A Day in HanKou

The day begin with downpours and cold wind blowing~
Both Kenneth & I were hopping for snow though it is impossible, well we did say hope right?
The cold freezing morning was warm up by a cup of hot red tea, bring back by the clique from canteen2 while both Kenneth and i waiting for them at the entrance to see if our bus had arrived.

Waiting~After a short journey ride of around 2 hours
we REACH HaKou !!! woot!

On the way to HanKou Shopping Street
from Han Kou Jiang Tan We had our lunch at ' Dicos '
Had a real bad experience there
and the food there does not taste good and the service is poor...

We does not have much choice due to the rain and hunger

introducing JIA HUI!!

Cristopher and Nicki

IT's TIME TO SHOP !!!
We went to many shops along the streets but this shop which i think is the best
' Meters/bonwe '
Love to go back and shop again~

Make a guess who is he..

He is Jay Chou.
i know don't look like him but it is.
A very different image especially with specs.

In China
if request for a carrier
an additional charge will impose on buying the carrier.

Normally for those supermarket thinner carrier cost 0.30Rmb
where in this shop where the carrier in a much better quilt cost 1Rmb.

This action is similar to Singapore first Wednesday of every month
where supermarkets such as NTUC fair-price will charge you if request for carrier
in which i think that here in China where this activity is on daily basis
which will reduce people in using carrier and save the environment

a vey old school fire-fighter water tap
not sure what is it called......

when free and easy time are going to an end,
we walk back to the HanJiang Tan to meet up with the rest

Han Kou Jiang Tan

Our tour guide
the last time we be seeing him..
Farewell. Hope that he will do well in his career.

As we will be passing The Yellow Crane area while back to campus
the tour guide ask us if we still want shop
more than half the group wanted to continue shopping
and was drop off at near the shopping district.

We went into a building where it sold all the imitation goods.

Happenings at night~

After we hae all done our shopping
we went to this food street and had our dinner.

Oh yea~
SOUP BUN for dinner!!
this time round the soup bun was way much more better the the previous.

We all had a second round of soup bun as it was too delicious~

hot juicy
SOUP BUN !!!!

Eating happily~

it indeed live up to its title
King of Soup Bun.

Time to go.
we took a taxi back to campus.

Bought a pair of converse imitation..
shoe size 44.
buying shoes in China is a tough task to complete
as most of the maximum shose size is 43.
why the locals have such small feet..

back at the bunk
after Ernest had his shower
he ran out and shout at me to take a look at the shower head..

Everything look fine from here..

now the you can even use the shower head as a PHONE !!
while you are still showering

Yup, thats right the showerhead broke off...
don't know what he has done to it..
poor showerhead...

Up next.
Global event concern about the climatic change:

8.30pm Saturday March 28, 2009
-Lights-off to see your world in a new light-

We off all the light in our appartment from 8.30pm till 9.30pm.
save the earth
even one can make a difference.

When we off our lights..
Out there on the road, houses are still lighted.
This event which started on 2008
with only 35 countries and over 400 cities supporting this event
Now Earth Hour 2009
with an increasing of 34 countries and more than 4,000 cities joined in this event
and beside saving the earth though only 60mins
but the money saved is a huge amount.

If China oso took part in this event
i think it would also motivate other countires to support this event

save the earth.
one does make a different.
