Day 8: 3rd July 2011
It was indeed a full day of visiting for us. Our itinerary for the day only had a visit to the Dali Old Town - but our guide - a native "Bai" beauty - was indeed such a hard-working girl. She offered to take us to a Bai fishing village located at the edge of Erhai Lake and to go on a boat ride to see how the local fishermen caught fishes from the lake with the help of their domesticated commorrans.....
we were welcomed to the village by their cultural troupe...
this local old lady put us to shame....
she made rowing the boat with 6 pax on board easy.....
the birds had a noose tied around their necks....
so only small fishes could be swallowed by them...
the bigger fishes would be handed over to the fishermen who would reward their
catch with small fishes which they could swallow...
