Longyang - 2nd home revisited
Jus like tat 22wks came to an end n we are all back in Spore...ya bye byes are hard at times but its also inevitable...5mths of transformation frm strangers to frenzs...come to think of it the small gp of 17 frm pudong area are pretty united...not sure if the next huge GIP batch tat goes over can achieve the level of camaraderie...sure bonding was tough at 1st tryin to accept pple tat u nvr met or knew existed b4...but thru the journey in Shanghai we learnt more abt the others n treated them as comrades...anyway starting to miss the hse i spent a sem ago...haha...definitely with my room at present...to all GIP peeps see if u remember some of these familiar places in our area

Beijing
Day 1
Ok so Beijing was realli qte the experience i shld say. Super cultural place with structures that are replicated everywhere. On the 1st day upon arrival, we were forced to walk to our hostel which was like i dont know 4k with our full load on cause the taxi drivers refused to bring us to the st citing that the place was too 麻烦 to get to.
Nice trees along the way
Aft walkin like 2hrs plus we pit-stop to get pic take n some much needed rest
Past by this frozen lake
Happi me at the ulu hostel after a road marching to the hostel for 3++ hrs
Nite at WangFuJing for dinner
Beijing burger all the wayy
Exotic food rulez
Turnin into scorpion king
Nice cathedral we passed by on the way back...
Day 2
Woke up early for the flag raising at Tiannamen Sq
Me n my trusty biscuit(lasted Dom n me for the 5days there)
The Flag rising was as solemn as those change guard duty at the Istana
1st attraction of the day...Emperor's Palace
How heng we were to take pic with one of the 933 DJs!!!
Nothin too fantastic inside
At the exit
Jingshan temple, one place we nvr go
Walked passed this toy area where senior citizens were playin ping pong using the fitness corner
Place of many drums...
Top of the tower
One time big big Gong
Chanced upon Sporean teachers there who brought us ard for gd eats in the local Hutongs (pic taken at their sch compound)
The mux try place if u go there, got to bk 1 day in advanced, think only if u local than will get to know abt this place...sadly we nvr got to eat it...
Hutongs that we brought ard by the Sporean teacher, too busy trying to catch up that we could not take pics (one of the few rare pics taken by Carmen)
There is a Earth n Heaven temple...today we went to the Earth one cause we feeling earthly...
Dinner was fantastic...had dong bei cai, my god the portions were disgustin n the food totally awesome!!!!
Monster balls (no wonder they are called 狮子头)
Outside the restuarant where we had one of our best meals...n only for Sing $6!!!!
Day 3 The Great Wall
Muz be the place to go if u r in China...as Rongxin would put it; after coming China now im only interested in mountains, lakes n walls...well said
Wakign up realli early to go
On the way there can start to see the fallen snow
Takin the cable car up to the wall
At the base...jus love the snowiness!!!
Up on the cable car w Brother Eilene
Breathtaking view hur
Mutianyu stairs up n down were an easy day
This part of the wall was strictly no entry but we went in anyway (its China u know)
Carmen says qte close to the ang mo's Smoky Mountains
下雪的北京!!! OMG it was soo cool!!!
Dinner was at QuanJuDe...famous roasted duck, 2 times duck added to the death list cause of us...yummy yummy
Day 4
Summer Palace...NEVER go there in winter...the lake is frozen n nothing much to see...
Chiem'ness written on the floor
Look wat is tat
The frozen lake...we nvr make it ard the lake
Tianamen as view at nite...
Dinner at the 狗不理包子 shop...supp to be famous in TianJin...as u can see the kind of grade i gave it
Day 5
Visit the Temple of Heaven (one of the better places in Beijing i muz say)...the place was like a giant CC area where the elderly were playin chess, singing, painting, sewing n 2 other games below...
Saw lots of Senior citizens playin this game where u are supp to keep the stick moving along w/o touchin the ground...not as easy as it looks
This was an other game that was played there...dancing ard while keepin the ball on the racket...somewat like the crystal ball game tat magician do...frm my posture u can tell i sux big time!!!
The main attraction at the Tian tang area...
Ninjas united
