Short Summary Of My TripOk I shall try to keep my long-windedness to the minimum so my frens pls bear with it for a teeny little while k?
A scenery pic I took standing on a bridge whose name I forgot...
My dad and kid cousin playing guards... we were visiting this old prison used long long ago...
At at some waterfall, which is supposed to be the 3rd largest in the world... but as usual, I forgot the name...
Visiting an old town... I love visiting old towns... they have the interesting vendor stalls that sell the most interesting stuff...
Bro tryin to be funny...
I TOTALLY love China kids (countryside)... they are just so adorable and spunky, not the city ones though... China city kids are so damn spoilt and irritating...
Ooooh I gotta elaborate on this pic. The tour guide explained that this bridge is called the dunno wad bridge... something abt 3 years one. Meaning, when one dies rite... he/she will wait for his/her partner at this bridge for 3 years until he/she joins him/her. And so couples who walk across this bridge holding hands will be a couple again in their next life. My parents are both chinese educated and not the kind that expresses their love for each other openly, so I was SO surprised when my mum told my dad, "den we go walk across it lor". WAH! So SWEEET!!! I even took a video of them walking across the bridge. Awww.... anw it's just stg the locals believe in la... abt that myth of that bridge...
3 Day Cruise Across The Yangtze River...
My mum shaking hands with the captain of the ship...
Cruising down the 3 Gorges...
Taken in the Cruise room...
Bro at the bar...
The great dam. I am so amazed by this magnificent structure. At 12 midnight of the 3rd night on the ship, we entered the dam. We were IN the dam... dats the amazing thing. And my dad had to explain to mi and my bro how does the structure work, super duper amazing. I stayed up till 1 plus with my bro just to wait for the lowering of the water in each dam, and for the next gate to open to move into it. It's really one of the most amazing structure I ever saw... I even made a mental note to read up more specifically abt this great dam thingy when I'm back. Wow...
We were lucky enough to chance upon these Taoist display of kungfu. Took a few videos of it... powerful man...
In some park... I love this pic, the background is just so nice...
We got bored at some place and decided to mess with some of the statues over there... do I or my bro look more in agony at having our fingers chopped off by this ugly thing?
Meaningful / Interesting / Terok Signboards
Ok that's abt it... I had lyk 200 plus photos and only uploaded these... that's the best I can do alr... pls dun kill me if my blog still takes very long to load... haha...
