5th day - 12/03/11

HELLO EVERYONE!!! It’s day 5 and it is a Saturday!! As the teacher had already mentioned the day before, it will be a free and easy day today. A day for us to explore around Tianjin. Me and my roommate Rachel was sleeping in Ai jing and Kristabel’s room yesterday and today when we wake up, we had a lot of laughter cause I went to prank call the rest and end up make a mistake and called Mr Tan. We were all laughing like crazy in the room and when it was 10.10 me and Rachel went up to our room to prepare ourselves to go out and we meet the rest 10.30 in the lobby.

After much discussion, we decided to make 南市食品街 (nan shi shi ping jie) our first stop. So the whole group of 19 of us makes our way to the bus stop nearby and took bus number 829 to go there. It was the first time we took the bus transport here in Tianjin and somemore it’s on our own! The bus was crowded and all of us just squeeze up the bus and I was feeling warm in the bus cause too crowded. Plus the weather today not say very cold either. When we reach the南市食品街 we took some photos and went in. There were so many foods down there and all look very delicious. We went to buy and try some of the foods there and it was nice! I also then buy a box of Tie Guai Yin (a kind of tea) from there also. Took many pictures from there.

Then after all the eating and looking around, we move on to 古文化街 (gu wen hua jie). I must seriously say I love the building and atmosphere there! It is super super nice!! Buy quite some stuff there also. Chopsticks souvenirs, a nice looking bag for my mum and sunglasses for me. Really enjoy shopping and looking around the place. I even had my portrait drawn by a guy but it does not look totally alike like me~ but it is a nice experience because in Singapore it is quite expensive but here is okay~ can afford it. Really hope to have a chance to go there again and take even more pictures.

By then, it was around evening already, so we decided to have PizzaHut for dinner and then to Carrefour to buy some necessary items and then head back to hotel. Thus I am now in my room after having the role call in Mr Tan’s room~
