d7 Hey Andy, I made it to Putuoshan

My mate Andy from back in my teaching days had always wanted to visit Putuoshan. We had kinda sorta made possible plans to visit the island. Before moving to Shanghai Andy had lived in Ningbo but never had the opportunity to visit the sacred Buddhist island himself.

"Hey Andy, I made it to Putuoshan. It's amazing!"

After a slightly burned fry-up breakfast (on my part) and cleaning Steve's apartment (Yoyo and I) the three of us drove out to the island. It was great being out and about and not on a bicycle. We visited the top sites on the island, including a hike up to the top of Mount Putuo.

That evening we had takeout from the best Indian restaurant in all of China. It really was darn good (except the vindaloo was a bit tame).
