Hey Everyone! If you’ve been keeping up with the other blogs then you’ll know that we’ve been on the hunt for flaming hot Cheetos! We got discouraged by the “spicy” Cheetos we found in Chengdu – unfortunately, they weren’t the same L BUT we haven’t given up hope and we’re still looking! Even though we only had a couple of days in Chengdu before we had to come back for work, we were able to do and see some cool things in the short time we had! We were able to check out Wenshuyuan Monastery (which was absolutely gorgeous), as well as the Kuanzhai ancient streets.
In other panda news, we haven’t had any cub births since Wang Jia’s a couple weeks ago, however all of the cubs are getting HUGE and are even cuter than the day before! I’ve attached an assortment of 2016 cubs photos that I’ve taken over the past couple of weeks! Hope you enjoy and hopefully there will be more to update on next week!
Duo Duo being adorable as usual!

P.S. We only have a little over a month left here in Ya’an which is crazy!
Thank you for the pictures! The Class pf 2016 was on The Today show this morning! Hope you get the right Cheetos soon! Where can I send some?
You’re so sweet! I think Celina’s mom, Mary, is bringing some over in two weeks when she visits for Celina’s birthday!
On what date is your internship finished? How long will it be until you return to the US?

Nice report of Xi Dou’s reputable female baby here. Her struggle to turnover video has been broadcasted by the news media recently. She is cute and lovely.
