Drove from Lichuan to Enshi airport, stopping for lunch on the outskirts of Enshi. Re-joined Eddie, Tony and John at the airport. Boarded a plane andas soon as we had reached cruising height, we were descending into Wuhan airport. The maority of the group stopped in Wuhan awaiting a flight the next day.







Bruce, Eddie, Tony, ZH met two showcave guides from Wunnian and their driver at the airport and proceeded on a mammoth journey to Wunnian 7.5hrs, stopping off for lunch at a cafe en route and at a couple of petrol stations. Numerous toll booths were met. After loosing our way close to our destination, we arrived at a newly completed hotel past midnight. A late supper then bed. The furniture and fittings were pristine and still had their packing (also there was a snag list that included non-working electrics, low water pressure and loos that did not flush) Otherwise, the rooms were palacial with aircon, tv and brand new beige carpets - not suitable for muddy cavers!
