I have just reached from the airport. Home sweet home. My baby fetched me from the airport and we went to boon lay to have nasi lemak. Gosh how i miss S'pore food. My flight from Beijing was delayed. We finally took off at about 4.30pm this afternoon and touched down S'pore at about 10.35pm. It has been a hectic one week for me.
But gosh, i think i'm so blessed to have gone to see great wall of China. The scenery there was just breathtaking. I went to a whole lot of places which I never knew they existed. Some of the places that I went to are, Tianamen Square, Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Potala Kong, Chengde and Tianjin. There are a lot of other placed but i cant remember or i do not know the name by heart.
Beijing is ok, but i still prefer Shanghai. Shanghai more modernised and its heaven for shoppers.
But the main highlights of the trip has got to be climbing the great wall of china. The steps we had to take was torturous and my heart nearly stopped when i reached the top (Hehe..actually didn't go till the top, was too tired). Next would be the Tianamen square where i got to see my idol resting in peace at his masoleum.
Overall i rate this trip as good.
Food was terrible for me. I had to survive on eggs and vegetables everyday. But i was very lucky to have a tour guide who really took good care of me and understand my needs as a muslim. Speacial thanks oso went out to my dearest friends, Sally, Phillip and Agnes who became my translators while I'm there.
Didn't really buy much, (but actually came back with 2 luggages, went with 1) but my money were all finished up.
Ok, lah i think that's all I'll write for today. Will elaborate more on my Beijing trip experience once I have the time but i wonder if anybody will ever read this blog of ours. Jet lag for now. Till next time....-ShahFendi-
