Race Starts at The Great Wall – We of course miss the turn
off for the Great Wall despite Shovel saying quite clearly - ‘turn
right here, yes its this right, we missed it now’. Not a good start but we
managed to get back in time.
The drive to Datong is long and pretty boring as its just a
road filled with Coal Trucks, the highlight is one very dark tunnel with
oncoming coal trucks in a space that looked like it only had room for one way
traffic, that shows how tedious the drive was. Still it is getting us closer to Mongolia.
After dinner we go for a wander on the streets of Datong and
find a great little impromptu street karaoke bar. Lovely little bar and they made us very welcome further extending Shovels love for China, I can see Kuni will be going on holiday in China for the next 5 years.
Shovel can't think of
anything to add today.
