Wow, yeah I'm glad I didn't fly in from France just for the cancellation!
So I wonder how the actual Olympics will go then? Maybe on Aug 7 they'll decide to cancel the athletics and water sports events, and only conduct weightlifting and ping pong!
That should read that I arranged Monday afternoon off work.
Ah?! After the previous information posted here, I arranged to have Monday off work to go to see the torch at Expo. Then they change the schedule on the very last day! So I find that when I finish work at lunchtime on Monday that the torch is already gone!
I would find it rude to even organize a BBQ and change the arrangements only one day before. What sort of way is this to arrange something as once-in-a-lifetime as the arrival of the Olympic Torch? Why would they change at the last minute like that?

To get to Kunming Bei to catch the metre gauge cost me 1 kuai for a 20 min bus ride - how long will it take to get to Leshan?
Although yesterday afternoon my family turned up at the station to discover the afternoon run is closed for some sort of refit. The morning run was not mentioned as closed.
