Chengdu!

For our annual company trip in mid May, we spent a few days in Sichuan, with our first stop in Chengdu.

I got to see the Pandas at the Chengdu Panda research center again. I could watch them all day!
 
 
We went to see a Sichuan Opera, which involved some sword throwing, with yours truly!
 
The coolest part of the show was the Sichuan Face Changing performance (Wikipedia Link). Performers changed faces in less than a second. One walked up to one of my coworkers for a handshake and POOF, new face!
