After the excitement of pandas we feel we are truly at the end of our year off. We headed back to Chengdu for a couple of nights back in Hello Chengdu YHA with its great travellery feel.
We also went to a big shopping centre called Raffles for our favourite, Din Tau Fung. Please open one in UK, so we can have more Shaulongbao....
We treated ourselves to a starbucks brekkie, coffee with pouring cream, mmmmmmm. It was free museum day so we joined the incredible number of local people and went to Jinsha Site Museum. They have found relics from the Shu Kingdom that lived here 3000 years ago, uncovering some impressive artefacts and technologies. However, I think we enjoyed the sight of so many locals more than the museum. Everyone was taking a lot of photos!
I don't know why, but this diorama tickled us. The elephants at the back are 2D and 3D at the front.

After Chengdu, we caught a flight to Kathmandu, then flew on again to Delhi for one night of curry and beer before the flight home. Delhi is absolutely roasting, 40 degrees and very humid, ouch! It also doesn't seem quite as hectic as in January, must be the effect of four months round Asia!
Now we just have the big flight home tomorrow. Boo.....
