TRAVEL SCHEDULE  

Lijiang Ancient Dayan Town	We arranged two guests from New Zealand and Britain, Selene (daughter ,New Zealand) and Sheila (Mum,84 year old, Britain) to travel to Yunnan from April 30 to May 10th, 2002.  We sent and received a lots of emails from Selene to discuss the tour schedule before they came to Kunming, because I worried her mum whether she is  suitable to the Zhongdian's high elevation of 3300M above sea level, I suggest them don't go to Zhongdian to travel. Sheila told me she is used to traveling  around the world  a lot, and is no problem for her. In fact, Sheila is excellent after they got to Yunnan.
Chinese Western Food	My manager Christine Liang drove her car to take them to trip in Kunming, I was their tour guide when they traveled in Kunming, Selene got a bad stomached when they stayed in Lijiang, I guess she ate some chilly food when they enjoyed their own dinners in Lijiang ancient town,  she was sent to hospital. Our local tour guide and Sheila accompanied Selene in hospital for one night. Selene felt well but had to cancel their trip to Zhongdian, and back to Kunming early.
Dali Foreigner Street	Sheila lost her handbag when they got to Kunming airport from Lijiang. We mentioned them to bring everything with them in airport, they said yes. Until evening, Sheila called me that she forgot her handbag in airport. We didn't find her handbag at the next day.  There are a camera and almost of pictures which were taken in Yunnan on this time inside of her handbag.We felt very pity and sorry about it . This rarely happened in my tour iob history. They still enjoyed a wonderful tour in Yunnan.
	They return to their home , and I got Selene's email soon, she plans to back to Yunnan to travel with her husband in the future.
