Yangtze River / Three Gorges Cruise - Day 2

This day's stop was to tour the "Three Little Gorges" in a smaller boat.
The Three Little Gorges is one of the tributaries to the Yangtze, and is the site of the cliff coffins, and other attractions.
Most of the pics on this day were taken with the Panasonic FZ-10, as its zoom was far more useful given the circumstances. Will upload pics once my dad returns with that camera.
