@Tonyaod. You don't have to hold back on the snarky remarks. bucko sure doesn't.
Paying the rent on wenhua xiang must suck. They charge about as much as Metro for cheese and meats, and as DanTM pointed out, it's a lot lot lot more convenient than Metro.
Backpackers are old news. Everyones flashpacking the banana pancake trail now.
Have searched for it via iTunes? Sometimes iTunes can get podcasts stopped by gfw.
I guess none of you have PayPal. It's pretty obvious Alien you can't owe money to PayPal if you don't/never had an account.
Just hope whatever you clicked in that email hasn't infected your system with a trojan.

Great news for passport holders of those countries. I'm still stuck paying 400rmb. Wish Laos was closer.
No results found.
Never gotten sick once at Sals. Their food is TexMex, so yeah, not authentic Mexican food, but pretty authentic as TexMex goes. Burrito wrap has improved a lot. Like the draft beer option now.
If you haven't had dairy products in a while, and do eat here, best forgo the sour cream. Nothing wrong with it, in fact it's the best sour cream in Kunming, but if you've eaten Chinese for month or months with no dairy intake, your system will react to sour cream or probably any liquid dairy product not so well. Maybe that's what happened with nailer and tallamerican.
Update:
It's now 5 working days for regular processing. So I submitted my application a bit before 5pm on a Friday and was told to pick it up next week Friday after 5pm.
Cost is now 400rmb for a single 30 day entry. Or that was what I was charged anyways. There are no posted prices and its cash only with no receipt except for your passport pickup. That's like $65 USD.
You can pay another 150rmb for 2 day or 100rmb for 3 day processing. For 400rmb, they should process it in three days like they used to before, but now you'd pay 500rmb. The office is still like deserted most of the time, so why does it take longer now and cost extra. If you opted for 2 day, thats like $90 usd. All other neighboring countries charge like $25usd.
The rest of and cope review is still good for hours and location.
Far out, less people. Big enough to get lost in. Pretty and quiet near dusk. 20yuan entrance fee.
Like everyone else says, best Indian food in Kunming. They have lunch plates and dinner plates. Show up before 1pm for lunch.
They are on the 4th floor of the half empty shopping mall. Best way is too take the elevator past the KFC around the corner from Starbucks.
Most individual dishes can feed only two hungry guys, so order more if you are starving. Naan order can take care of one only.
Five stars for the food. Go with Yereth's recommendations, plus any vegetable the waitress says is fresh.
Beware that Xue Fu lu is one way, so many taxis have to take a roundabout way to get here.

Ludian Earthquake fundraiser pulls in 23,000 yuan
Posted byI think the scandal with China Red Cross is just from some batty bored face needing rich bich who claimed she and her pals were top red cross officials and gorpt away with it cuz no one bothers to check rich peoples resumes. Similar to how CEO resumes all contain bogus degrees if you just bother to check.
We are Yunnan: Ludian earthquake fundraiser
Posted byThere were a lot of people. Good mix of foreigners and young Chinese. Money wise they raised over 20,000 yuan. I'd say success!
Oh yeah, props to guy who spent 5550 rmb on raffle tickets, and then donated again via public auction all the whiskey and tequila he won.
We are Yunnan: Ludian earthquake fundraiser
Posted byVery nice of all the bands and prize sponsors. Count me in. Do you still have to go thru the restaurant to get into laowo/DT bar?
Fujian billionaire loses Yunnan Baiyao lawsuit
Posted byGreat article. Didn't know this guy even existed. He does sound like a Chinese Warren Buffet. Too bad guangxi is still more useful than business acumen here.
And yet another show of how the scales of justice are evaluated by judges in Chinese courts; the heavier the bag of rmb, the more the scales tip in your favor.
