For the Guillaume book, those on the book club wechat should be able to acquire a digital copy through wechat. The pdf file is apparently too big to send as an email attachment.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Rainfall data

Friend of mine who translated a book by a Frenchman who was in Yunnan in 1870-72 says the author wrote that one year it rained 100 days straight. He entered the country from the Changjiang (Yangtse) in the far north, came to Kunming, traveled around Yunnan a bit (left the country into Viet Nam), so I'm not sure where he saw all this. However, he reported flooding in Kunming.
Despite this, I reckon we're seeing the effects of global climate change at the moment.

Not quite what you'd call a jumping place, but not bad at all for rather standard US-type meals, not overly expensive, and with a really good salad bar that's cheap, or free with most dinner dishes after 5:30PM. You can get a bottle of beer or even wine if you really want to, but I've never seen anybody do it - maybe that's just to take out. Chinese Christian run, and they hire people with physical disadvantages, who are pleasant and helpful. Frequented by foreign (mostly North American) Christians and Chinese Christians - was started by a Canadian couple associated with Bless China (previously, Project Grace), who are no longer here, but no religious pressure or any of that. Steaks are nothing special, and I avoid the Korean dishes, which I've had a few times but which did not impress me.

As a shop and bakery, it's very good bread at reasonable prices, of various kinds (Y18 for a good multigrain loaf that certainly weighs well over a pound. Other stuff too, like granola and oatmeal that is local, as well as imported things, including American cornflakes and so forth, which some people seem to require.

Large portions, seriously so with the pizza, which is Brooklyn/American style, I guess. Convivial, conversational, good place to drink with good folks on both sides of the bar, especially after about 9PM.

Really good pizza and steaks. The wine machine fuddles me when I'm a bit fuddled, & seems unnecessary. Good folks on both sides of the bar.
