We had a leisure morning at Butuo, strolling around town and visiting secretariat Cai's office. After lunch, we departed Butuo for the 2-hour drive to Xichang, climbing over a 3,200m/10,500ft mountain pass. Dinner was at a wild mushroom restaurant.

New breakfast place for our last day in Butuo.

The previous secretariat and her kids.

Sneaker store on the pedestrian mall. Many Yis now wear them.

These kids are so cute.

Among the stores is the Communit Youth League office building.

Secretariat Cai, wife and daughter in his office.

You can see the road we took on the 27th to Jizhi in upper left.

And the road we took to Luojiaping on the 29th in southern Butuo.

We found a Yi souvenir store!

Three Hans checking out the goods, and two Yis checking out what they're doing.

Those are what we were buying.

Back to the same restaurant for a simple lunch - our last meal at Butuo.

One more shot of Butuo Hotel. Not our favorite.

It's Day 8 and finally I get a picture with Fang Ming.
