I have to confess to using an online dictionary to check the term for inhabitants of Quebec, in case your wondering whether that's right or not. We had a fascinating journey from Dali to Kunming today, thanks to our travel companions Daphnee and Daniel, from Quebec. They have been travelling for two years, a few weeks of which have been in China, and are now heading over to Guangdong to find out what's wrong with Daphnee's digestive system. It seems she's been ill for some time and could have written a book about the hospitals of Asia.
The couple have a number of fascinating projects on the go and, during their travels, are studying and documenting a vast range of topics - including traditional medicine and yoga - for future ventures back in Canada. I wished we had longer together, but such is the nature of travelling. We bid them farewell on the No 80 bus, mid-way between the bus and railway station. If you're reading this Dada and Daphnee, all the best for the rest of your journey.....however long that may be.
Oh, nearly forgot the French. They labelled us "Anglaises" early on and didn't speak to us the whole day. I tried the old, "Nous sommes Ecossaises" but it clearly wasn't enough. Oh, now I need to check a French dictionary to see if those adjectives 'agree'. It's a long time since I've used my French.
P.S. Ali's somewhere in Dali still, after his short adventure up to Shaxi. More on that later, I hope.
