Dear seahorse62,
what do you mean by "Christian" school? Catholic? Lutheran? Reformed? In the US, generic "christian" usually means baptists-pentecostals-generic low church, and usually pretty intense (maybe fanatical). As a Catholic, I'd be rather uneasy about my Catholic child being required to go to generic protestant services and perhaps be threatened with Hell if they didn't convert. Were I a Muslim, I'd be even more uneasy.

Try Fu De Lu Kou 福达路口. Buses 129、109、127、110、90 go there, from Yi-er-yi street. Get off the bus at Fu De Lu Kou, look right across the street, and it should be labelled 福德旧货市场. I'll admit it's been a while since I was last there, but go take a look. If it's gone, ask people where it's gone to and then tell us.
Anyone taken the bus to Jing Hong recently? Any construction delays or anything?
I bought my 2d hand bike near Da Guan market. Go across the bridge and to the main entrance, then turn right and look for a bunch of bicycles. If your Chinese is good enough, you might ask people about er shou zixingqe for sale.
Not to seem bossy, but you can download the most recent version of Ubuntu from the net quite easily (www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download). It's totally free and free from viruses as well. If an old timer like me can learn to use it, a young guy like you should have no problem.

The beer is good. The food, OK, if you're dying for something Western. Food service is better in the daytime, mamahuhu in the night time.
I haven't stayed in their guesthouse, but I'll guess it's noisy in the night times.
Prague Cafe in Bei Chen Walking Street is Prague III.
There are other branches in Wen Lin Jie and in Lijiang.
I've been a long time customer of the Wen Lin branch.
Both Kunming branches are pleasant places to meet and chat with friends.
The food may not be the cheapest, but the cheapest would be from the street vendors.
I meet and drink coffee with friends at the Wen Lin PC several times weekly, especially since the Yun Joy Cafe is no more.
I've been drinking Beer Lao and coffee here, off and on for some years.
It's always a pleasant place to relax. The food is good as well. Close to cheap hotels and bike rental on Manting Lu, too.
Wenhua Xiang filling up with financially overextended youth
发布者"No one wants them there but you." And all the vendors and shoppers. And me. Lots of people, in other words. If they annoy the annoying car drivers, so much the better. Maybe they'll learn to stick to the big streets.
Book Review: Joseph F. Rock and His Shangri-La
发布者Goullart mentions Rock a couple times in _Forgotten Kingdom_ a couple times. He always refers to him formally as "Dr Joseph Rock."
Goullart's books like _Land of the Lamas_ or _Forgotten Kingdom_ are quite interesting in their own right. Goullart also deserves a bio, but I suspect it'd be harder to research.
