Yining Pit Stop: Picture of the Week
Bathroom Break Xinjiang-Style
When you’re making your way through the Tian Shan mountain range sometimes it’s difficult to find a good Cracker Barrel or Love’s Travel Stop when nature calls. Instead, just stop the bus in the middle of the road and let everybody try to find their own private “watering hole”. Awkward, but convenient.
This particular bus was on its way from Yining city (also known as Yili) to a smaller village hugging the border of Kazakhstan. As you can see, all our luggage was piled on the roof to freeze while we traveled.
