use this website to hopefully get the details of the delivery person or company: www.trackingmore.com/royal-mail-tracking.html
Follow the instructions on screen to get your tracking reference number format. If you get the 'not found' message then leave the page on for 30 seconds or so and more information should appear. If your package didn't have a local contact phone number printed on the outside it might prove difficult to find (or so I was told by China Post). Good luck!
no idea of the curent situation but it was a 'flash flood' caused by human activity up near the Sichuan-Tibet-Yunnan border so it may be OK up there by now.
@Michael - how about better education along with stricter enforcement of existing laws and rules.
I once knew a Chinese father of three who one day realised that he had somehow collected fifty points on his license! "no problem" he said and just called some local police chief to invite him out for dinner.
The high speed rail terminal stop will be Lijiang although they already say it'll go up to Shangrila by 2020. Unfortunately, the opening date has already been pushed back to the very end of December, or so I hear.
FYI, Lijiang if forecast to drop to -2 tonight. most of the night will be around 0 and it usually dips a degree or two around sunrise.
Shangrila is further north and up to 500m higher on average. I would expect it to be a bit colder than Lijiang. TLG was closed after the flooding as was (part of) the old road from Lijiang. I'm not sure if everything has reopened yet.
quite a few. off-road and road routes. Best way to find them is probably just to go with other people off here or one of the local clubs. failing that, just get out on the bike and meet other cyclists. Chanchong mountain is full of trails, from paved roads to goat herding paths. Explore. also, search the articles on here. Baohua hill is another spot worth checking out.
a lovely place to stay with great views of Yulong xueshan (JadeDragon snow mountain) from the roof! Beautifully decorated and hosts that make you feel like family. A million miles better than most other places locally. I can't recommend this place enough.
i thought i'd give this place another try as my usual place was closed today. even though there is now more choice, i was not impressed by the menu. they do have an apparently good range of coffees for up to 80 kuai but even a basic latte is Y26 now. the drinks were OK but nothing special and certainly not worth the money. the place looked somehow cleaner too and was certainly busier! why have so many of the cafes in this area decided that it's fine to raise their prices by so much (in some cases almost double)? i doubt i'll be going back. the 2 stars are because it was just OK and they've obviously made some effort.
not a bad selection of stuff and some of the staff obviously know their way around a bike. however, the 'special' prices for foreigners and the fact that some of the staff will use a big hammer to fix anything keeps me from going back. you could do better.
I won't go there again. The yoghurt is tasty and the curries are usually ok (they seem to vary in quality depending on the day and time). What really annoys me is the fact that they can't comprehend that I order dishes to eat TOGETHER... if my curry arrives 30 minutes after all the other dishes it's not really acceptable. Then again, neither is the 1 hour wait for the rest of the food or the incorrect dishes being sent. By the way, why can't I sit on the 3rd floor until both of the other floors are packed full? Has it never occurred to them that I might want a quiet meal and, after all, I am paying for it!

Posted by@bluppfisk - I was thinking about that thread but I couldn't find it. Do you have a link? that's one thread that is useful.
