Our Huitengxile Park stop in Inner Mongolia on June 26th was one of the first real fun stops for the kids, with lots of activities for them. The two things that stood out most for me were how magical this village looked when we approached it at night, it kinda reminded me of a scene from Spirited Away, and how many wind turbines there were. Thousands upon thousands of them, not only as far as the eye could see, but as far as my drone’s eye could see as well. While we were on the highways, we saw dozens of trucks carrying even more turbine blades being shipped out to new sites. It’s particularly entertaining to look at when you remember that Trump has convinced a lot of people to believe they’re not used in China, claiming China manufactures wind turbines to sell abroad but doesn’t use them domestically, and that wind farms like these are just “for show.”

Haven't had as much time to post as I hoped during this 13,000 km road trip through China, probably should've anticipated that. A lot of you have been asking about the breakdowns and how we're handling things, so I'll brush over some of our stops and give you a more high level
