Yuxi Hotels - Comments and Reviews

Ni hao!! So I just got back from our orientation trip to Tonghai. I'm taking advantage of the fact that the wireless that I'm "borrowing" from somewhere on Yunnan Nationalities University campus is working (cause sometimes it doesn't). I've realized that I'm addicted to the internet. . . I couldn't even survive from the last time I was able to "...

We took the bus and it took four hours to get to Janghui, we did not know much about this place. And since this guide, is really ****, i did not want to trust is anyway. But we found a hotel just in front of the bus station which was surprisingly good, and decided to go an explore town. We were both in a really good mood, I suppose because we bo...

Mate, what does 12:00 mean to you? Does it mean tomorrow or tonight? Oh, I forgot, I missed the Australia and Brazil game. Everyone was waiting for me at bbq but after a slight, yet typical communication mishap I missed the game. Here is the reason. It's such a simple thing but could actually cause alot of confusion! I asked when the game was an...

Hey Hey N a Big G'Day to you This week has been such a wonderful week for the children and the school. The kids have been so full of colour, life and energy. That is if it can be possible for them to have more energy than the normal ten cans of Red Bull worth! For the last nearing two months they have been 'drill dancing' and when I say drill d...

Anyhow, on a subject that has nothing at all to do with anything that happened to me today or yesterday here in China. This year the greatest Band Venue N Bar in the known world turned 21. I got an email from my buddy Richie Ramone who runs the show and somewhere in it he mentioned updating the website. I thought I'd feast my peekers on it for a...

Two days ago I finally joined those whom have received what we call a 'Care Package' from the homeland. Check out the photo, mine contained everything a red blooded Aussie requires to get them through life away from their motherland. They are the three things I've been looking for a supply of since my arrival and guess what....No can do in Chin...

* There will be no photos posted for this entry Thursday, 16th February 2006 It was 4:25am and we were woken by the train staff. Hey that gives us five minutes to wake and do what we need. Usually they wake you about thirty minutes prior to arrival. The train had made up the two minutes over night and we arrived on time in Baise. Good job mate, ...

* No Photos to be added WINTER BREAK: some entries have 2 or 3 days worth of jibber. Photos for all the following entries are yet to be added. Some of the first text entries will be changed...why? They are boring and were written whilst I had one foot and lung out the door of the Net Cafe...but hey, some people wanted them on NOW! Some photos we...

Hey Hey and a Big G'Day to you What a day indeed, the day was spent caving. My gawwwwd, the amount of caves in the area. The towns here are built in between massive limestone hills and I'm talking thousands of them. If I've shown you pictures of the Yangshuo/Guilin area, it's the same here. The first cave took about 45 mins to an hour to go thr...

Hey Hey and a Big G'Day to you Chinese weddings are very strange indeed! After school I went to visit Yang Yang and the kinda kids as usual. She was all excited and told me her friend was getting married and had invited me along. How cool I thought. I've only just arrived and I'll experience a Chinese Wedding. Well, here is my experience. Every...
