Day 9

Hello! Today, everyone woke up early except me, as usual and we plan to go to the theme park! Sadly, we learnt from the public that the theme park closed down long ago. Now become something like a garden. Nonetheless, we still made our way there since we had nothing to do anyway. Turns out to be quite a fun place with lots of photogenic pictures. We realised they had 3 or 4 rides still operating there and decided to go for a couple of them - the mirror maze and a haunted shooting adventure. After that, we went for lunch at JUMBO restaurant which is on a ship. It was a cool experience and the food was well, affordable. We were either very hungry or the food was very nice cause everyone, including joanne wanted second servings! I was also telling them, the garden looks like the place where they always film those ancient china movie, like the imperial garden. Then, we realised we could rent costumes to take pictures and being adventurous, we went for the "photoshoot"!

I know everyone out there is laughing their heads off now but it was a great experience, though embarrasing. :/ We also took a speedboat to Xishi's (1 of the 4 beauties of China) house. We were like the only ones on the island which is kinda cool and the speedboat was fun! (Video at the end.) Had dinner at Auchan (our new hangout) and decided on a steamboat.


Thats us waiting for the bus. It's the first time we are taking the public transport here!

Boarding.

At night, we met up with connie's friend, DONG FANG, who brought us out of the campus for some good food and at the same time look around the place. It was a good experience to see life in China as you can say the campus was rather modern and limited shopping choices.

They have barbeque like everywhere and its 1RMB per stick. Its nice!
