It's a ten aside mini tournament that kicks off at 12 at The field is 太平寺足球场(新北五期附近 and they'll be a massive party afterwards where, whatever happens on the field, the Tigers are sure to clean up in the boat races.
Thanks mate.
Those directions are fine and I'm gonna check it out on my next day off. Much appreciated!
Does anybody know where I can get Yang Rou Pao Mo the Xi'an delicacy in Kunming?
Any help appreciated - its been ages since I've had it and it was one of the best things I've tried in China.
The directions are - and don't shoot me if you get lost -
Up the hill opposite the Yunnan Normal campus off Long quan Lu. The school is called wen li xue yun.
REMEMBER that is the Yunnan Normal campus on Long Quan Lu heading north NOT the one down on Yi er yi da jie or wherever.
We'll kick off at 2.

Fantastic place. Live sports as per promised with football, rugby, basketball, golf and so on.
For the food, I've only had the cheeseburger so far and it was pretty damn good. Better yet it came with proper hot chips and not crisps.
Friendly, knowledgable staff as well.
Come out for the Flying Tigers' fifth annual Kunming rugby tournament November 24!

Film Review: The Fall of Womenland
Posted byI hadn't looked at the photos before I posted them. Having done so they're nothing special. I was at Lugu Lu recently and it really is beautiful - I just hope it lasts. It's got a way to go but the warning signs of a mass tourism ala Lijiang are all in place
