Shanghai again!

back from shangahi.. my 2nd trip there this year. this time, mummy's friends were there too.. for about a week and i joined them for all days for shopping, eating, sightseeing etc etc. it was pretty interesting hanging out with the aunties - all 8 of them. one of the aunties bought things like its free - she's almost sure to get at least 1 item from every shop she visits. anyway, here are some of the pictures.

we took a day trip to Hangzhou.. about 1 hour train ride away.I had visited Hangzhou like 10+ yrs ago and all i could recall was taking tat dirty old train. this time, its different, the train's nice, clean and modern and the place's pretty commercialised. Below's a group shot with all mummy's frens.

it was pretty cold tat day (prob about 10degrees) but lots of couples are out in full force taking their wedding pictures - there were more than 5 couples taking pictures ard the west lake. it was freezing cold for me (being dressed in layers of clothings) and yet, the couples were dressed sparingly. the power of love i guesss.hahaha

dad did this lifelike clay model for RMB150 (S$30+ equivalent). The guy's really talented, he was able to mould it from scratch within 15 minutes.

and Shanghai's very own factory outlet!!! reminds me for the premium factory outlet at gotemba japan.
