This street in the old part of FuLi is quite narrow. I generally walk through it each morning on my way to the boat that takes me to DuTou.

However last Thursday morning I was not walking. Roger, an Owen College student, was with me. He was coming along to be my assistant. We had a watermelon we were carrying and the day was sizing up to be another hot one, so we grabbed a red motorbike wagon….another form of san lun che.

Thursday was market day in FuLi so plenty of people were expected to pass through this street in these vehicles. That’s the only reason I have for why six, or maybe seven, san lun che happened to be in this same spot at the same time.

There really isn’t room for two vehicles to pass each other. But slowly and carefully we inched by and the impossible was accomplished. Think these drivers might have done this before!

We were stuck here only long enough to jump out and take photos. Not long. But still the idea of a traffic jam in FuLi.......
