Our guide was Cathy, a 12 year veteran of leading tours in Xiamen and it showed. She was an endless and fascinating source of information about the markets, the city, and the country as a whole. She picked us up at our hotel in a taxi bang on time. We started in the biggest street market where we walked through the stalls and stopped to have some dumplings. We then went to the temple near the University and climbed the mountain behind it. We next went over to the fishing village market and had some fun touring that. Cathy delivered us back to the hotel after about 4 and a half hours.
