Sturdy doesn't sound heavy enough for Kunming. Go buy another ulock twice as heavy with a spear shaped key and use both. You also need to find someway to lock your nice new battery and soon.
Ex-felons need a good behavior Z1 release form from the warden...you really should of taken laotou's advice.
You found a different reservoir lake. But it's a nice one too :)
@Alien. Off topic post. Have the initiative and courtesy to start another thread.
It took someone named Obama to get Osama. Previous two whiteboys couldn't get the job done.
No results found.
Never gotten sick once at Sals. Their food is TexMex, so yeah, not authentic Mexican food, but pretty authentic as TexMex goes. Burrito wrap has improved a lot. Like the draft beer option now.
If you haven't had dairy products in a while, and do eat here, best forgo the sour cream. Nothing wrong with it, in fact it's the best sour cream in Kunming, but if you've eaten Chinese for month or months with no dairy intake, your system will react to sour cream or probably any liquid dairy product not so well. Maybe that's what happened with nailer and tallamerican.
Update:
It's now 5 working days for regular processing. So I submitted my application a bit before 5pm on a Friday and was told to pick it up next week Friday after 5pm.
Cost is now 400rmb for a single 30 day entry. Or that was what I was charged anyways. There are no posted prices and its cash only with no receipt except for your passport pickup. That's like $65 USD.
You can pay another 150rmb for 2 day or 100rmb for 3 day processing. For 400rmb, they should process it in three days like they used to before, but now you'd pay 500rmb. The office is still like deserted most of the time, so why does it take longer now and cost extra. If you opted for 2 day, thats like $90 usd. All other neighboring countries charge like $25usd.
The rest of and cope review is still good for hours and location.
Far out, less people. Big enough to get lost in. Pretty and quiet near dusk. 20yuan entrance fee.
Like everyone else says, best Indian food in Kunming. They have lunch plates and dinner plates. Show up before 1pm for lunch.
They are on the 4th floor of the half empty shopping mall. Best way is too take the elevator past the KFC around the corner from Starbucks.
Most individual dishes can feed only two hungry guys, so order more if you are starving. Naan order can take care of one only.
Five stars for the food. Go with Yereth's recommendations, plus any vegetable the waitress says is fresh.
Beware that Xue Fu lu is one way, so many taxis have to take a roundabout way to get here.
Grassroots forest management in Yunnan's Xinqi
发布者Sounds like a place well deserving of eco tourists. I'd love to get out there on an eco tour someday.
Yunnan's Muslims: The Hui minority in southwest China
发布者Nice read. The only thing that can beat a good Hui restaurant is a good Dai one.
I also like how religion in China can be expressed devoutly without fundamentalism.
Kunming couple celebrates seventieth wedding anniversary
发布者Nice story. Particularly this section and quote.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of letters were burned by Wang during the Cultural Revolution as her husband was denounced for aiding the United States military during World War II. However, the couple's son, Cao Pangpei, told CNN the meaning of the letters is not lost...
"My parents are 98 this year. Nowadays, they can barely remember many things [from] their lives, but they can recite the love poems they wrote to each other during wartime."
China International Travel Mart set to open in Kunming
发布者Oh yeah, no lighters or bottled water through security. Can get hot water inside but bring your own container.
China International Travel Mart set to open in Kunming
发布者Nice scenery outside. Bit cold inside in the morning, so bring a jacket. Seems they sell box lunches inside and have a few restaurants outside the halls. Yunnan was indeed well represented. Enough English for general perusal but most of the brochures and details are in Chinese. There was also a RV and tent section, along with usual dried goods/tea/jewelry shopping.
