It was on and off rain today, so it was a good day to take the 5 hour bus to Dali. Halfway through the ride, I was surprised when a Chinese girl jumped into the seat next to me and started talking to me. I learned later she wanted to get away from an older business man that kept talking to her.
Too bad it was raining and cold when I arrived in Dali but I was able to take some time to walk around the old city. I read somewhere that there is a lot of pizza here, so I decided to try some. It took over 45 minutes to get the pizza, but it tasted good. Probably the best since the US. There are Pizza Huts and clones around Asia, but they seem a little plain after a while.
