Nobody has threatened me, but this afternoon I received the following email from the Canadian consulate in Chongqing:

"Canadians in China are advised to exercise a high degree of caution at all times. You should avoid gatherings and demonstrations, and follow the instructions of local authorities."

I presume this warning has something to do with recent demonstrations against Japanese interests. I just hope I'm not mistaken for an American since we LOOK so much alike.

Bonsai does not need to be small. Check out the bonsai display at Expo Garden. Most of them are large.

@Spartans. Good point. We entered in 2010 at the old airport, however, even if the new airport has quarantine facilities, at least it would be in Kunming and not another city you would need to go back to in two weeks!

@Spartans - another issue you may face is quarantine when you bring in the dog. This could be especially true if your flights got through either Beijing or Shanghai. When we came from Canada with our two pets, the travel agent booked on Korean Airlines via Seoul. That way we flew Toronto / Seoul / Kunming. There was no quarantine on arrival in Kunming because they were not equipped for it.

Geezer, here's a quote from the article: "This is a good thing. Being able to board the new train directly at Kunming's main train station"

There are two types of dialysis machines. My mother had a peritoneal machine in her home. It used the same kind of water used in IV drips, but in much larger bags. A nurse came to her home each evening to connect it and each morning to disconnect. There was some surgery required to insert the connections in her abdomen.

When that was no longer working they chose to go with hemodialysis, but they would not do that at home - only hospital. I don't know if that has changed in the past 10 years.

I flew into Kunming Sunday afternoon. There were fluffy white clouds, all nestled in a sea of grey. It was not pretty.

Had my first ever visit to Slice of Heaven last night for a group party. Barbara recognized me as a newcomer and immediately came to welcome me and introduce herself.

While speaking with her at the counter, a server walked past with a pizza for one table. The aroma immediately caught my attention. It was awesome.

Our group shared 4 different pizzas. All were amazing. I think the sauce really makes the difference since it was very flavourful. I also put back to cups of cappuccino. I guess they must have fixed problems noted in other reviews because I found it to be quite good.

If I lived closer I would be a regular here.
