Chinese Butlins

As the cliffs grew taller and more impressive, it became clear that a vessel of our size couldn’t accommodate all of it and we were transferred to a smaller vessel complete with a pagoda roof to experience the best bits. Unfortunately we were accommodated by a guide that only spoke a limited amount of English and wanted to sell us something different at every turn. The water turned from a deep blue to a very sparkling green. Eventually we disembarked into the middle of a man made harbour complete with circular seating and a stage made out of buoys. Our guides thought that they would band together with all the other bots and perform a song right in the heart of the gorge. They tried to get us to join in but it wasn’t clear what was expected of the audience and what they were doing. I would have been quite happy staying on our own vessel.
