Amusement, excitement and concern
Paul passed the Crash Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D test drive on the ipod - one of the many things Freda and Edie were eager to do with Paul during our 2-day visit at the weekend. We also managed to catch up briefly with Paul's girlfriend, Jiajia, and another VSO volunteer, Rose. A visit to Kunming wouldn't quite be complete, however, without shopping for cheese and DVDs and we gave Sue a brief tour of the Yunda University area. Meantime, Ali was back in Simao recovering from his 16-hour bus journey from Xiaguan (Dali City) to Simao, a journey that is possible in 9 hours. Yet again it was Jingdong's Anding market responsible for the 3-hour hold-up. Unlike last time with me and the children, however, he just snuggled into his seat and spent the time writing his diary which, these days, is a luxury.
