This is a funny audio file that I found. It was made accidentally, must have been turned on in my pocket (which means it is also not of the best quality). I edited out the over-an-hour-long engine noise, and began at tire screeching and near accident. Then discussion about being lost, and interactions with a local farmer, another car following us -- they're just not used to seeing foreigners so go out of their way to view the exotic alien beings up close! And then discussion about the cave-houses, and we take off again even though Diny's plugs are misfiring, we figure we have only about 20 km to go to the next town, and we need food and tuneups. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. It says a lot about traveling independently in China.
