in to land


Coming in to land, originally uploaded by sazztastical.

Taken from the plane window on the little camera so not the greatest photo in the world but I just wanted a photo of all the paddy fields and how green they all are! It's the strangest sight as you fly over them - green, really green, as far as you can see and then weird little mountains. This is just as we were coming in to land at Guilin airport in Southern China - more in the middle of the country (East/West) and much further south than Shanghai.

The heat here is much more oppressive too - far more humid than Shanghai and just hotter all round. It's a beautiful place we're in though. It took us an hour and a half to get here by taxi but it was a nice journey and we got to see plenty of small, non-touristy towns on the way - oh and loads of really really stupid driving :)

Some things are not just restricted to Shanghai :)
