In the past, I have seen a down payment required to secure a place, and full payment on the first day of the course. It might be that the sales girl wants her full commission asap.

I think the point is that you can commercialize anything.

The example AlexKMG made about thanksgiving in Japan and KFC makes the case.

I see that on Dianchi (Grass Sea) there were boats out today training. It looks like they have set up lanes for racing. I didn't see anything in the calendar (I may have overlooked it), but assume it is over the weekend.
I saw 2s, 4s, and 8s out on the water.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Looking for childfreindly activities

In the Aegean Shopping Mall, on the corner of Guangfu Lu and Lujia Lu, there is a mini icerink (about 25m long) with other kids activities around it. I think this is the 4th or 5th floor. Last time I was there on a weekend there were kids running around in a bit of a free-for-all (a rare thing in China). These were all local Chinese kids.
About 1km SW of there, is a children's amusement park, tucked away on the NE side of 1903 Park (not a park but a real estate development) next to/under the elevated highway (entrance to 1903 Park from Qianwei W Lu), look for the big gaudy strangely shaped walls about 8m tall. I am not sure if this has opened yet.

A thought on the aging population in China. We should not forget the economic changes that have occurred in the last two generations.
The people of retiring age over the next 10 years (50-65 now) are the generation who made the big money. What will they do with the money when they have time on their hands? One of the things they will likely do is travel.
This generation of middle class retirees is not the poor, financially dependent, aged who rely on their children for support. In fact many of them are supporting their children financially.
These people are mobile and rich enough to travel in a way that their parents could only have dreamed of. There are millions of them.

I would guess that the number of people who will be able to afford to travel by air will continue to increase, even if the population declines.
As for there being not a lot to do in Kunming, it has always been the springboard to other places in Yunnan. I just see more people using the springboard.

This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.

A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.

Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.

In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.

They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.

They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
