We are back from 2 1/2 weeks in Kunming, what a wonderful experience. It is a great city to visit, and our hostel was amazing. The above picture were a couple from Holland. We fixed them pancakes for breakfast before they left. We had some nice talks with them and enjoyed their company in the hostel very much.
This is the mall that was right below our apartment. We could get on the elevator and go down to the first floor and have a lovely evening looking at all the expensive shops that we would never buy anything in.
This is the new furniture they brought into our room. We loved looking out the window every night. The lights in the city were beautiful.
This is one morning when we got up, found it was a lovely warm day and heated out to see the sights of Kunming.
You can see a little mark where out apartment is at. In this picture we are on the 6th floor at a very lovely park area.
We went to this really big lake and when we first got there we rented this little car. We used it for just 30 minuets because we discovered that we could move faster walking.
Always in search of western food. Okay, I am always in search of Western food. We found this very nice restaurant by the University. They had many good place because of the foreign students that go to school there.
I spent 4 hours with Li, she taught me how to make these really cool strings grafts. I think it would just be easier buying them, but now I know how to make them and bought the material to do it.
This is a group of young ladies that were dressed up for some reason. They were on a walk through the out door market. This market was right across from our hostel, and it was great.
This is one of many statues in the main shopping area. Whole streets are closed off from cars and you can walk freely back and forth across the street.
One of the greatest things to do while in China, is to go and see the shows. This one was 2 hours long and it was amazing.
It had been raining a little before we went into the show. It was only two blocks away from our apt. and it was truly amazing performance.
This was Green Lake. It was the holidays and everyone was there enjoying the dancing and the beauty of the place.
A view of the lake.
These are how the chicken are taken to the open market. In this case the open market was along 3 blocks of the road. Everyone selling chickens. They were really big.
