Forums > Travel Yunnan > Kunming to Hekou train

The train is perhaps for those who are not so damn picky and think airplanes emit too much crap into the air. I can sleep on them fairly well. The picky ones usually can't/don't/desire not to adapt well and will never be able to be happy here.

Anyway, there are day trains as well - cheaper, I think, but the advantage of the night train is that you arrive at 6AM and can go into Viet Nam the same day, without having to worry about the train being too late for the border.

Geezer, you've got some good questions here, but we're both way off the thread and I'm not going to try to deal with them. I'll just bow out by saying nobody yet has come up with any good reasons to doubt the findings of the great majority of the scientists who have been working on the problem. The Capitalists like to make money, and if they can do it out of climate change, which I think they also believe is happening, they will, though it's harder than doing it the old way - most of them probably know they must, eventually - most of them (oil companies etc.) respect the findings of scientists too, no matter what they say. Of course they'll squeeze every dollar in the meantime - they always have and they always will.

Nice weather today.

Think you've not quite written what you meant about the population of people with ONLY an elementary education, as you say it is 'slightly disturbing'.

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.
