Took a French family to the panda base this morning. 7:30 AM opening, pandas at their most active — always the best time. I bring all my clients to Dujiangyan base instead of the main breeding center. Same pandas, way fewer crowds. One of the kids asked me why baby pandas are pink. Told her they don not get their black-and-white until three weeks old. She did not believe me until the guide confirmed it 😂
