On our way 10/14/09

We loaded a bus for the city of Yixing today.  The trip started at 9 am and we arrived at about 8 pm.  The bus ride was fun.  We traded seats often and just bumped around staring out the windows, reading, bs-ing, ipod-ing, and watching 007 movies (talk about adventures).  

From the window I saw this huge red object on the horizon.  This red sculpture was easily the most impressive piece of public art that I have ever seen, it stood at least 150 feet tall - massive.

The hotel was really nice, it was in a quiet area, and when we arrived the stars where sitting about for viewing.  The fresh air was welcome.  

Yixing is about three times as big as Jingdezehn, boasting 3 million inhabitants.
