... hiking, but this time of year, the water table can be so high that almost all ground is saturated, so our hiking boots were constantly wet. The larches were simply spectacular this time of year and it seems that the valley is almost all larch (seemed like about 60% of all trees were larch!). The temperatures were cool to cold and we often ...

... se zde cela rada cajoven, ktere jsou vyhlasene a lide v nich zde travi dost casu a masti karty. Chengdu ma pro tuto slabustku v ostatni Cine prezdivku Line mesto.<br>Druhy den jsme si trochu prispali, dopoledne jsme si jeste objednali 2 denni organizovany vylet do Leshanu a na Emei Shan.

... cute!) So Joshua and Heather's band 'Proximity Butterfly" were the second supporting act, the first was an acoustic duo from Chengdu. Proximity Butterfly are great, really interesting music, with great beats and really tuneful. I really enjoyed them and they pumped the audience up perfectly for the Eastwood (as it says on the posters!) !<br>So then the boys went on and they we so good! The audience were all pretty much young people who loved ...

Today I went to Chengdu's largest and best preserved buddhist temples, Wenshu (after class of course). It was only 5 yuan to get in! We started by receiving free incense. After they were all lit, we would visit each of the five prayer areas and "make a wish" and place the incence at the alter of the god. The gold statues were enormous, and there were so many ...

... old western men trying to sing Karaoke with the live band and younger ex-pats and tourists. Another highlight of Chengdu was visiting the Panda reserve just outside of the city. Unlike what we have heard about other Chinese zoo's the pandas had loads of space and seemed pretty happy lying around and munching bamboo ...

... we went to see a giant Buddha. We had to walk up about 400 steps to get to his head, only to walk down another 400 steps to get down to his feet. This day would have been an interesting study into the behaviour of the Chinese. At one point I thought they were just going to push us down the stairs and trample us, they seemed to be in such a rush! I'm getting pretty good at pushing back now! From the Buddha we drove onto Mt Emei, our home for the next few nights.

... the minpien, one should receive it standing up, with two hands, slightly lowering your head. This particular detail is easy to master. We have made over 130 personal contacts, visited 25 potential job sites, contacted 48 different NGOs, businesses and other groups, and 19 government departments, and we've held 42 meetings. We still haven't been able to get to work, and that is due to other complexities a bit more difficult to navigate than giving and ...

... on the list was made by an anonymous company. There are thousands of people still trapped, fighting for their lives, and companies are using it as a publicity tool. Footage of the aftermath has been quite graphic, showing limbs sticking out of piles of rubble and families breaking down over the loss of their children. Wen Jiabao recently visited the epicenter, cried with the victims, ordered the military to work faster ...

... of scam, but I think she was genuine. It was an eye opener that some people perhaps may have never seen a Caucasian person before. So maybe they are genuinely curious when they stare at us. We then decided to walk around the back of the statue to see if there was anything more, and we found something that Zoe has wanted to see for a long time. It was the Body Works exhibit, where they display cadavers that have been preserved. I was a bit sceptical ...
