I just arrived at the Li River resort which is very near to the Li River. I could see the emerald blue water from my bedroom window. Between bustling Guilin and the village of Yangshuo, in the northeastern part of Guangxi province, the skyline is punctuated by sharp, green-trimmed peaks of karst limestone, jostling each other for space on the banks of the Li Jiang, or Li River.

The dark fleecy clouds hang in the sky my days work was about to come to an end and I was just winding up my stuff. The one thing I have to look forward is the promotions coming up next week.

Sometimes he pursued the call into the forest, looking for it as though it were a tangible thing, barking softly or defiantly, as the mood might dictate. He would thrust his nose into the cool wood moss, or into the black soil where long grasses grew, and snort with joy at the flat earth smells; or he would crouch for hours, as if in concealment, behind fungus-covered trunks of fallen trees, wide-eyed and wide-eared to all that moved and s...
