The edge of the walkway is lined with people and our guide
is desperate to get us to the top of the hill. We’re all trying to keep up but
then one of the old dears takes a fall as she’s misjudged a step. Once we’re
all caught up and have established that there’s no injury we carry on to the
top of the tower where we’re allowed a glimpse inside one of the tearooms. Then
it back down the other side of the hill where we were collected for lunch. While
it was settling, we got taken to a calligraphy museum where we were given a
lesson in Chinese writing. We learnt how every stroke has a different meaning
and we wrote a few phrases followed by our names with ink and a paintbrush. Then
we purchased our zodiac animals in ornate tiles before getting some rest for our
next big expedition.
