Guilin Trip #1

After long hour of hectic life that blowfish go thru recently at last blowfish pack everything and swim to somewhere far2 away from work, far2 away from everything that bother her.

On 21Jan, Swim....................
After thousand of hours at last blowfish reach her destination place - China GUILIN
First reach there, blowfish really feel boring as along the road from airport to the hotel blowfish see a lot of old houses which being abandon(荒凉). Suddenly feeling abit down as blowfish is kind of fish tat like（热闹）city view whereby we can see a lot ppl walking around. Probably blowfish just afraid to be alone need to see a lot of ppl around blowfish eventhough blowfish just at the corner of the crowd.

Luckily when the van reach the town, the guilin town look exactly like all those big city. Busy and full of building. When reach the hotel, the receptionist very friendly guide us on the famous spot of guilin. Look at her friendly smile, deep in blowfish heart she still don want believe that china got good ppl :-p(even mom scold blowfish should not cox of one black spot then categorize that whole paper is bad quality).

First day blowfish+family go to emperor housing area(江靖王府), blowfish really like to visit all those historical building listen to all story on their culture. That day is whole day raining day really potong steam la =.=

Entrance fees: 80RMB

From the picture, the tree that grow around the building really look like dragon craw, dont u think so. Really amazing. Behind the building is a small mountain where by in term of feng shui very good as providing protection(靠山) to the house owner. The mountain is located middle of the guilin city and if we climb up there can see the whole guilin city but too bad blowfish family doesnt let blowfish do that as raining day will have safety issue to climb the hill :(

Night time we go for river cruise around guilin area, night time everybody feel very cold. Blowfish body sensor really slow abit as she still feel can take it meanwhile other already put on 3-4 cloth :-p

Entrance fees: 130RMB

River cruise on the 两江四湖 really nice, we can see those lighting effect on the ling long ta and the bridge along guilin city. Only one thing potong steam is the couple keep on shouting whenever see the scenery =.= adui they cannot just diam2 hugging there without making all the noise polution :-p

22th Jan, continue swimming around to yang shuo(阳朔）
Blowfish so proud and go teasing all ppl :-p who know the next day blowfish start to regret :-p
Second day we go for Li river cruise, the misty scenery(due to rain) really nice but the bad part is if want to see all the nice scenery u need to stand under the rain and strong wind. Blowfish start shivering as she only wear one jacket and one singlet :-p. After go add one more jacket, blowfish stand on outside the ship and start to snap picture. Nobody help blowfish snap picture so no choice just ask the china guy help to snap picture for blowfish. But the guy strongly disagree to use blowfish camera cox cant get the misty effect thus he use his XLR and help to snap picture for blowfish(damn paiseh troublesome ppl :-p but blowfish is too desprite to snap picture with those beautiful scenery la so don care). The china guy promise to send picture to blowfish via mail. Hopefully he wont forget that :D

P/S: all the uncle tot blowfish is student asking whether she on holiday :-p and call her 丫头, Blowfish proudly announce her age and see all uncle cant believe face :-p(first time blowfish think it good to have round2 face :-p).

Li river cruise(漓江) fees: 330RMB

There are 4 main scenery that we can observe along the river cruise(not sure whether blowfish remember all correctly please forgive her if she give wrong info :-p)
1) mountain that contain rock that look like a lady carry a children waiting for husband(望夫石)

2) mountain where by u can see a lot of horse picture on the rock(some ppl can see 9horse(then congrate u are consider 状元(intelligent ppl)) - my brother say he see 10 horses :-p not sure wat this means :-p

3) mountain where by u can see the horn of goat - in fact actually blowfish and other china uncle think it more look like cat ear or rabbit ear or bear ear (not sure :-p but definely not goat horn :-p)

4)if u have RMB 20 please view the picture of the scenery u can find it along the Li river cruise :D

All this scenery make blowfish feel that if blowfish have a house at the river side and live life like tat should be very wonderful :D

After end river cruise, we heading to yang shuo another town that very famous for the nice scenery. Reach yang shuo by 1PM, tour guide suggest us to go to one of the village to view commorant fishing and also for bamboo riding along the river to enjoy the relaxing enviroment.

However additional 200RMB required, Aiks........ all $$$ but no choice la else later we have no activity whole afternoon.

When reach the village, rain still continue it trend. We cant do any activities there due to the river water flow very fast very dangerous to carry on bamboo ride beside that commorant show also being cancel due to the water too dirty causing commorant cant catch the fish. End up the tour guide give us chance to take picture with the commorant(important tips: don look into commorant eyes when holding the bamboo else the commorant might think u are.....(fish) then what gonna happen u can imagine it....... :-p

Since all the activity being cancel due to the bad weather, the tour guide replace the trip to 世外桃源.

Why this place being call as 世外桃源(heavenly area)??? As this place is quite hidden, we only reach the native area after sail thru a cave. U never imagine that there is something over the cave. But nothing much in this item as blowfish think it too commercialize. Other than the cave sail path nothing really impress blowfish.

When blowfish reach yang shuo hotel, >40% of body is wet. Wet body meet strong wind = Freezing cold. The cloth that blowfish carry also get wet due to the rain :(
grrrrr......... the hotel aircond somor sot2 cant work properly end up whole night blowfish feel cold luckily the hotel give blowfish 2 blanket else guess blowfish will die there :-p

To be continue.........
