Back in China, for now
Boys who live near the pass that separates Pakistan from China line up in military fashion for a photo. We seriously love their fashion sense!

| Notes: Team bid farewell to our friend and guide, Riaz, and entered China through the Khunjarab Pass. A delay at the Chinese checkpoint cost the team more than two hours. Upon arrival at immigration, we were told our visas were expired for the second entry into the country. Our cars were impounded, and the team walked to the hotel while our guide, Abdul, worked to sort things out. (N.O.) | ||
Help support our cause: The LONGITUDE Expedition is the longest journey ever attempted with a focus on Parkinson's Disease. The Drive Around the World team aims to raise money for Parkinson’s Disease research by driving four Certified, Pre-Owned Land Rover Discoverys around the globe following lines of longitude. Readers are encouraged to pledge small amounts of money per expedition-kilometer via a pledge form that can be found on our Parkinson’s page by clicking HERE. One hundred percent of donations received go directly to Parkinson's research, and all who donate $10 or more will be entered into a raffle to win an expedition-equipped Land Rover Discovery.
