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.

The atmosphere might be frosty towards all strangers, post covid, and especially if there has been a tomb robbery.

Visited yesterday. The atmosphere was a little frosty towards foreigners after covid. But still some lovely people there. Sadly the figures guarding the monk's tomb were stolen two years ago. One of the tombs was prised open so I presume both were looted. It's the furthest site to walk to from the town as well so maybe not worth it :(

@Way of the Sun
All seven dogs in my compound that were on the list have disappeared. OK the old German shepherd probably by dying of old age.

Thanks for this, Colin.

Some dogs have a reputation for being yappy. Some breeds are know to bite people. Some breeds have been documented as killing people, some breeds more than others. I once heard of a chihuauhau killing rottwieler, it stuck in his throat.
