Rest

I had flown to Hubei Province to take a cruise up the Yangtze River through the Three Gorges all the way to Chongqing.  But I had six hours to kill in Yichang before I could board the ship.  Six hours.  Dragging my luggage around.  And my cell was already out of power.

I hadn’t planned well.

I found an expensive but well-recommended place called something like the Rest Hotel and mustered all my Mandarin to explain that I was would pay the 100RMB (about $15) for the entire night but that I would only be staying a few hours.  Charged my phone, left my luggage to wander around, and then took a nap.  Best money I’ve ever spent.
