day 1

DAY 1 AT SHANGHAI

1st time tk plane, I actually got nervous when the plane started go up.
you know normally when u go funfair and play those exciting stuff, they alwiz fall down when they reach a certain height. dunno why I actually hoping it to be fallin down. FORTUNATELY it didn't happen.

see how beautiful the sky is.


while reaching Shanghai.

ok.. let's use one word to describe today's Shanghai (to me).

Freezing!

actually expecting the weather to be like.. 15'C, on the plane they announce it was 10'C. but at night, it's 5'C! and i only wearing 2 layers!!!!!

to help u understd the coldness:
let's imagine u standing in an air-con room, n somebody keep pouring ICE WATER on ur face, constantly, non-stop, till the point where u cannot breath.. den u try to geng, ur shoulder n neck stressed, ur hands are numb, ur legs are heavy, n finally u K.O.

anyway, you will never understd until u experience it.

reached hotel is ard 3pm, but outside is already getting darker.
although there's no time diff between Shanghai and Singapore, but 5pm here looks like 6-7pm. Day is shorter during winter days, which is VERY GOOD, truly "the night is still young".

we had steamboat for dinner.
the restaurant was very crowded, but we manage to get a seat after like..30 minutes?

guess what's it.


look like ban mian rite? it's beancurd.

i dunno how to describe the texture, something like noodles? fillin, and it tastes good! in front is the peanut chilli sauce, sounds weird? but it's good.

surprisingly for this dinner, I ate more veggie than meat.
tell u la, the meat here really cannot make it; tasteless and chewy.
the veggie is sooooooooooo good, fresh and sweet (nature), think I really dun mind to become a pure vegetarian here.. muahaha.


Everyone knows Shanghai got beautiful night view rite?
I heard it's much prettier than HK's.. well..*shrug* I nv seen HK's one wht.

FYI, the building light off on 10:30pm everyday. so if u wan to take a full beautiful night scene, camp at a good spot earlier. It was too late when i got there(good spot) so.. these are wht I got.








beautiful buildings


p/s: heard that the night life here is so so much more happening than SG.
so tempted. I really really wan to go n experience it, but.. not with my bosses of cos *lol*
