my weekend at HK.

As you all might know, Guangzhou was hit with heavy rain and strong wind last Friday. The rain actually starts on Thursday night and last all the way to Saturday morning. Quite a number of places were flooded. The roads to the factory which we are visiting on Friday were flooded too. We are so lucky that the engine of our van did not stall. On our way back to the hotel, we nearly met with an accident. We are traveling on the road when our van hit a pit. The road was flooded and we did not see the pit. Luckily it was just a swallow one, and the driver managed to drive the van out of it. The road condition at that area is really bad, flood and you can see tiles flooding out from the walkpath. Landslides from hills... etc... I really pity the people who lives there.

Weather forecast mentioned that on Saturday, they will be heavy rain also.  Therefore we do not dare to travel to HK. Ended up we went Dong Men again. This time, with lots of purchases. Suppliers then brought us to KTV.

Next day was a sunny day, therefore we decided to make a trip to Hong Kong. Since we only have 1 day, it was a rush trip, just exploring some popular places with limited timing. It was rather easy to travel around HK, with the MTR and the convenience of the octopus card, which you can use it to travel on the MTR or the boat. Din managed to buy anything, except for some clothings from H&M. I must plan for a family trip to HK. kekeke
Some photos to share.
Trip to Disneyland. We did not go in, as we do not have the time. :( going to plan one trip to bring the girls here.

Gosh, when I'm typing this, my hotel (at Dongguan) is experiencing a blackout. Luckily my laptop still have battery, if not, it will be total darkness. Phew... the staff's reaction is quite fast, telling us that it will be OK in a moment, and luckily every room has a torchlight. Lights had recovered by the end of this message. ;)

Sightseeing

Today we went up to the Guangyin Mountain at Zhang Mu Tou.
It's the only tourist attraction  there.
We took a buggy up to 3/4 hill and need to walk up to the submit ourselves. It's kinda scary as we are so high up and the road is quite steep plus strong wind, however, it's a good experience for us. We feel that it's really worth the walk.
Some photos to share. More at A's camera, will upload once I get from her.


The Guangyin.


The locks, I guess it's more for couples.

This is what greeted us when we reached the supplier's factory.

My first Saturday here

Today is my first weekend in China. As we are at Dongguan now, there's basically nothing much to shop or walk around here. Therefore, my colleague and I took a train back to Shenzhen and meet my buddy there. We went to Luo Hu and Dong Men Lu to walk around again. It's was raining the whole day today and it's making us no mood to shop at all. My legs are aching with all the walking. We came back area 6pm and I soak myself at the bath to relax awhile. Maybe will plan to go over to Hong Kong next weekend.

I've just finished a layout just now. Will wait for a good lighting to take a photo of it.

I'm going to sleep already. Am getting sleepy and tired... At last I can sleep early today. For the past few nights, we got back to our hotel so late. Good night all.

My room at Shenzhen


A 5 star hotel. Not bad, but room kinda small...
I'm going to Dongguan tomorrow... Hopefully I will not get bored over there... and hopefully got shopping areas.
I went shopping today after work, met my friend, PM and we took the MRT there. Nice shopping place at DongMeng Lu. A must-go place to visit when you come Shenzhen. Lots of shopping can be done here. I bought 2 pairs of shoes today and a bag. So happy with my purchases.

Am in China now...

Hi all,
I'm in Shenzhen right now, arrived on Tuesday's evening.
Our suppliers came and picked us up at the airport and off we went for dinner. Afterwhich, they send us back to our hotel. We are staying at Four Point by Sheraton.
Today, we went to our supplier's factory. It was slightly more than an hour drive to the factory. Me and my colleague are really not used to such travelling. It's was tiring. Rest of the day was at the factory doing some work and having a heavy lunch sponsored by them again. After work, they brought us to dinner (Korean Food, oh.. I love their KimChi) and took us to do some shopping and foot massage. Gosh... they were so courteous. I guess Taiwanese are always so generous towards their customers.
Din managed to take any photos yet. Hopefully tomorrow I can take out my camera and capture a few shots.
Oh... how much I missed my girls. V cried when I left for the airport. I missed our webcam timing due to the entertainment from the suppliers. Haiz.. hopefully tomorrow I can get back to hotel early and webcam her.
Will update my blog when I've the time... Good night everyone!
