WE LOVE GIANT PANDAS - ESPECIALLY FRIED WITH A LITTLE KUNG PAO SAUCE!
MONDAY! It’s the start of another week and the Riding4Beer® 2011 China Tour is in Chengdu. China! Okay, so why are we here in this smog filled, ugly gray concrete city of 5 million population? Sports? Yeah, right – when was the last time the Chengdu Dragons won the Superbowl? Entertainment? You’re kidding, right? – quick name 5 movies, name any movies that were written, filmed, edited, produced or even watched in Chengdu. Sex? Okay, well there is that, but we’ve heard it’s cheaper and faster in Beijing and we don’t like to waste money or time!
Folks, we’re here because of Giant Pandas! That’s right, this is the center of Panda-Land for the entire f’ing world! We spent an entire day (and 200 Yuan of Budwesier’s money – we do love our sponsor!) wandering around the Giant Panda Research Breeding Center (it was the “breeding” part that caught our attention). It’s a large park that they say covers 57 hectares (we think it was closer to 56) and contains 80% of all the Pandas in the world. In 6 hours we only saw two, so that means somewhere else in the world there is half of a panda if we did our math right!
So here’s the deal. The Chinese folks – commies that they are – spend a small fortune (they make by selling you cheap sh*t at Walmart) keeping these Pandas around, feeding them, washing them and forcing them to have sex so they’ll breed. REALLY? How do we get that job? Not the keeping and feeding and washing part – the part where they force us to have sex! Hell, they wouldn’t even have to force us! And one last thing, did you know that Pandas are not even bears? That’s right, the name “Panda Bear” is a fraud, sorta like New Mexico isn’t really new and isn’t really Mexico….
AGAIN! Only 3 pics uploaded - these took two hours! DAMN COMMUNIST CHINESE INTERNET!
Wherever breeding occurs - we want to be there! This is so you can hear the sounds of breeding!
80% of all the Panda in the world in this picture!
Hey this is Ryan, one of the three from the state department in Yangshuo. We just left Chendu a few days ago. Did you see the panda film? Apparently the mothers have a tendency to swat at their young shortly after being born. Sounds like a tactic we need to adopt. Lol

So the population of Panda's are about the same as the amount of money the Dodgers have? About $3. Yep the Dodgers filed for bankruptcy - too bad, so sad!

Sooo Cool!!! I am Finally jealous. This is my favorite post (because the animals are alive). That looks like a blast.
Hope everything is well. Can't wait for you guys to get home and show more pctures of the pandas!
