Village house with water buffalo grazing outside.
Here are some common views we encountered as we rode our bikes through the Yunnan province of China:
Roofs of a small village. I saw this and thought it would make a cool picture, so, as I came down the hill, I turned my bike around sharply, slid on a patch of sand and fell. My knee started to bleed, but I just let it, took the picture and kept riding. This was not too smart, as mud was splashing off my front wheel into the wound, which eventually became infected, gave me a fever and some down time in Hanoi, Vietnam. Penicilin took care of it eventually.
