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.
City cracks down on illegal vendors
Posted by"I've often wondered why the outdoor areas of Wen Hua Xiang can't have a few tables and chairs so people could sit outside like in most cities that encourage sidewalk cafes. "
Outdoor tables were abolished 5-6 years ago, after complaints from retired professors living upstairs. Too much drunken shouting late at night, it seems.
City cracks down on illegal vendors
Posted byI wish the Cheng Guan would go away and the street vendors were allowed to stay. If they hinder traffic, well, I wish 90% of the cars would go away, too.

Kunming's etymological vapor trail
Posted byIn the 1870s, the city was Yun Nan Fu but it was in the county of Kunming. So Emil Rocher, La province chinoise de Yunnan (Paris, 1880). Caravan Press (connected with Mandarin Bookstore) will publish an English translation soon, by the way.
