Scouting trip photos – Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong, 2011/11
In November 2011 Huijie and Yanjing headed south to Sichuan for a scouting trip to the Jiuzhaigou National Park, and the surrounding area. Their tasks: figure out how to best organise a trip down there; try out the accommodation and restaurants; and take as many photos as possible!
Below you'll find the results of the photography task. Not bad! We'll be doing a trip to Jiuzhaigou and Huanglong in November, 2012. (Interested to know more about that? Email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).)
