7th Heaven

breakfast was okay okay even though i still can’t eat much.
not really used to the food there (dont slap me for saying this leh, i feel damn bad leh)

had some toast and bun. the toast right, got this guy keep loitering behind me and my dad (we took the last 3 pieces of bread to toast) and he look damn sad LOL.

okay ANYWAY.

very guilty. hearing everyone(almost) say that they didn’t sleep well. i slept SUPER WELL (thanks ah hot blanket) even though my head felt like they were about to burst the night before.

head off to the airport at around 8.30? (was it?)
the airport is just 10 minutes away from the hotel we stayed at.

arrived at the airport, and lots of girls were 拉客ing.

dont think clean. i MEAN they want us to go to their cafe to ‘休息一下’ and 顺便花点小钱之类的. you think i 傻的啊! so the tour people crowd around here yantee auntie crap LOL.

when going through the security thing, mina auntie brought some milk powder for gracia. then the customs people thought is drugs, so they made her eat some in front of them.

duh of course nothing happened lah. then yantee auntie say, she should act keesiao so the people will arrest her LOL.

pass time waiting for the plane by playing with gracia, asking her to find shapes and colours for me -.- doodled on pink post-its.

plane flight was so memorable. great till the extend that theres OBVIOUSLY SOMEONE SMOKING ON THE PLANE, but nobody seem to CARE or NOTICE.

wah fuck. really, if i say its cigarettes, it is. the disgusting stench won’t fool me. self-torture for around 30min- an hour.

no meals provided on plane, just a bottle of mineral water.

arrived back at KMG. had this dejavu  feeling when i walk past and see the place where the tour group first gathered.

anyway, saw xiaoduan jiejie again. happy sia, finally no need to trying to figure out what talking mr pauline.

theres a new girl called xiaozhang jie jie or sth. ASA gave us flowers to welcome us back. oh and yes, ms zhang is there to help us film videos and take pictures (at a cost, i mean the pix)

went for lunch. then go down to the 土产店 below the restaurant. wah. my parents go there sweep 宣威火腿.

L: my mom tio scammed in progress.
R: almost empty shelve.

all the ham ended up in the basket.

actually, it was the only reason my mom went to yunnan -.- to 搬火腿. so on the 7th day she finish buying i feel so empty. like i’m in china without a cause sian!

brought a whole box of ham and other goodies. total RMB 2500.
yes. count again.

the salesperson’s like she know my mom is 大金主, so keep attacking her, bring her around and stuff -.- yes my mom 耳根很软 also, easily tio scam by her. evil woman!!

xiaoduan jiejie very amused by what we all bought LOL. as in HOW MUCH WE ALL BOUGHT.

yantee auntie and mina auntie each spent about 1000RMB, not bad also.

my mami see the old lady selling this very kelian then buy one. 5RMB one packet, i think she know its not my style at all, but ANYWAY.

leeyy had a fun time undressing it when she came my house. ^^

a group photo.

went to 九乡, and theres this sampan thing for us to sail and 参观, but only to a certain extend. didn’t help at sailing at all. my parents kindhearted, helped to sail throughout. HAH.

they sail until 手酸。。

if we sail down that’ll be the end ^^

then go and visit all the 钟乳石 (is that what its called?)

dont worry, even if i stand straight i’ll nvr have a chance to knock onto that rock :D

eating lingzhi :D

btw while we’re there we saw a tv crew.

i open the lid and found leeyy inside!

behind is some 雌雄瀑布 thing.

神田. i think quite power leh, how come it exists like this ah?

in total we climbed 800 stair cases.

to a point most of the elderly buitahan already they got onto a sedan who have people to carry them up 200 staircases? believe me, I, YOUR HIGHNESS, EVEN FEEL EXHAUSTED CLIMBING THE STAIRS. AND IMAGINE YOU AND ANOTHER PERSON HAVE TO CARRY A PERSON (AVG 60KG) UP 200 STAIRCASE?

I RATHER SWEEP THE TOILETS!!!

WHEN I SAW THIS SIGN I WAS LIKE “YES. I AM FREE.”

and something unhappy lah. cause yantee auntie no change and tip them ‘ too little’ they started to scold her in yunnan’s native language. wah jialat sia me can understand, so when they walk down the say singaporean stingy and stuff, all i understand ^^

BY THE WAY, my parents and i and some other people climbeed 800 stairs instead of taking the sedan.

ah, and yantee auntie very upset. because she already PAID the actually cost for the sedan ride! and isn’t is more appropriate to receive the tip with a sense of GRATITUDE? she can choose not to give you know! and she didn’t force you to go so fast!! whats your friggin problem!

ANYWAY, mina auntie also very not happy. cause she carrying a 3 year old gracia, and the people carrying her say she also must pay for her child. WTF? 有天理吗?!

so they chatted with tour guide and we took cable cars to get out of this place.

i solo a cable car haha. its PINK!

here comes my pinky!

while i was on the thing, my leg was not on the stepping down thing.
when nearing the end point, i slightly lifted the bar and realise that it is actually loose. (the thing is not locked i might just fall down -.-)

GOOD JOB RIGHT. LOL.

we were scheduled to eat duck meat for dinner (famous and authentic, apparently.) but something cropped up and we had to settle last minute at some UHEM restaurant.

this is not erhu but san xian ^^

all the food have this chlorine like taste, probably because theres too much stones in the area and the water is affected.

couldn’t eat much, the chlorine taste is REALLY STRONG. even their ‘mock sprite’ taste like chlorine!!

checked in at some 3 star hotel called 双禄大酒店.
our room super big (cause got 3 beds) and then got mahjong table some more!

ate sweet potatoes and that bowl of cup noodles for ‘dinner’. 幸福啊!

December 16, 2009

&the SIXTH!

we left the villa after another night there. some how got sick about the milk thing and didn’t drink the night before.

hmm.

in the morning, i caught the golden snow mountain.
it appears golden as the sun that shone on the snow reflected the light back. didn’t take any picture but its staying in my mind :D

breakfast was the same. tried the mee.
and regretted sia. WHO EAT SO OILY AT 8AM CAN YOU TELL ME? CANNOT STAND IT!!

so i settled with some buns again, i guess.
(endlessly starving myself while i was there, i came back with 1kg weight loss. wait, is it mass or weight?)

took the shuttle bus again.
by this time we got onto a brand new bus with larger space but lesser seats. (tempo bus to shang-rila, bus plate no 101-99 i THINK.)

yesterday night the 师傅 of the old bus brought us to the place we wanted to explore and left already -.- (some to 古城 and some to 新城)

okay ANYWAY. first stop is 长江.

what 第一湾 thing. nothing much to see actually. according to xiaoduan jiejie, it appears that the 师傅 brought us to another view of the 长江. hmm.

oh and we changed tour guide there already, 小洁姐姐 disappear into thin air and changed to this male tibetan tour guide called pauline (who only speaks english, and quite hard to catch to boot). he looks a lot like 梁赫群 from 景行厅男孩 LOL. so i can’t help staring at him. (due to the resemblance. 梁赫群 is NOT handsome. dont believe go google)

the new driver is quite reckless on the way -.-
can’t really get used to it.

had lunch (steamboat).
it’s quite cold up there. 5thousand feet above sea level. around there i guess.

L: yes i look like Eskimo LOL.
R: the house is made of stones!! THAT SOME PIECES CAN BE REMOVED! (dont dare to take all out i scared the house collapse -.-)

quite amusing to see the mountains getting shorter and shorter as we almost got to the peak. oh. and if you happen to look down, theres like a VERY VERY VERY long distance between the villages at the foot of the mountain.

once you drop down, wahahahaha. *smirks*

okay so destination, got see some snow mountains.
梅里雪山 is basically the 重头戏.

took a very ‘fast’ cable car up there.
but our group quite lucky. (and unlucky)

because if the wind is too strong, we wont be able to get to the peak. but the sun was farking scorching that day. and the weather is so damn fine.

just that we won’t get to see the snowing sight (its okay can see snow i happy already)

before that, a pop quiz!
what is free on this world?

if you guys are going to say air, sorry to say your level of idiocy is hopeless already!

NOTHING IS FREE, WAKE UP PEOPLE.

WE HAD TO BUY OXYGEN CANS AT 49 RMB!!!
the tour guide recommended per pax, but our very stingy family (or smart, you can say, or just plain risky) bought one to share amongst 3.

eh pls. its around 10 bucks a can!

okay ANYWAY.

chanting ‘hom ma ni ma ni hom’ (JUST KIDDING, I CAN’T REMEMBER)

but some kind of chants lah, while turning the whole stretch of 筒s.

pointing good to the no smoking

the cable car we taking. (took four times in total, go halfway must switch)

the place at the top’s beautiful.

really chio. i like china’s skies LOL.

ANYWAY. its really cold.
but apparently mina’s auntie daughter (gracia) slept due to the lack of oxygen. zomg thats like so dangerous.

thats why she didn’t get to go up to the peak and she quite upset about it. hmm.

with yantee auntie who’s experiencing 高原反应..

must first contact with real snow! (byebye snow city!!!)

oh yeah we made it up!

yes i know its damn chio shade of blue.

sky moutain snow!

dunno what i doing LOL.

L: me using the oxygen can LOL.

R: overexposed ^^ i look like ET.

and this is the way you use it. i think i look like some Eskimo’s duck or sth.

this looks like whipped snow :D i think its because of the wind up there -.-

the mountain behind hor, we didn’t go. too lazy + no more energy.

so must do crazy pose.

nvr see unglam eskimo? heres your chance LOL.

oh ya the oxygen can was quite useful. cause activities on top is quite limited, and one flight of staircase can make me pant like some dog.

the oxygen eased the rate of my breathing.
to begin with, i dont really have healthy lungs ^^ (thanks, smokers!)

okay went down, the cable is fast until people walking downstairs is even faster than us (the people got 3 guys and a horse, then i tell me that they going to the west. to get some sutra. OKAY NOT FUNNY DONT LAUGH)

went down, then go some shangrila 古城 again? i think?
(OH YA I FORGOT TO MENTION MY MOM BOUGHT 300 RMB OF YAK MEAT AT LI JIANG’S XIN CHENG!!!!)

some calf skin and animal skin. you think its real? i dont know.

longest banner i’ve ever seen LOL. haven’t they heard “浓缩就是精华?!”

went to some 4 star hotel called 迪庆 sth hotel. FORGET IT. (i mean, me trying to recall the name.)

dinner that night was by far the most disgusting thing i’ve ever eaten.

the oiliness of the dishes was to the extend i had to empty the bowl of soup into my glass and refill the bowl with tea and wash the legumes/beans with tea and when i take it out the tea is full of oil AND the veggie is still OILY!!!

(try to absorb that a little)

the only thing i ate that night was beans, a little fish, and i guess, tea leaves -.- (at least 3 cups of tea)

before going back, me and dad went to this shop in the hotel to buy one pack of instant noodles in case i die of hunger (Y)

when we go back to the room, my dad feels that the room isn’t hot enough. so called up the hotel people to check the heater.

turns out that the heater is faulty (HENG HE CALLED IF NOT I BECOME FROZEN PORK MEAT)

they said fixing will take an hour or so, or gave us another alternative of installing hot blankets for us.

so we rather the hot blankets (DUH). now the background story is that if the heater will auto off at 1am cause they dont want visitors, who will have 高原反应 to get too comfy and die due to lack of oxygen.

oh anyway, i’m the victim of that 高原反应。i almost die that night. its like my head is a balloon and is about to get blown off -.-

thanks to the hot blanket. i slept VERY well that night.(not to mention early)
(while my mom go to karaoke with tour guide pauline, mina auntie and yantee auntie, and apparently she did the michael jackson’s touch the ‘there’ dance. thank heavens i didn’t go ^^)

;kc

December 15, 2009

Heartbeat 2pm CHIPMUNK version.

December 14, 2009

Fifth!

Finally one meal of breakfast that is plain.

TO THE OTHERS.

eff sia you tell me who can eat EGGS VEGGIE PORRIDGE AND MEE FOR BREAKFAST!?!

my kind of breakfast is bread/cake ZZ.
(or at the very least, cereals or biscuits with milk, please?)

BUT. its still considered less oily and bland.
all the adults see liao super happy, and requested for the next morning’s meal to be the same ^^

wah lao…

the view of the villa. chio right. just say yes wont die.

our housekeeper –>
we live at 8678-1!

take the shuttle bus out.. zzz the wind slapping me hard in the face.

heng got my powerful pink mask! if not my face got the slap marks already.

ANYWAY. first destination is to go watch 印象。丽江 on the snow mountain.

the snow mountain ish chio.

but the problem is i didn’t see ANY SNOW.

apparently, no one has ever climbed to the peak yet. i dunno lah. something about 至今未有人能征服. do your own inference, i not history student.

my sneaky old ah pek look.

anyway. apparently its quite boring (according to the others)

but i still think the performance is quite majestic.
wont post any pictures here, just visit my facebook.

oh ya not to forget. got one really funny incident.
theres this woman STANDING up and taking pictures of the performance.

now the problem is, theres people BEHIND HER. PAID MONEY. WANT TO WATCH THE SHOW ALSO!! then wah my mom sibei unhappy started to scream at her “坐下来!!你站住我们看什么看!!!!”

O_O wow my mom epic.

then THATS NOT ENOUGH.
the 厚颜无耻 woman, stood up after awhile again!!

this is prolly what others say as “屁股痒”, someone give her a scratch.

then mina auntie, sitting behind her, grip her shoulders and push her down LOL.

now, the problem is, you want to take pictures, fine! go ahead!
but she stood up for DAMN LONG.

okay so many people left halfway throughout the show. but as a performing arts student, i decided to show some respect and stay till the show finished -.-

then after the show we were crammed in this shop that is linked to the exit.

wah FUCK. seriously. like the WHOLE WORLD IS SMOKING!!!

i really couldn’t stand it inside!! the feeling is like the insides of you is crumbling and wilting away!! and the torture is like getting all your finger nails pulled out!! WAH!

okay ANYWAY. took a bus.


and we had this 包车 thing. visit the 蓝月谷. blue moon valley. a seriously very chio place that has the title of ‘小九寨沟’

yes i know very chio ^^ but not blue enough right!

tall tall.

cold cold.

yummy yak spotted! :D

theres yak (also known as 牦牛) in the water and let people ride on them.

ah funny sight. the yak shit into the water.
my father pointed it out to me hahahh.

and heres the amazing thing! the water is still fucking CLEAR!!!

as what yueyu would say, its underexposed.

L: trying to capture the smoke. (fail though)
R:  i think this is funny.

theres this uncle in our group that will keep doing bizarre poses while taking pictures. just imitating him ^^

pose two.

yakyak!

imitating.

since when i become so 清纯 i also dont know.
just kidding, dont puke yet, you have a long way to go!

the blue moon valley is…..

like BLUE! NO BROWN AT ALL. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE? OR IS THE YAK’S SHIT ISN’T  BROWN?! (this is why i say the 丽江古城 water is ORGANIC)

FUNNY GAHAHAGAHAGA. okay sorry.

mami you can stop now tyvm.

after we left the jade dragon snow mountain (玉龙雪山, the tour guide keep saying jade dragon snow mountain until it sounds like gdragon snow mountain HAHA) we continue our journey to the place also known as 神泉, to get some 神泉水.

my mom like super kiasu haha. she took like 1.5 litre bottle over to collect the water!!

the 1.5 litre bottle in hand!

theres also this wishing fountain thing. got a coin and wished for somethings ^^

the coin i tossed in together with my wishes into the outer circle!
this means theres a chance for my wish to come true. thanks in advance :D

i didn’t bring my jacket down to the 神泉 place, but the only place that feels damn cold is my hands. its still molting now. i mean, 脱皮,i guess.

then after that we went to the 螺旋藻(康诺) factory.

brainwashing us with all the good uses of spirulina, anyway bought quite a lot and still gulping down on daily basis. which reminds me, i haven’t drink 普洱茶 yet!! (MAMI GO BOIL SOME)

oh. and help lynn auntie bought some.

then next destination is 丽江新城.

basically same thing but with lesser people. (means less crowded, less smokers and less horse dung! :D :D)

yueyao! stop playing already you’re already bald!!

oh btw, this shows that xianyue most pro cause i dont see other instruments there WAHAHAHHA. ok relax.

i changed my mine about the dung. doesn’t seem to be any different.
the 古城 is slightly better i guess… wait. or is this the only place with dung?

my new gloves that spoils itself the night it was bought.

at night is free time, we can go everywhere we want. so we went 丽江古城 again.

yes, for KFC as dinner wahahahaha.

(we didn’t eat alot for dinner)

it was quite good ahaha.

and bought a new coat, 350 RMB from Me & City. dunno what kinda brand is that but can wear can alr.

lastly, went to the 古城to逛多几圈. me and parents ended up in this bar with good atmosphere and music and had some drinks.

(did that scare you?)

duh i underage. so apple juice (that can also get me high)
at 40 RMB (FUCK?!)

yes thats approx 8 bucks :D

趁火打劫!

so i tell my mom to wait for 3 years.
after that i’ll be an alcoholic so i can accompany my mami to puke all over the floor.

and my poor baba will have to clean all those up!
WAHAHHAH.

me with new coat and posing with 8 dollars.
(i think i look like juon)

took a taxi back to the villa. 15 RMB. it was faster than expected, we realise theres another route to get to our villa!

oh, and i want to say thanks to the chauffeur who waited for our family for awhile while we put on stuff back into the villa and got back to the bus. ^^

;kc

December 13, 2009

Ze 4th Daye.

Hotel breakfast was soso. nothing worth mentioning.

the hotel we stayed at.

can’t stay in the  hobby, dunno why all those people love to smoke so much.
so, i rather froze to death then to smell their fking smoke.

in the morning our faster destination to go visit some 塔.
apparently there’s 3 tower but 2 of them tilted due to some earthquake.

wait apparently its called. okay forget it.

the three towers thingy ^^

then we go on to 大理古城 to shop. its rather big with a lot of 城门.

nah i’m not faking a moustache. its just that too much smoke around. bleh.

the yang meh meh!!

longxutang dad bought. swept clean.

bought some 龙须糖. very soft and not too sweet!!
10 RMB per back, normally sold at $5 here.

(i bet you drooling)

this santa must had too much drinks.
HIS FACE LIKE DAMN RED!

my mami really good at bargaining.

the hair clips bought at 5RMB each LOL.

a whole plate of it. apparently its made of silver, but duh who will believe?

then she walk down and realised she should buy somemore.
but all the shop owners say one for 15RMB. then she used their native language and said “wah just now i buy there at 5 RMB!”

all owners stunned hahaha.

btw my mom is from yunnan, thats why she speak their language.

one point worth mentioning, the 云南十八怪。

my mom bought the 牛奶做成片片卖

okay depart.
then go 染坊.

nothing too much to mention, only the lady there look very old.

after that we continue our journey to go 丽江, which is like 100x chioer and nicer than 大理。(okay lah i know cannot compare like this, but still….)

on the way to 丽江,my family started to 啃瓜子(btw we registered together with yantee auntie they all as the 5th family. ANYWAY)

dad tore a pace of magazine and i throw all the shells inside. kachangputeh style!

i got sick of eating one at a time, so i decided to keep unshelling until i got a lot!

like that 才爽嘛!

on the way there encountered lots of doorless toilets again LOL.

then this is the 4 star toilet our tour guide brought us too. but she very far from the hotel cause she scared she get scolded LOL. (we’re not staying there.)

one of the two very interesting sights in the 丽江古城。

#1: a lot of 马粪. smacked down right in the middle of the road.
i guess because its for the tourists mah, let them ride horse through the 古城。 even the 古城 is organic!

#2: a lot of dogs. i even captured a really interesting video of dogs mating. and then suddenly this woman with the supersized dog came into the video. and she still ask me to stop shooting RAH! YOU RUN INTO MY SCENE WHAT COULD I DO. _|_

丽江古城 is super beautiful. even though 大理古城 also has like a drain for flowing water, lijiang definitely win.

less polluted, and has seagrass and fishes swimming against the current!

and the so called river there is melted from the snow mountain there. (maybe not polluted, but definitely ORGANIC)

*hug cause quite cold -.-*

btw, my definition of organic is shit. dont laugh.

the seagrass as mentioned.

the dogs mating scene as mentioned. got the video though ^^

gracia not looking at the camelah!!

then at night after dinner (actually quite determined to eat KFC cause yantee auntie sneaked to buy some during the tour)

oh ya before i forget, in lijiang, our tour guide is a girl called 小洁. or jessy/jessie. same english name as xiaoduan jie jie LOL.

(and i was thinking will there be any guide called xiaojie!!)

she’s the second best tour guide ^_^
why dont the male tour guides go home and sleep? D:

in li jiang, females are addressed as 胖金妹 and males as 胖金哥.
they 以胖唯美,以黑为贵 or something like that lah.

then yantee auntie super unhappy. got this salesperson in lijiang old city call her “胖金妹,别走啊!” then she say “你叫我胖我为什么要跟你买东西!”

-.-

at night, check in to this really chio five star villa (though abit inaccessible) called the 观方别墅 sth like that.

like mentioned, its a VILLA so its like friggin big. we even have chauffeur (super inconvenient) and a house-keeper.

4 families had to share a villa/ 2 families share one.

the bedroom. 加床 for 3 pax.

shared with yantee auntie (DUH), mr old uncle old auntie (WHO KEEP SMOKING IN THE HOUSE SIA FUCK.), uncle carrod and auntie phoebe.

the other two families each had two children so they —> another villa.

apparently i thought the idea of a housekeeper was quite good, but mina auntie said actually the housekeeper very AP -.-

anyway. she prepared milk for everyone for ’supper’

oh ya before i forget theres internet access there (like FINALLY!)

but guess what! facebook is banned (DUH)
and i can’t be bothered to go MSN (i bet its banned too)

damn it.

nights for the day.

December 13, 2009

My 3rd day in Yunnan

okay lets continue.

in the morning, had the exact same breakfast style as 2nd day..
checked-out. we’re proceeding to Dali!

*大理风光 music starts to play in the background*

okay on the way to dali, the road was very misty! the uncle couldn’t see well and can still drive.

师傅,您真内行!

see the mist?

first stop, dinosaur valley. DV. (not RV)

dinosaurs roar.

this picture got yueyu laughing for dont know how long.

i just had some inspiration. i saw the statue, rush over to my dad and borrow his shades, then started posing. notice the angle, glasses and the shiny forehead.

R: this can be really scary -.- i look like a dinosaur myself.

rah. enlarge for facial expression.
(DONT EVERY TIME I ASK YOU ENLARGE YOU REALLY GO ENLARGE CAN.)

at the other part, gonna watch a film about dinosaur extinction.

my dad made gracia cry by scaring her the dinosaur will eat her up.
then she begin to cry and run towards uncle carrod.

me and leeyy decided that she’ll be the right and i’ll be the left.

but i can’t help to think this looks like IRENE.
or is it just me?

btw just a little background information about this weirdos.

they’re just products of overactive imagination, like if the dinosaurs didn’t extinct and evolve into humans, this is how they will look like, also known as 恐人.

OS/ heng they extinct sia!!

playing the dance dance thing. i damn noob luh.
still got a lot of other games there. like running one and stuff.

all revolved around dinosaurs though. *DUH*

apparent this two dinosaurs is called 肿头 sth sth.
i can see why. prolly because they knock each other too hard in the head.

awww.

theres a free keychain for everyone! :D

okay sorry about my face.

we took shuttle buses to go around inside the dinosaur valely. zzz damn cold haha. (the wind smacking heartlessly on my face)

lunch was at the dinosaur valley there.

L: in the toilet. SERIOUSLY.
R: my mom’s ‘nike’ hat at 10 RMB.

i like this shot!

so unoriginal -.-

then continue to our trip to dali.

went to some 新城 something.

this is like the starting point of how we gonna climb alot of stairs for the rest of the journey. buitahan.

dali is very windy and only me and my dad went up the staircase. my dad gave up halfway though to take care of gracia. i went all up. nothing interesting there.

got the 沧桑 feeling not? like old lady in white, hugging a white kid.
she looks so ’strugglable’ because she’s looking at the kite.

wah damn tired. T_T

the 新城 view when you get to the top.

our tour guide for dali is something 赵 one. i think you can call him 赵哥 if you want to. (hopefully not) his engrish T_T

lousiest tour guide for our 9 days trip.

second destination is 洱海胡. out of the (苍山洱海)

yes. apparently everyone calls their lake a ’sea’.

dunno why.

and its named like this because it represents an EAR.

we also climb another staircase to get the full view of erhaihu.

tour guide say we only have 15 minutes. but who cares? :P

wah the staircase.. around 30-40 left T_T buitahan alr.

L: finally reached WAHAH,

R: so must camwhore more on top.

wo shi superman!

if you notice, my feet is like down the drain alr.

woof! year of the DOG.

maple leave part one. is this maple leave? dunno.

signature pose: pull the ear.

next destination is 张家花园.
theres a performance to show us more about dali’s main 民族’s culture.
oh btw. we address the ladies there as 金花 and guys as 阿庞哥(sth like that).

in kunming we say 阿诗玛 and 阿黑哥.

the three cups of tea served. the first cup was obviously okay (empty)
apparently, the second cup is ginger tea. dranked a little.
the last cup, heard it was so horrendous that i didn’t even touch it.

the interior design was quite pretty. a lot of marble here and there(now then i know 大理石(marble) is from dali!!!)

then evening, checked in at 风花雪月大酒店,also known as regent hotel.
5 stars one neh.

spot the mistake! (dunno ask me)

during dinner there was this auction for painting. damn sad nobody bought anything. the artist seem to be so nonchalant about it and continued drawing. then my dad keep saying ‘画家很落魄的,可能到死他的画才会出名”

feel damn sad -.-

the view of our hotel. our room nearest to the entrace ^^

after dinner went walk walk around. but the 故城 dont have anyone there liao.

did the baofuling mask there. mom was injured (while opening a bottle cap wth)
why i look so emo i also dont know. didn’t smile, fear of anymore potential wrinkles haha.

okay bye.

December 12, 2009

My First and Second Day in Yunnan

i’m like fucking troubled now. seriously, how am i supposed to blog with SO MUCH PHOTOS?!

weiren calculated and say its like taking a picture every two minutes.
anyway, total photo count s= 2500(approx)
