vacation!, day 30 / August 7th, 2011

We had breakfast in the hotel lobby ( Sunny Huansha Hotel in HangZhou ) in the morning, which was halfway good. Then we wanted to go to the Liuhe Pagoda ( Pagoda of Six Harmonies // Six Harmonies reminds me on Mukuro LMAO // And Mukuro reminds me on Raffles City where I saw him IN PERSON 8DDDD -shot- okay it was a cosplay nevertheless I saw Mukuro LOL // AND Cosplay Mukuro reminded me on Roxxy ;A; IMISSYOUSOMUCH <3 )
Ok we went to the Pagoda and my mother wasn’t sure herself because she went there before but that was 20 years ago and 20 years ago you weren’t allowed to go into the Pagoda (because it’s something about the Chinese bible or something in that way LOL). Anyway we were allowed to enter the Pagoda and GOD THE STAIRS ARE HELL D8. The pagoda was built of wood. And after all the years and generations someone restore the pagoda. I think it was burnt down too and then rebuilt or only the wooden case was burnt and the stone was kept or other. I dunno anymore. ANYWAY some of the stairs are wooden and some of them were made out of stone … AND GOD THE STAIRS WERE ABOUT 20 CM HIGH D8. AND THE PAGODA HAD 13 floors … actually only 7 floors but in the pagoda are hidden floors too LOOL don’t ask me why but there are XD

Oh I almost forgot to say that we went to the Nine Creeks too. The Nine Creeks is something like a BIG BIG GARDEN … just it isn’t a garden LOL it’s somehow a field full of tea-bushes and also somehow a walkway LOL and on the middle of the way there is a somehow big waterfall :3 If you go the small walkway up there is a small pavilion where former the ladies in the dynasties had a rest.
The walkway up to the pavilion was HELL too just like the Pagoda of Six Harmonies but the good thing was that there was a waterfall and the water was EXTREMELY REFRESHING ;A; AND COLD <3
- - - - - - - -
Before we went to the Pavilion I saw something cute and frightening LOL. KIDS … 6 years old or even younger … they played with such water guns and after they finished playing they wanted to sell them OMG … first they said 10 RMB for one and then 15 RMB for 3 and then 8 RMB for 2 and then 25 RMB for one … god XD they didn’t even know what they said but they were able to DEAL GOD. (I filmed them and I will upload it on YT but private LOL) CHINESE KIDS ARE OMG FRIGHTENING … they even appear in those entertainment-shows on TV D8. 5 years old or even younger kids appear on TV and sing or dance.
NBCIWEAIPB ÜOQJOBQKAA O___o
And they can kid the adults too o-o HORRIFIC!
- - - - - - - -
ANYWAY , after the Pagoda of six Harmonies we took the Bus to the SuDiChunXiao ( which means Spring Dawn at Su Causeway) the causeway is 2.8km LONG D8< I think we only walked 25% of it and after the 25% we took the Tourist Cart to the end I think LOL. We got off the cart and went to the probably best well known restaurant in China -LouWaiLou- ( even the premier ate there and other important state-visitors :O ). There we had something REALLY DELICIOUS ;A; <3 OMG I WILL NEVER FORGET THE MEAL. We had Beggar’s Chicken. It’s a FAT & TENDER Yue chicken LOL. The chicken and its ingredients are wrapped up with a fresh lotus leave and other special materials and then baked with a slow fire. The meat is t4ender, white and crisp and the bones fall off easily. GOD IT WAS SUPERUBER DELICIOUS <3<3<3<3 I wish you would have been there!
After the great late lunch and early dinner -shot- we had a boat-tour around the outer West Lake (the West Lake is divided into the inner and outer West Lake because of the Su Causeway)
The “captian” was so nice and took some photos for us too 8D well I think 160 RMB is a little bit exorbitant but it was nice nevertheless LOL. At evening we then went to the Imperial Street of Southern Dynasty a.k.a. Zhongshan Road rofl. It is like the Nanjing Road in Shanghai. :3
After the trip we went back to the hotel.

I slept till 10 am because I was too exhaust from the other day and well my mother, as always, woke up early again and went to the bank LOL she spent like 2 hours there and wanted to change Euros into RMB Yuan but the man before her was so slow and complained about all the things and so on and well I think the Exchange Course changed a lot in these 2 hours and my mother lost I think 300 RMB LOL. WE ARE SO UNLUCKY D8. My mum also didn’t calculate it right for our stay in HangZhou but it couldn’t be helped. HangZhou has TOO many sights to see for only 2 days and well tbh I don’t belive that we ccould explore everything in even 1 month so yeah xD. We checked out of the Hotel and went to the Railway Station for the CRH Trains. There we took the earliest one to Shanghai. In Shanghai we then took the Metro for the last time ;A; To People’s Square, Exit 15, Raffles City - In the Office Tower we then spent like 2 hours for the invoice at Schenker because my mother is using their sea transfer for her things :3. After the payment and management things for the sea-transfer we then went window shopping in Raffles City again. AND I WANT TO BUY SOMETHING FROM CALVIN KLEIN ;___________; <3 I try to buy something in Beijing because stupid Austria don’t have a cK - Store D<
At night we went back to KunShan again.

Anyway we took the CRH train to Shanghai and in Shanghai, drum-roll please 8D , I sent POSTCARDS LOL. On the very last day XD to my friends in Germany/UK and Austria 8D -shot-
After it we then hurried to take the following Train (unfortunately not a CRH one D: ) back to Handan.
The train was a sleeping train and we spent like 16 hours in it e___e YOU CANT IMAGINE THE HARDNESS OF THE BEDS OMG MY BACK ;A;
In the morning 4 AM !!!!! we arrived in Handan and from there we took a cab to my aunt’s place

*I WANT SOMETHING FROM CALVIN KLEIN OMFG .__________.
*I will miss Shanghai -sobs-
*The ppl in HangZhou are MUCH NICER than the rest of china, seriously
If you want to ask for directions the ppl in Shanghai won’t even look at you, but in Hangzhou you don’t even have to ask someone directly LOL I was only with my mum talking about how to get to the pagoda and a woman behind us heard us and gave a splendid explanation on how to get there -shot- It was kinda scary but still nice :3
