There's no China-Thailand border, so you gotta go via Laos. [there is/was a Jinghong-Chiang Saen boat; even if it's running (not certain, as the Mekong is low at this time of year), it's something like 800 kuai a head.]
Cheapest would be bus to Mengla 勐腊, cross into Laos in Mohan 磨憨 www.gokunming.com/[...] then head via Luang Namtha to the Chiang Khong/Huay Xai/清孔 border crossing into Thailand.
Remember the formalities for the Laos visa (US$40 or so, photo, depends on your nationality) and remember that land-border entry to Thailand (as opposed to airport) only gives you 15 days rather than the usual 30.

Kunming stunned by cafe bombing
发布者I'm sure Salvador's appreciates all the words of support they've received here.
As discussion has strayed into less palatable territory, GoKunming has now suspended commenting on this post.
Kunming stunned by cafe bombing
发布者@tanfei: The 14:47 report is what we used to write the update. However, the content of that page has been added to since then, adding the eyewitness reports etc.
I should add that Salvador's is not owned (or co-owned) by Italians, as that story reports.
