BBQ on the way to Qujing
|
Just outside Kunming on the old road to Qujing some locals have set up an adhoc barbecue area in the roadside forest.
|
| The fire uses nearby logs, and now with the dry weather and winter winds it will only be a matter of a few days before the fire department shuts the place down. |
|
| Now there are six lane motorways connecting the various prefectural cities of Yunnan, it takes but a fraction of the time it used to to get around. The old road to Dali took 14 hours on bumpy roads, now it’s four. The route to Qujing used to take four or five hours, and when the motorway is finished it will take less than two. Nice as it is not to sit on smoky creaking buses for hours on end, if you’ve got the time its worth travelling the old roads |

| The eggs are wrapped in paper to prevent them bursting with the sudden intense heat. |
