Lost Boys & Co... W e talked about how much building is going on in China. There are so many new bridges across the Yangtze that they haven't named them all yet! There are between 50 and a hundred going up between Yichang and Chongqing alone. In our first photo, the bridge and road are so new that the road crosses the bridge and then doesn't go anywhere! We watched them welding the superstructure in #2 and to our amazement we watched a guy put on a belt with eyes on the hips and get hoisted up a couple of hundred feet to near the top of this tower. No nets, no additional straps, no hat - just flying there with a portable welding rig, sparks flying. We actually saw guys spot welding stuff without dark glasses! There are some tough guys up there! Dude, you like gotta have a hat... A beautiful morning, with a few big clouds bumping along and 20 miles visibility. Winds started onshore from the crack and they were light at checkout...
