writing is a form of THERAPY

Sometimes you can only wish. Wish for things that are never there. Hope for things you will never get.

But sometimes..

Believing will be alot better than wishing.

I wish.. Wish upon the Wishing Tree.

Day 4

Conquered Great Wall today. 不到长城, 非好汉. So today we all became 好汉. But this group of 好汉are also very silly. We were finding that stone which engraved "不到长城,非好汉", wanted to capture a picture as a proof. Climbed quite a bit before we gave up and walked down to the starting point. Then, we saw this white rock sitting there smiling at us. So angry..

Went for a Kungfu musical, 功夫传奇. (Optional tour)

The day ended with Hotspring at Changping. By the time we checked into the hotel, was almost 10.30pm. Tired..

Day 5

Visited School of Confucius and 大钱门 (to understand the geomancy of Beijing). Dumpling banquet for lunch. More than 10 plates of dumplings, ate so much and cant tell the difference.

5 hours ride to Chengde.

Day 6

Super cold in Chengde as it's more north now. Temperature about -10 degree. I wore 5 tops and 3 bottoms, still feeling cold. Of coz, I have my ear muff, hat and double gloves too. Summer Retreat Palace and Little Potala.

5 hours journey back to Beijing. Foot reflexology. Thai dinner without Tom Yam Soup.

Day 7

Dong Ji today. A nice friend reminded me to take tang yuan if possible. Guess what I heard from their radio? "今天是冬至, 大家记得吃饺子." Haha.. so different from ours. Actually, 北京人 already
吃饺子. Think it's more special in Singapore :).

Tianjin today. Traveled 2 hours just to see 2 streets. Trust me, NOTHING great. Tasted 狗不理饱子 for the first time. It's just any ordinary meat bun.

Day 8

Visited Underground City and Snow City. The Snow City was an optional tour for 300 yuan with that Kungfu musical show which we watched on the 4th day.

After which, was shopping all the way. The tour guide had re-arranged our itinerary to squeeze in the optional tour programme. All the shopping was done on the last day. So tiring and hard to buy things when we were not given enough time.

Overall, the tour was acceptable and there was something which I didnt expect ~ that I could walk 6-7 hours daily.
