Can you imagine the breakfast in the international hotel without a single piece of bread? That’s China! I got rice, watered vegetable soup and a choice of boiled vegetables. Tea or coffee are not offered, spoons or forks too.
Hotel bus took us at 7.00 to the airport. I got my boarding pass, pass through security and took a long walk to the gate 136. Few people were waiting there but soon more arrived. I liked most smiling Tibetan monk – he did not know any English, but wanted so much to talk with me -see picture.
Ten minutes before scheduled departure time we got the annoucement: flight to Kangding is delayed. It is still snowing in Kangding… We were waiting an hour. They offered a box of juice and cookies. The second annoucement was the same. No flight to Kangding today!. They took us to the same hotel.
Sorry, I decided to change the plan – there is no guarantee, that it will not snowing tomorrow. I am working on the new route to Shangri La – probably via Kunming.
