They are doing a second round of vaccinations for foreigners in Kunming, for those who missed the first drive. This time, it is only available at Calmette hospital and on one day only—this coming Friday, August 20. More details in this forum thread. www.gokunming.com/[...]

Hey Luke! Awesome article. I am plannning on doing the same trail next month with a couple friends of mine. Would you mind sharing the topo maps you used? Feel free to reach me by email "alecrosenman@gmail.com" or through wechat, WechatID: stylingoo

That's a shame I love Kunming police dogs. I was hoping to get one and bring it back to Australia with me one day (though not sure about bringing new breeds back to Australia so it would have required a lot of investigation before getting one). There was a guy who used to train his Kunming dog most nights at Green Lake Park when I lived in Kunming a few years ago, it seemed very happy and well behaved.

It's clear who the brainwashed one is in this story - the western traveler (Thor). The locals know that Ebola wasn't what it was purported to be, hence why there was no need to take any special precautions.

Cheers Michael. We were a few days late, but thought it was important to get the word out before the deadline expired.

Great they banned staffy/pit bull terrier types. Those bully's just go completely insanely angry and try to kill for the slightest reason. Horrible vicious powerful monsters.

Thanks much for timely and potentially important information.

Despite modern technology it took I quote: "Several days" ;-)

Still happy to see that GoKunming is not as dead as the corona virus in the vaccines ;-)

@Ricklane In these times of modern technology such as cell phones and the internet there's many other ways to share information and communicate over great distances. ;)

Ahh, I see. The friendly E&E folks must've kindly dropped by your office w/ the info. ;)

Blows to the head can cause concussion and head injuries are thought to raise the chances of dementia, parkinsons, alzeimers etc. Brain damage is permanent - I used to work with for a charity helping adults who had suffered brain injuries. Great cause and probably great entertainment, but I suggest that the money could be raised in a more ethical way.

Shaolin Temple, in the region of Songshan Mountain, Dengfeng City, Henan Province, is reputed to be 'the Number One Temple under Heaven'. Shaolin Temple history can date back to Northern Wei Dynasty (386 - 534), and it played an important role on the development of the Buddhism in China. Included on UNESCO's World Cultural & Natural Heritage List in 2010, it is the cradle of the Chinese Zen Buddhism and the Shaolin Martial Arts such as Shaolin Cudgel.
