Wow, good job on the giant panda!
And everything else, of course!
That’s great, I’m very jealous. Do you have pictures from this trip posted anywhere?
Cheers!

I think I know where you saw the Giant Panda.
I was there with Roland in 2017.
Unfortunately we interrupted the climb halfway due to miserable conditions with light rain, fog and muddy/slippery path.
As I understand it, it is a fairly good chance to see them here and should be the “easiest” place to see Giant Panda in China these days.
Great sighting!
