Eight Years Celebrated in AnNing

Our anniversary was June 3rd, eight years. Wow time flies. This year we had a couple of friends watch the kids for the day and Julie and I went to An Ning, a city about one hour away from Kunming by bus. We went to AnNing for its famous hot springs and the fact that it didn't make the lonely planet China tour book, so it isn't crawling with tourists. We ended up going to the "golden forest hot springs", which turned out to be a real decent place. It had a little bit of Chinese styled junk, but wasn't over the top. The grounds of the hot springs were dotted by small pools, each with its own style. There was a milk spring, a rose spring, and a candy apple spring. It was really great and relaxing. Overall, a really excellent experience. A little chronology of our anniversaries for those who care:
