and im gg to use same excuse again...its been 1 week since i last blogged.. and y leh.. hahah.. cuz i went to 西安 and 南京(again) during china's national holiday(oso known as the golden week aka 黄金周). well unlike sg's miserable 1 day holiday(which coincedentally fell on a weekend this yr--right?) china's more patriotic (i think?) and gives a 1 week holiday to all so tt they could jus rest and relax on tt 1 week of holiday.. which means for most ppl its "mass migration".. oh yea.. the chinese do travel within their own country to other states to tour and have fun.... china's tt big u know.. hahaha..

anw..back to nanjing day 3!! since day 3 celest and i visited 2 v beautiful places... i decided to split them up into 2 diff parts.. so tt well the post wont be tt long, 2ndly i can put up more pics in tt 1 place.. cuz those 2 places are beautiful(and big..really big...)

so in the morning, checked out our travel map's recommendation and their v tiny pics on various tourist attractions tt will nt be included in the gip class field trip(ah yes..gip class field trip will be in nanjing).. and so we saw 2 pretty nice and (insert whatever explict or any other phrases tt u say when u exclaim out loud when u are stunnded) huge places, 玄武湖 and 雨花台 . so we decided to check them out... 1st stop---玄武湖!!

well this time mapbar didnt really bluff us.. tt webby did give us the correct bus to take.. though the getting down pt was abit off... well but anw... after trying our luck on getting down later at a bus stop called 玄武湖smth instead of 鸡鸣寺(mapbar asked us to get down at 鸡鸣寺) , celest and i got down, walked abit..and reached.. 玄武湖..
