China pandas lift off for Taiwan - AP

When linked the Panda's names, "Tuan Tuan" and "Yuan Yuan" mean "reunion" in Chinese.

I enjoyed seeing a Panda baby in Washington DC's zoo, as well as Panda's closer to home in San Diego. One of my first stuffed animals was a Panda Bear I think my Father had gotten in Thailand.

Some Panda related Books:

• Dinner At The Panda Palace. English. Softcover.
• Panda Bear, Panda Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr./Eric Carle
• The Year of the Panda by Miriam Schlein

And of course the Learning Chinese DVD's Early Start DVD's all have Bao Bei the Panda
