We got into a car accident! A taxi cut us off and we collided. It was scary, but thankfully everyone was okay.
What's the story behind the cross-bridge noodles?
It's a love story! A man worked so hard he couldn't eat hot meals, so his wife carried all the ingredients separately across a bridge to keep them fresh and hot for him.
What did you think of Lijiang Old Town?
It's beautiful and photogenic, but also very commercialized compared to other ancient towns we've visited. It was a bit tiring dodging all the tourists taking photos.
What's a unique thing you experienced in Lijiang?
I got a $1 haircut! It was braided on, and I could remove it if I didn't like it. It was pretty cool.
