It was around nine in the morning and I was figured I need to make the most of my time here in Tunxi 屯溪. The main reason why people come to this city is to visit the famous Huangshan or Yellow Mountain 黄山. However, I figured this was best visited climbing up and it might be a little late to do that right now. So I thought to visit one of the sights within travelling distance of Tunxi. First, I needed to get there. I went to the main road to take a bus which will bring me to the bus station, most of the ones which pass by will go to the bus station but you can always ask.

When I got up, I took my seat, when I noticed that a someone from my hostel was talking to the driver. She didn’t speak Chinese and I asked her where she was going and it turns out she was going my way so I asked her to join me. I learned that she was a Japanese student on tour in China. She has some command of English and it was good enough for me to understand it, whereas all the Japanese I know was from watching all those anime, which despite years of watching still hasn’t taught me anything. She was very happy to learn that I know so much about that aspect of Japanese culture, at least she found someone who understands her.

The bus station wasn’t really very far, I was hungry so I decided to eat at a canteen there. There wasn’t much choice though just something to fill the stomach. My new found companion didn’t feel like eating yet but she joined me anyway. The bus station wasn’t ultramodern, but at least it was comfortable. I bought tickets to our destatination and we were on our way.
