Pandas in their private plane...

[fajrdrako]

I was excited to see this: news coverage of the arrival of Tian Tian and Yang Guang, in style, in their own plane, in Edinburgh. Being piped off the plane:

• Giant pandas Tian Tian and Yang Guang fly into Edinburgh airport
  
  
• News item in The Telegraph
  
  
• Greeted by Pandamonium
  
  
• The Guardian coverage with pictures - I love it that even their Fedex truck has their picture on it.
  
  
• Item announcing this back in January in The Guardian.
  

I imagine they're saying to each other: "What is this place? Hideous music? Cold? Rainy? Let's go home! Oh, wait... bamboo buffet. Let's stay."

We are so excited about the pandas - it really is a ray of sunshine in the news at the moment.

Apparently they have jet-lag, which I know is terrible, but that makes me smile at the thought.

Jet-lagged? I'd be jet-lagged too if I'd flown halfway across the world. In fact, I am always jet-lagged for my first day in Edinburgh...!

[katkim]

Yes, I would be too. It's amusing that their jet-lag made the news, though :)

[fajrdrako]

Yeah. Mine never does.
