ok, so after a long drought of two months, I finally did what I had to to find a real source of internet in this place called China. I wanted to show you some pictures of a trip of my friends and I as we traveled to 峨眉山 (e mei shan, e mei mountain), a 10,000 foot mountain that we climbed in 13 hours!
 |
| Us at the bottom of the mountain |
 |
| A rediculously awesome caterpillar that we found along the trail |
 |
| This mountain had monkeys... lots of them... our first experience with them was finding this big one, who ran up to my friend and stole his water bottle. |
 |
| We saw a lot of these... And with the fog on the mountain, I was always thinking we were almost there... |
 |
| Looking down from the top of the mountain... There's a reason this mountain is one of the most famous in China. |
 |
| Also on the top |
 |
| The top of the mountain has a giant statute of Buddha, as well as golden and silver temples |
 |
| Giant Buddha |
 |
| Other side of the mountain, with lots of prayer flags... Somehow Tibetan prayer flags are found all over, even in places not dedicated to Tibetan Buddhism |
 |
| This guy was there to greet us right before we left the mountain... if you'll notice on the lower right corner, he's also explicitly disobeying the rules... what a rebel. |
 |
| They had a lot of strange statues along the way on the mountain... here's a very happy family of monkeys. |
