Friday, October 10, 2008And now, heres the most exciting trip of my life so far...8 days beijing/inner mongolia!!Oct 1st is China's national day, and unlike us, its a big thing here....we all get 1 week's break from work!!Planning a trip in China is not the easiest of all, as planes are not as budget...trains are the way to go. And 13billion people certainly doesnt fit into that few trains that they have on the tracks,so theres always a frenzy when it comes to train tickets...i had to queue 2 hrs and go to work late before i got my tics...  1st stop, shanghai to beijing!! 
next was the Forbidden City! i was there before, but the details and history of it was so rich i didnt mind goin to revisit it again!! This time round i got to see more as well, coz the last time they were preparing for olympics!! And hell, the entrance is not ex la, my tour agent last time must have made a killing on us!!   Wang fu jing Food Street was crazy!!haha..my fav was the 'Bing Tang hu lu' , the fruits were fresh and it didnt seem very sweet!the things you get to eat there is crazy, from different local eats to starfish,centipede, bees,seahorse, and goat penis!!! Any takers!?...errr..i didnt try any tho..haha... I also went to Beijing Univeristy, tiong lee's sister is studying there!! Its really huge and their class rooms are really nice...their dorms are bad tho...like sg in the 80s!!haha...oH n i also found out Johnny(rv ELDDS) is yun's(tiong lee's sis) coursemate...rang him up, but he din haf time to meet up...too bad....wat a conincident! One World One Dream....how can i not have a piece of the olympics!!haha...we headed to the olympic village....they dont sell tics at the venue itself, but theres nothing u cant get in china! Black market is always ard, even in broad day light! Go in and see only, also quite high!!haha..the bird nest is really big...but the whole olympic village is even bigger..its like a mega town...like so much open space...got its on train station, park, exhibition area...

Its called heaven temple, but we din get to pray..haha..but i guess we were more interested in taking photos with the scenaries!Oh and theres a spot,where by right it is the closest distance between us and heaven!! and thanks to the proximity, wishes are said to have a better chance of being granted!!haha...i made 1!
Ending our beijing journey with a nice sumptous dinner n dessert with yun, we prepared ourselves for the highlight!! Part 2: Inner Mongo!!
