8th day..

It is so much better when I don't have to speak in Mandarin.. The people here understand english.. And one that is good from today is that.. It's not all about plaza but.. Somehow I begin to realize that people there uses walking more then car.. But it's great there.. Especially the traditional market there.. It's great..

But.. I still couldn't adapt with the food there... It's like no rice at all.. It's all about meat, meat and meat..

7th day..

I admit my mandarin is not good.. Well.. I can read but somehow I don't understand the meaning.. I know for u mandarin expert.. It's like you are thinking that I am a fool.. Some kind of fool.. But I don't mind..

And that's my point.. For the second time my mandarin is tested for once more.. When I have to order some burgers from mcdonald.. It's not like before.. Because sometimes people there could understand and speak in english.. But somehow on the other part of mcdonald here.. They don't understand english.. And because of this.. I am a fool once again.. Pointing the things I want to eat and with my fingers to show how many I want..

Sometimes I got the feeling of not so good whenever I am force by my two parents to talk and speak in English but if i were to choose to speak in mandarin or english.. Maybe it's not a question because I can speak english but not too much in mandarin..

So talking about my trip.. The flight were good.. Maybe the airplane is too big.. And when "udara kosong (I don't know how to mention it in English but.. That's the best term I got)" comes I didn't feel anything like moving up and down.. Or maybe there is no such thing as "udara kosong" when we were on the plane..

But when we arrived.. We don't have that chance other then roaming around the hotel's plaza..
It is just good.. But.. Let me tell u one thing.. The food there is without chilly so I missed chilly so much..

6th day..

My vacation is not always all about "happiness", excitement.. etc.. Sometimes it's all about tired, tired and tired.. And boring at the same time.. So yesterday is a lot better then my today.. Today has something to do with going to plaza, and afternoon at hotel.. Sometimes it's good to rest but not too much please.. a 6 hours rest on the afternoon hours..

Maybe if I didn't complain on the past days.. Or even hope that such a wish like "spending more time to rest" will be granted.. Well.. I should somehow admit it the hotel in hangzhou is better then the one in Shanghai.. Both named "holiday inn.." But so much of differences..

But it's good to say that I will be going to Hongkong by airplane on 2 o'clock tomorrow.. So somehow it is not that regretful to rest.. At least I still have time to enjoy my vacation..

5th day..

Our roaming around didn't work today.. Because we spent almost our afternoon and evening at Shanghai Expo.. It all begins with the one in China.. We have to Q for almost 30 minutes before our turn.. When we move inside the lift.. I thought we will not have to Q anymore.. But then that's when the pushing and pulling happens.. We should really Q and worse there are no proper line for the Q.. Once the door opened.. Then you will see a group of bison going forward without even thinking if they have cut the line.. The presentation if I am not mistaken is "The road to our beautiful life".. It is interesting because it is shown on three screen.. From different direction..

Things are going good when we don't have to Q anymore.. On your different directions were the materials from the past.. And if u went there.. Then u know about the moving things on the map.. And the Qinshihuang thingy.. About the national treasure..

And If I am not mistaken.. It was the beautiful crystal.. Flashing different colours.. And things are going so much better when u walk along the corridor and u see different kids with their arts.. I thought it will end there but then... U still have to Q for the ride.. I thought the ride won't be exciting.. But then it was one of the most interesting.. So after that it was the.. I forgot but..

I remember going to a beautiful spherical building.. It is not country's pavilion but somehow a plaza.. Where there are theater there.. And.. I don't remember anything except for my last visit to the Indonesia's pavilion.. Well.. I didn't expect Indonesia's pavilion will be so nice.. and if u enter then u will see the map of indonesia with bright lights.. And the habitats of flowers, birds, animals..

It was just fantastic because it's all about Indonesia.. Really everything about Indonesia is there.. I mean important facts about Indonesia.. I remember the Borobudur thing and it all ends with different kinds of becak.. And finally what I really miss about indonesia.. Their food and their chilly.. I can finally taste them because in China, Hongkong, Macau.. U can hardly taste any thing as chilly.. And so I spent my eating time at the warung called sedap?? I forgot but the food is delicious.. So today was so memorable.. Because it's my first time attending an "expo"..

4th day..

After a tiring day yesterday.. We have ourselves prepared and finally standing and waiting for the mini bus to come.. At about 8 o'clock we have ourselves sitting at the car.. And just like our agreement with the driver.. He stopped at a place called si tang.. I thought it was a full picture of a dynasty.. But then it was a combination of an "old" city.. So it is not that interesting for me... And I thought every kingdom will be like the forbidden kingdom.. But it's okay..

So we spent almost 2 hours there.. And finally we have ourselves stick again at the chair of the car..
We arrive there early and we are in a hotel named holiday inn.. First I thought the room will be as good as the one in hangzhou.. But unfortunately it's not..

So no important things happened.. As.. We spent almost 24 hours walking through the nearby roads.. And adapting ourselves to it..

3rd day..

We were surprised to see that most people there uses bicycle.. But somehow I begin to like it.. Why?? Because it seems so natural like the people in the late 1900s.. But the good atmosphere there.. Is not a guarantee for a good long day..

We were striking it out in search of a mini bus (that's the term they use for a larger term of taxi).. And will u believe me if this word called mini bus will change the day?? I mean we are using the word "van" to describe it and they don't even understand it.. So we were roaming to nowhere around Hangzhou.. And finally we ended up calling mini bus in hotel.. So u won't understand how tiring it was.. Because it is my day-mare so far..

And like I said before.. I am not so much into plaza because of shopping and....... How I want to see my sister's disappointing face.. I visited a lot of plaza and it is not even better then sun plaza... See.. It was a tiring day but enjoyable day.. But I forgot to mention this thing.. U know nowadays every supermarket has their tonnes of plastic bags just beside their cashier and to make our life easier.. But there to make our life easier and easier.. They won't provide us any plastic bags.. So get my idea?? U should be taking your own.. Haha.. Bye for now..

2nd day..

So we were just lucky that we have stayed and relaxed for at least one day before the transit to Hangzhou.. I mean sometimes people would just get too much excitement when it comes to holiday and.. Let me give u example : we are going to KL through airplane and it is day time and on the night we have to have a ride on other airplane to reach a place called Hangzhou..

We were going to the airport on 1 and arrived there nearly 2.. And we didn't even have a full minute to catch our breath because our parents were just to hurry to check in.. Maybe it is because it is so much when it is a 16 day trip and our luggage were half ton.. and we can't really move so freely..

We arrived at HangZhou nearly 11 and that's good news because we don't have to wait for immigration.. We hurried ourselves to the taxi... Anyway there are problems of having 6 people during your holiday and worse it is a 2 adult and 4 kids (1 teenager).. The taxi wouldn't want to take us to a place called holiday inn.. That's a hotel for your information.. So we spent almost 30 minutes on searching for a bigger term of taxi.. And finally we find one that's kia carnival if i am not mistaken so we arrived there and have a really good sleep..

1st..

Sometimes its good to say that it is my first day of my long vacation.. So at least you have plenty more days to relax.. But like I said before I was some kind of excited.. Excited of how the atmosphere there would be.. But no surprise that KL always have tourist on them.. I mean along the Bukit bintang thingy.. You can see so much tourist speaking in different kind of languages.. Sometimes it is just that annoying when you do not understand what's the talking all about..

And what I am more about is that when it comes to shopping.. Girls are girls.. And that's why I hate going to plaza.. But it's a good day.. Where I finally could wake up at 8 the next morning..
