ONE OF THE FUNNY SHOTS OF JEWEL THAT JUST SCREAMED OUT FOR A CAPTION. SHE WANTED TO FLIP BACKWARDS OUT OF BOTH OF OUR ARMS TO SEE US BETTER .
Here are a few highlights from our day at the panda base. You can see all the pix so far (lots more to come) at this Flickr album below. This week I will get my Project Panda Website launched to showcase the entire journey. I already have Project Panda 2 in the works so I needed a place to post just my panda/eco tourism updates.

THIS JEWELRY DESIGNER IS ALWAYS ON THE LOOKOUT FOR INSPIRATION. THESE RED LANTERNS WERE BEING TAKEN DOWN WHILE WE WERE AT THE PANDA BASE FOLLOWING THE CHENGDU LANTERN SPRING FESTIVAL. IN MY OPINION THEY MADE DARNED FASHIONABLE EARRINGS!!
THE PRESENTATION OF THE ADOPTION CERTIFICATE BY THE DIRECTOR OF THE PANDA BASE
HERE IS THE CERTIFICATE WHICH IS IN A FOIL IMPRINTED LEATHER PRESENTATION FOLDER
I presented the Panda base with the book I created as a gift for them. They didn’t know which page to look at first. I’m SO glad they really liked it. My panda jewelry designs were pictured on most of the pages. The director seemed surprised to see “his” pandas pictured all over the pages!!
We loved the goodies that the directors at the panda base gave to us!!! OMG…so many wonderful treasures including a panda poo “scroll” with pandas painted on it! I’ll post a photo of all my panda loot later
One of the older pandas waiting to go outside. We fed her apples while she waited
Can you believe this feast they fed us for lunch?? This was the aftermath..AFTER a number of empty serving platters were taken away. We had lots of incredible local specialties from the Chengdu area
MORE TO COME!
