Sun-Ling and John have been traveling the earth since 2008 while blogging, eating vegetarian and vegan, and riding public transportation. We love uphill day hikes, 20th-century architecture, Roman ruins, all bodies of water, local markets, shopping for groceries, aqueducts, miradors, trip planning, blablacar, and more.

Thank you for your update. I'm happy to hear you arrived safely! --Dayle
My daughter was adopted from Guizhou last summer. She was brought to us in Guiyang so we never got to visit the places she came from. She was born in Rongjiang but in foster care in Kaili. You have no idea how much your pictures mean to me. Thank you.

Julie,
Thank you for leaving such a wonderful comment.
Did you also see the Guizhou photos we have on flickr? Most are from the area of Kaili to Rongjiang. http://www.flickr.com/photos/meckleychina/sets/72157604620340919/
By the way, the people of Rongjiang city and the surrounding villages are very friendly.
