wahahah china has been really fun!
though i felt a little awkward at some points in time..
heres what i did.
17th dec - first day
arrived at guangzhou airport at 12 plus i think?
it wasnt as cold as i thought it would be (tho now it is!)
叔叔 and his driver came to fetch us from the airport.
went to 叔叔's house and rested for awhile i think, had lunch, then pap and i went shopping.
i dont think i really bought anything.
then went back for dinner and stayed in the house.
mostly i stayed in my room which was on the 2nd floor!(:
there's a third floor which is the garden.
oh then i went to 7 eleven to buy some food.
there's like zero snacks in the house?!
and those who know me know i can't survive like that. x)
i'm quite sure i've gained weight zz.
no exercise, and eat eat eat.
they eat more than 1 bowl of rice for every meal, with lots of other 菜。
18th dec - 2nd day
woke up early at 6, then cabbed to some place where we took a tour bus to zhaoqing.
yup with a tour group.
bus ride was abt 2 hours plus?
then went walk walk around 七星园（？）
super fun!
-okay i shall continue later tonight when i come home. going out now-
went into caves, temples, and saw the 7 mountains.
the air there was super fresh, unlike guangzhou's, damn polluted.
had to boat across some very clear rivers, and through a cave.
at all the temples those monks kept pestering my dad to get his fortune told haha.
some were more straight forward - they just asked for donations.
the first one that asked my dad to get his fortune told, my dad agreed to.
at the end of everything he kept asking my dad to donate money hahaha.
and my dad being a stingy money faced refused to.
damn hilarious.
maybe my dad looks rich O.O
oh and we had our pictures 弄ed onto cups.
two cups.
quite nice(:
6 sing $ only!
cheapcheap.
the 风景 at the place was very nice too heh.
will upload pics when i get home! (:
after visiting the place we went back to the hotel and rested for awhile, then went shopping!
zz shopping with my dad is horrible.
firstly he doesnt want me to buy anything.
secondly he just wants to walk and walk and walk - if you stop him to look at stuff he gets irritated.
thirdly in some weird logic when you stop he expects you to buy stuff, and if you dont, he indirectly says youre wasting time .__.
so in the end we went back at around 7.
oh we left the hotel at 4plus.
the other couple from the tour at our hotel went out till 11plus luh!
there was that much to look at at zhaoqing.
and thanks to my dad we didnt look.
bley i wish mum was here DD:
shopping would have been much much more fun heh(:
anyway at least i bought 3 pairs of socks, 1 pair at 2 china $ haha!
which is 40cents in sing $ LOL.
19th dec - 3rd day
met the tour group people then went to some mountain.
forgot the name heh.
took the tram/bus up some way of the mountain, then got down then climb climb.
at the same time see 风景。
the 风景 there was quite pretty too.
we climbed up, then climbed down.
there was this beautiful waterfall/spring/lake thingy.
will upload pics! :D
yknow there was this old old ancient couple with us, around mid 60s-70s (okay not that ancient)!
they climbed the mountains and everything at same speed at the rest of us young people O.O
super pro!
and they were like super happy and cheerful taking pics of everything haha.
when we were finished with the mountain, we bused back to guangzhou.
Then went back to 叔叔's house.
Hahaha my dad no stamina.
aft climbing mountain he was super tired haha.
20th dec - 4th day
went to guangzhou's largest bookshop with tang lu (cousin） and pap.
tanglu can speak english!
yay!
at least there's someone i can speak to (apart from dad) in something other than chinese ._.
hes 19 i think, and studying in some university called 中大 for short.
ranked 10th in china i think.
bought some books at the bookstore then went for lunch.
lunch was some sort of reunion.
met people i havent seen in years, and people i havent seen before heh.
food was yummy.
then aft that went 'touring' around guangzhou with shushu, shu chen (cousin) baobao (small little cute cousin), nainai, and pap.
just for a short while.
then went back shushu's house sleep and eat and read books(:
21st dec - 5th day
slack ard in the morning.
went out for lunch.
then went zoo!
funfunfun.
the first one was a safari.
drive the car through then see animals.
some of the not dangerous ones were just roaming around.
like camels, ostriches, peacocks, deers, and all those weird birds.
there was one time when one camel just stood infront of us and refused to move for a whole 10 minutes haha!
then another time when an ostritch stopped in between our car and shushu's friend's car, and LAYED AN EGG O.O
still got alot alot more but i shant say now haha.
then we went to the other side where its a normal walk on foot zoo.
many many animals.
there were PANDAS and KOALAS O.O
first time seeing them.
yknow you could hold a baby white tiger and feed it from a milk bottle in that zoo?
but need to pay alot alot and need to wait till the tiger's hungry.
i shall just post this first and continue later on or some other day.
i'm tired.
