Sumo Wrestling has lots of small rituals that are easy to miss, and tons of physical strategy, making it a blast to watch! Here’s a few pictures and video clip.

Here are two fairly evenly matched wrestlers with a lot of energy:

China – Emei Mountains

Chris — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 09:11:27 +0000

Well I lost my camera today so my pics will probably be sparse for a while. That’s actually OK because for the next several weeks I’ll be living in a Buddhist monastery in the Emei (beautiful, elegant) mountains.

If you are ever traveling to this region, you can contact Patrick at Emei Guides (www.emeiguides.com). He is a superstar and took great care of me.

Update: I spent almost a month at the monastery, time to move on! Images with a black border were taken by Alan LI 黎紫翔, a very talented photographer I met and traveled with on the mountain.

China – Hong Kong

For anyone looking to buy laptops or camera gear, Hong Kong is the place to do it. I bought a laptop at the Mong Kok Computer Center, at a place called Best Resource 2.

China – Longji and Ping’an

Chris — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 07:14:11 +0000

It’s hard to capture what a cool place this is. These rice paddies carved into the hillsides can be followed for what seems like an eternity through the mountains. We ended up in 2 small villiages, one in Longji and one in Ping’an which were peaceful and great for relaxing. I didn’t end up taking many pictures because there was heavy fog for most of our stay, but these pictures will give you an idea of what it was like.
