11/3/06 - We left Yunxian for the longest drive of the whole trip. About 5 hours to our final destination, Cangyuan ( 滄源 ), with a lunch break at Gengma ( 耿馬) where we also visited a Burmese Buddist temple.
In Cangyuan, first stop was a cave where the ethnic Wa people celebrate their ancestry. Then we walked on a mile-long footbridge along a beautiful valley. After that we visited three homes of local school kids.
Finally, we were treated to the Wa "King's Banquet". It was a long but one of the most memorable day in my life.
