... to snad pujde, ze cesta bude okolo 6ti hodin a hard-sittery byly docela pohodlnne. Listek byl az na 10:40 vecer, ale protoze venku lehce preselo a Adela je nastydla tak jsme nechteli delat zadne velke pruzkumy mesta a vyrazili jsme do parku do cajoven. Nakonec jsme zakotvili v prvni cajovne, co jsme v parku nasli a dali si mistni specialni caj, ktery byl na nase pomery ponekud neobvykly, ale o tom vice az nekdy priste.

But these tears were hot, bitter and horrified tears. I don't know what I felt about Xinjiang after that. Daunted? Curious, but worried. I am fascinated by places like Xinjiang.

... Sit sita selviteltiin niin et korttien lahettamiseen meni varmaan tunti. Siina syy, miks on tullu niin vahan lahetettya kortteja. Kaikki taalla on melko hankalaa. Niin byrograattista vaan ku voitte kuvitella. Pari viikkoa sitten multa varastettiin lompakko taalla Kunmingissa ja mika rumba siita seuras. Ensin mentiin yhdelle poliisiasemalle. Siella saatiin kuulla jostain mystisesta Mr. Xiangista, joka on ainoa ihminen koko kaupungissa ...

No wonder the "panda diplomacy" works around the world as how can anyone not fall in love with such lovely creatures. The panda base I visited is called Bifeng Gorge in Yaan city, which is about two hours drive from Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province. I went in December which is ...

... right up into the front wing and thrown it out of joint. Ian thought that the front connecting rod was broken and that we were going to be walking. The driver started to jack her up, and the other Chinese guys gathered some big rocks with the intention of using them to prop the car up to enable repairs to be done, although the damage seemed too dire to be fixed there and then. I wandered over to an abandoned work camp about 400m away with 2 of the Chinese. They found a couple of ...

... are covered by huge shady trees and vines cover many of the colonial stone buildings. There is also a serious shortage of Chinese architecture. And thankfully, white bloody tiles! Now days all of the houses have been named after the country who built it for example the Sweden Building and the America Building. The little villas are truly ...

... I do such a thing? Hello Hello, it is called the Bell Tower Mc Donalds for a reason! Where else in the world can you sit eating a plastic burger and look out upon a Bell Tower! PS: So as randomly stupid as I can be I can also be a creature of habit. PSS: Hey maybe those that turn up to say good bye this coming Saturday will forgive me. Why? By thinking they got it ...

Here there are a couple of decrepit looking chinese dragons, maybe 15 metres long, perched on the slope, all wire ribs and remnant plastic covering. There is a family group here climbing up towards the fence, and we follow, remembering instantly how hard it is to climb up hills of dry sand. The 20 metres up to the ...
