Day Seven - 31 Aug 08

Today we wore the same shirt we bought! (: That's Karen and Clar.We stopped at TianJin Lu and just cross the road, we reached the Jiang Tan Han Kou.

The place was beautiful. It's peaceful down there and the sun was gorgeous. (:

This are only some of them since while the remaining went to the church with Mr Puah.

The scenery there was awesome!

This picture was beautiful. (:

We love jumping shoots totally. :D

However while 3 of them are jumping, Suelin just slipped and fall onto the ground. And before we could react, she fell and we took the pictures.

Thankfully, she was strong and doing good with her injured knee! :D

See. we loveeeeee jumping shoots.

Team D without our dearest leader who went to the church.

The girls under the sizzling sun and looking good!
Since the path of Jiang Tan Han Kou was rather long, we had our ice-cream for RMB1 to cool us up.
My first time trying out ice lemon tea ice-cream!

Finishing the walking journey...

Next to Bu Xing Jie. That was associate with our S'pore Orchard Road. It's big and spaceous, tons of Nike shops.

Our same shirts! And we love it!

Team D with our leader Julian this time!

Weiling, Clar and I settled our lunch in Daicos. The burger was alright and the fries were rather salty! But it was filling!
Upon our trip for today, we saw people taking photoshoots and conclusion, the places we went must really be a beautiful place!
And OMG, I saw my handsome boy! :D

This was the place where the others had our lunch at. They ate Korean food and it seems nice. Too bad we didn't try any.

Lots of status in the middle of the road of Bu Xing Jie. And this is just one of it.

Sebas with her pink rabbit balloon. We love you Sebas and we are here for you! :D

After our volleyball (we just shared and bought a v.ball) and Weiling's jogging, went to the Ye Shi behind us again and this time I had Chao Mian.

Picture of the day.

Don't get it wrong. This is not Bao or something. This is the egg which Weiling used to rub her cheek for the or-ba-cut.

Cute isn't it? :D

While yesterday I keep complaining about the wet weather, today was indeed a good sunny day that I think most of us got sunburn. maybe some sun-tanning too!

While web-caming with my family, there's fireworks and the sound of fire crackers. So cool!

1. Singapore is our homeland; this is where we belong.

We treasure our heritage and take pride in shaping our own unique way of life.

Thought about it, and we shouldn't always comparing Singapore with Wuhan since both have their own unique and different lifestyle and way of living. We love our own country, but we already used to the way how Wuhan works! Adapting well I think!

(:

Tomorrow lesson starts. May it be a beautiful day. (:

CIAO!

Day Six - 30 Aug 08

Sixth! Woke up early to have our breakfast in the canteen. first time trying their man tou. bitter and sour taste that it doesn't suits our liking. It's also rather big that we can't finish.

It's been a long day today, had our city tour to the Hubei Provincial museum and Huang He Lou. An eye-opener for us as we get to know more about Wuhan's history and the building structures of long long time ago that we could only see in the TV shows.

This was taken when we are waiting for the bus to fetch us and it's a rainy day today. again ):

In the bus, with Clar, Willis and Teck Yi.

And this lady here is our tour guide for today. (:

Reached the Hubei Provincial museum and it was big. Pictures taken inside the museum.

This is the Chinese characters in regardless of tortoise shell, bronze script, classical chinese writing, small seal script, Qin official script, offical script and to the regular script which we are writing now. Rather interesting as we know how the Chinese words slowly transform and become the words now.

Below is the bronze scope which people used last time.

I like this, this is their pillow made of bamboo. Imagine this was used by the people like us now, nothing but complains we gave. How facinating that people from last century or even last last century used bamboo pillow to sleep on, but now we are using soft pillow to sleep.

Yes, this is the wig. But it's kinda scary when you realised that was unearthed from Tomb.

The horses and warriors during their was time.

I love jumping shoots. But before i become conscious, the picture behind me is the tomb2.

And... it's photo-taking time in the big lobby! :D

I guess, we are happy. (:

This was taken at the balcony and we are pointing to the dragon.

Finally, we had our lunch at Shou Yi Garden Snack Street.

The glutinous rice is good!

They tried the tang bao (:

Our last destination, Huang He Luo.

I bet this is the wooden chair which was sat by the bride and been carried to the house last time (:

Basically there's a story for this "ting yuan". This was built to memorable Li Bai (the famous poet), because as he was the best poet, however he come across to the poet who wrote that excellent poem that he thinks that he can't compare to him and will never write anymore better poems than the guy (I can't recall what's his name) that he decided to stop writing.

This is the poem that Li Bai thinks that he can't compare that. Can't see clearly? Below is the zoom-in version. :D

These are the unique stones that the shape of it is natural and not man-made.

There. The Huang He Tower.

The ticket to enter.

The view from the 2nd storey. Amazing isn't it.

Both of them bought the big pencil (:

And, p-i-c-t-u-r-e-s again!

It was real windy in the upper storeys (there's total of 6 storeys). Too windy and plus the rain, it's duper cold.

The view from 5th storey. The big bell is the "Qian Xi Zhong". Goong the goong and you'll be blessed. (:

The amount of money people throw and try their luck to aim into the bronze cup.

With the goong. (:

And, that was Team D, team D, and team D again! :D
Lastly, pictures for the day. Thanks to Shiuan! (:

Weather is a no-no. Walking in the rain with slippers on the road is a bad thing.
Collide the pictures and found that I look rather retard with the hat on.. Enjoyed myself today with lots of revelation. There's shopping tomorrow!

CIAO!
*and i spent my whole 3 hours on this entry!
