Hi everyone,

We are planning a relaxed 2-week trip to Chengdu in November.

Hoping to see a lot of autumn leaves and beautiful scenery!

(NOTE: We previously spent an amazing 2 weeks just in Hangzhou which was perfect for us)

Here is our rough itinerary.

Chengdu (6 nights) places we are interested in:

• Panda Research Base
• Du Fu Cottage
• Wuhou Shrine
• Science and Technology Museum
• Pedestrian streets (Kuanzhai, Taikoo Li, Jinli, Chunxi)
• Sanhe Classic Car Museum (for my son)
• Anshun Bridge / Dongmen Bridge
• Sanxingdui (Day trip)

Jiuzhaigou (4 nights)

• Jiuzhaigou
• Huanglong

Chengdu (2 or 3 more nights before flying back to Australia)

We had originally planned to go to Qingcheng for 3 nights and then straight to Jiuzhaigou but it would be too stressful. So Jiuzhaigou will be our only one BIG trip away from Chengdu.

What are your thoughts?

In the transcript, he describes someone who he:

• celebrated her 18th birthday with at Neverland
• "Very independent, very strong-willed, yet very shy"
• Comes across as a "very spoiled...only daughter"
• "Never had fast food, and she loved American clothes" (which you'd say if she wasn't American)
• Her parents had arranged a marriage for her
• Very rich. Had her own bodyguards.

The set list could have been something like:

• Ben
• One Day In Your Life
• I Can't Help It
• Lady In My Life (lights dimmed, of course!)
• Childhood
• Smile

Can you imagine? He always said that ballads were his favourite.

I think it would've been a lovely and intimate experience for Michael himself too.

Hi all, we plan to visit Chengdu for 13 nights. Hoping to spend 2 of those nights in Jiuzhaigou.

How should I go about booking hotels via Trip.com?

Is it more expensive to book Hotel A (Chengdu), Hotel B (Jiuzhaigou), and then Hotel A again?

Or should I just book Hotel A for the whole duration of the trip and book Hotel B on top of that? Is it cheaper this way...?

Also, do you recommend doing the Flight + Hotel package on Trip.com? Or do it separately?

As I said in a previous post, my grandma is unwell and if the worst happens, I may need to try and get a refund. I've heard that packaged bookings make that extra hard.

A lovely interview with a lady who went to school with Michael and LaToya. She was also his Jehovah's Witness mentor and they'd have a lot of private sessions talking under a tree, etc.

I'm listening to the audiobook, narrated by Darls herself.

>Shi joined, defected from, then subsequently betrayed the forces of Wu Peifu, Feng Yuxiang, Chiang Kai-shek, Wang Jingwei, Zhang Xueliang, and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

Interesting to hear Powell explain Xi Jinping's take on the Thucydides Trap.

Very good interview.

I know it makes no difference to anything but it was always fun to know what age each NPC was!

..are still slummy. Come on, Alaune.
