some more pictures Wuzhishan >>> Boao.....
G'Day,
Mate let me stay in his underused ocean view apartment in a suburb of Boao and looks like the whole of Boao incl. most of the main the streets are under construction for another BFA: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boao_Forum_for_Asia
The snack bag packed before my Sanya departure helped a lot in the middle of nowhere in a huge flashy apartment complex with no restaurants / shops around just yet, bit foggy that morning with lower temperature compared to Sanya area but warmed up later on. Had a smile on my face passing through Traffic Safety Village.....
G'Day,
Stopped at a few road side temples for good luck on the way from Boao to Wenchang: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wenchang
G'Day,
Some sections of road undergoing cheap dangerous repairs as the road surface becomes very slippery with the hot tar and loose gravel.
Uneventful ride over to Wenchang and noticed a lot of indoor / outdoor seafood farms along the route.
G'Day,
Wenchang memorial park and Soong Jing Ling ancestral home: http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/..._Qìngl%C3%ADng
Wenchang Confucius Temple is located in Wenchang City of Hainan Province......
Wenchang Confucius Temple.....
On my way up to Haikou from Wenchang, passing through quite a few small villages and somehow they feel like 1800's western towns with single row houses on both sides, motorbikes look like horses of cowboys and the small police station is the sheriff's office and county jail..... might be all the infamous Sanya moonshine booze.....
These have been great photos! My relatives have finally left, so now I can hop down to Hainan, just as you are leaving :(
JH versus CJ. I recall when I had both a CJ and a JH at the same time. The CJ builder in Beijing would always have some snide comment about the JH (Chinese garbage, etc, despite the CJ ... uh, was also Chinese ... except of a "modern" 1930s technology). But I left my JH at his shop for a month or so, once, and guess what? He used it as his daily commuter!!!!!!!!! Not only that, his shop mechanics used it as their shop bike. Damn, they put almost 2,000 kms on it. Needless to say, when I got back into town I quickly took it out of their hands. Damn guys never changed the oil, or even washed it.
Yeah, the JH is far superior to the CJs. No comparison.
I was actually very happy to get rid of the CJ.
