Ming's Day 4 - Chengdu


Hi all,

The students are now just off to rooms to pack and get organised for tomorrow. We are at the Ibis Hotel in Ya'an and just enjoyed a hot pot meal.
We have had a fabulous day, starting the morning with a visit to the panda centre where we all pitched in to clean the Panda's living areas and then feed them by hand. Some of the students wee a little squeamish at first - pandas seem to generate a great deal of waste - but they coped really well and did a fine job. We also saw some panda cubs playing and getting up to general mischief.

After lunch we hiked in Bi Feng Gorge. This is a truly beautiful area and we all stopped many times to take photos. After two hours we headed out of the area and made our way to Ya'an.

It has been a fabulous week. The students have had a great time and their behaviour and enthusiasm has been a credit to them,

All going to plan we should have them back at the North Gate tomorrow evening by 10.30pm- looking forward to seeing you all there!

Best wishes

Sally, Ivy and Raymond
