Shanghai oh Shanghai

After about a week of not writing, it is becoming hard for me to get back the hang of it. Not to worry, practice makes perfect! ;)

Backtracking to my Shanghai trip..

Too many things to remember, too little vocabulary available in my head right now. I'll just list them down.
~ China drivers, drives like daytona players. If only daytona has a honking device, it would provide an exact feel of the roads in china.
~ The toilets aren't as dirty as the last time i went there, in fact, it has become very much cleaner, even more than our very own malaysian toilets. 0.o
~ The histories in China never fails to catch my attention. I love the progression of how things become the way they are now, the road taken, what happened in the past... Bottomline, i am a kepoh-chee. :p
~ Shopping! Shanghai is a shopping heaven. Too bad we weren't given much time to shop.
~ In just the first few days, i have gained 5kg because of the 9 course meal everyday that consists of practically the same things. Only in the last 2 places did we get different spread of food.
~ The weather there was nice, not too cold but cold enough for walking around without getting frustrated and sleepy. During my holidays there, the coldest it had gone was 7 Celcius, and the hottest was about 25 celcius.
The second i stepped out of the plane in KLIA, the first thing that greeted me was the heat.

We did not only visited Shanghai, we went to Suzhou, Nanjing, Wuxi, Hangzhou and Wuzhen as well.

Anyway, here are a small fraction of the pictures. We took about 800 to a thousand pictures. Massive.


At the airport, before boarding. These are the ppl who went together, plus my cousin who took this picture.


The famous Shanghai Bund.


The opposite side of it.


Mummy and I


The beautifully lit Oriental Pearl Tower.


Cousin, Auntie, Bro and I.


At a temple, can't remember which now. lol.


Together with our national guide at Sun Yat Sen's memorial park.


The 10 year old who called me a little girl. -_-"

YES they are like Daytona players. And I realized that they seldom honk. They don't even curse. I find that, pretty amazing. hahahaha compared to the drivers here who honk and curse like mad.

The worst thing is when you try to cross the road. Because in M'sia you will have to look to your right but you'll have to look to the left in china!

OMG you went to hangzhou! Did they bring you to the lake called Xihu? I miss that place.

peixzan: yes, every chinese should go to china at least once. especially if you watch alot of those hk drama series, you'll connect the histories and the shows together, very interesting! :)
