I am hereby responding to the tag that Elaine posted. So sorry for not posting for so long.
I am back from China after the 1-week holiday. The food was okay, but I had a pretty bad stomachache after drinking tooo much watermelon juice. The hotels were all quite okay, ecxept for the one in Shanghai. The aircon was turned on yet it was still so warm that I could not sleep coz I was sweating so much! We went down to complain to the receptionist 4 times but she completely ignored our complaints. Then my aunt went down and demanded to see the manager on post. The receptionist told us that the manager had gone home. That was ridiculous because all hotels had to have a manager on duty 24/7.
The road traffic and hygiene was horrible. When the 'green man' was on and I was trying to cross the road, the cars and bicycles still continued to drive pass. In the restaurants, even in 'high-class' ones, you could see people spitting (KAARRR-PPUUII!!!). Made me lose my appetite.
By the way, these are some of the 'must-trys' when you visit these places:
Shanghai-大娘水胶
Hangzhou-东坡肉,叫化童鸡a.k.a Beggar's Chicken
Wuxi-nothing much except their pork ribs (chinese-style)
That's all for my trip.
P.S Did you know that China is the 109th most peaceful country out of 121 countries
Norway-most peaceful country- 1st
New Zealand-2nd
Singapore-Not tooo bad, quite okay for a little red dot
Iraq was the last, pretty obvious becoz of the war and everything.
Bye for now! May not post for a loooooong time again.
