We visited a still working 500 year old Qing Dynasty village within Yangshou. This man made pipes out of fish bones and pumello skins. He was a good bargainer.
This fellow is clearing out new growth from his osthmanthus trees so that they will be successful next year. Osthmanthus is used for healing tea.
This little one, Pengpan, followed us on her grand dad's bicycle when we went out for a bike ride. When we stopped for a water break, she and her grandfather broke out tons of little Chinese ornaments for us to buy. Of course we did and I asked for a photo as a part of the deal.
I finally was able to get close enough to get a shot of the many grandparent-baby scenes. These folks are headed into their village. Many of the preschoolers yelled "Hello, Ni Hao" to us as we biked through their hamlets.
