Discrimination

Well since my pc aint coming back any sooner so I guess I'll blog about the trip with a shitty comp.

First day - Haikou
I woke up about 3.30am on Monday 26th of May. Some crazy time to wake up at. The taxi arrived at 4 am. When I was closing the taxi door I accidentally knock my butt against the door. Ouch much? So then we head off to the airport. Our flight was at 7.15 if I'm not mistaken. It was a 3 hour 20 min flight. I took out my phone to take some pics although it wasnt allowed. How would I know how to kill time there.


The view outside the plane

We reached there in afternoon and had lunch with some relatives that welcomed us. They traveled so far just to see us. Lunch was a lil unusual, I seldom eat this kinda stuff.


Duck Meat


Long Beans


Dont know whats this


Dont know whats this either


Pork!


Chicken


I think this is fish but i was focusing on the hidden mickey part here

Thats pretty much it for the first day.

Second day - Xing Long
We went to the beach. I didn't wanna take off my shoes but I did in the end. It was a big mistake.


This is a delta so there aint any trees


Burying my cousin's legs


Kinda sandy eh?

It was nice and warm whyen you bury your feet in the sand but it started burning so we jumped up and down and ran back to the boat.

Later on we got on the bus and took a ride to Dong Shan Ling. We took the cable car up. It isnt those ordinary cable cars we use to take. but its like this.


Scary!


Look how high we are

On the way down I saw black goats and took a pic with them.


One thing about that place is the best coconut drink I ever had before. God, it tasted so sweet.

Next was the botanical garden. I found some weird ass bug that looked like a leaf at first.



This is cocoa


Vanilla plant


Coffee bean


Coke fruit, main ingredient in our coke.


Weird looking cactus

After all that stuff, we went to try some tea they made.

This might look like ordinary tea but its actually vanilla green tea.


Cocoa Coffee

When we check in at night `at the hotel, normally we get morning calls to wake us up. But I got night calls. A prostitute called my room. Sadly, I couldn't understand what shes saying so I hung up. Rofl

Third day - San Ya
San ya beach , they said its china's hawaii
Its so clean, Port Dickson's a joke compared to this.







Something random

We grab lunch at a seafood restaurant and went to Nan Shan Cultural Tourism Center.


Imagine this statue if its close to you.

For those who cant imagine here's a closer view


This place is Tian Ya , Hai Jiao. Which means end of the sky, end of the sea.


See this metal sculpture?


It takes shape of this rock o.o


Fourth day-Lu hui tou park
I dont really know whats this park is about. I felt so tired so instead of walking up I took this ride.



Hold on tight alright


We reached the top and look how high we are O.O

Lu hui tou park. It has a deer word in it. So that explains why theres a deer statue here.


Next stop - Zhu Ji Chun ( Bamboo Chicken Village )
This village is sorta like my roots. Where my ancestors are from.


The bus couldnt go in, so we had to walk.

After walking about half an hour or more, we finally reached. The villagers welcomed us with lotsa fruits!



This is where I slept


This might look like flowers but its actually the remains of the firecrackers they used to welcome us.


Kitchen


Toilet o.o
its so small that when I stand straight I bang the mirror or something.
And also you can peep at people while their bathing through those holes xD


Without this book I think I wouldnt have survived the village


I didnt have anything to do so I played with a dragonfly


We sat on the truck to go back =X


Villagers waving goodbye


Awhh the two kids I played with chasing the truck

Well the rest of the trip was a bore. So.. yeah. You know I really like how the villagers treated me. They are proud that they have connection overseas. Although I'm not used to the enviroment and lifestyle there. They really helped me fit in and all.
They made my stay enjoyable.
