| Kunming is the capital of the Yunnan province of China, famous for its food and mountains. Can't say I recommend much in Kunming, other than this Stone Forest. If I were to redesign our trip, I'd add a couple more days to this leg and use Kunming as a jumping off point to do more exciting exploration of nature, a short flight outside of Kunming. |

| Love these Chinese-isms, propoganda-style |
 |
| Karsts are the big stones you see throughout this blog post. Very dramatic! |
 |
| Look out below! |

| Sign for the photo below |
 |
| See the birds kissing each other? |
 |
| See the elephant? |
 |
| It was so striking to me how similar some people in Yunnan looked to the Burmese, who are just south of Yunnan province. And, the cougar in me said, "Roar!" |
 |
| The elder in the family |
 |
| The youngest generation of the family |
 |
| Again, a Chinese family playing instruments and signing together in a park. I love it. |
 |
| Glorious balancing rocks |
 |
| The verbotten forest behind us |
 |
| The Chinese sure like forbidding! |
 |
| Verbotten didn't stop us. |
 |
| I love these labels - mushroom karsts! |
