Tibet Day 2: The Bears whom lack sleep











We wanted to go to Wolong Nature reserve, where pandas roam free. Due to rain, we went to a nearby research centers to get a close up on the huge bears instead. Here seen a Giant adult panda in his enclosure






A pair of pandas feasting, oblivious to strangers. Pandas seem to be grouped in pairs, their names are in pairs as well, with 双双 and 美美 etc.






Shhhh....Keep Quilt! Pandas are resting!






Panda having a good time after a meal. There's a video on this, went on for Minutes! HOHOHO






Sneaking up onto a Panda






One of the most endearing 30mins, watching 3 young cubs playing either each other, with 2 of them virtually wrestling each other and going for each others' throats!






This is the smaller specie of panda, looks very cute as well. Possible to pose with to have a picture taken, no such luck on our visit.






Parting shot ending with the the pair of playful pandas having a drink in the middle of their wrestling match. One of Wenhui's Goals fulfilled, to meet Pandas!!
