Bo bian cos they don’t have my favourite Baileys…

Before we head back home the next day…

An interesting 3rd day as we adjourn to GREAT WALL OF CHINA & Bird Nest Stadium before we took the evening flight to Hong Kong…
I am pretty excited as THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA is one of the New WONDERS of the World and I am so glad to be here.
Check out www.new7wonders.com

Our journey begins here….

oh and we need to pay TOLL too… and they are very well protected…do u get what i meant? keke

After travelling for an hour… we are finally here

yoohoo… delighted

Before we climb the Great Wall of China… Li wanted to try the “Dou Jiang” here…. and one word to describe “YUCKS” horrible taste! Luckily she ordered only 1 bowl instead of 7….

Let’s go now…. @ Ba Da Ling Entrance (Most popular among tourists)

Ticket to paradise

NO Graffiti or ALL Graffiti??

Same pose in 3 different locations…
bo bian cos there is no Photographer among us and i have to “zi pai” and i think my skills not so bad :p

and they really mean it!!!
An old Caucasian lady almost rolled down but my quick reflex saved her life…. I am her life saviour… wahaha

SOS!!!!!

Magnificent view

its me again….

NO NO to cellphone during thunderstorm…

The TOP!!! (or should i say… our finally stop cos we are exhausted)??
3 legs??

Hip hip hooray!!!! Cheers to Great Wall

Enjoy the scenery….

Peek a boo

“Bin Lu” climb Great Wall too

After an hour or more…. we are back to where we started…
A cuppa here…. they served nice “Hot Chocolate”

They decided to play this…. hmmm cant remember the name of this game

and when its my turn…. this “feather” game fall apart…. abish!!!not my fault… dun scold me can… sighz

so i decided to walk around and cam-whore without disturbing them… hahahha (Li says its an excuse i gave… wahahah)

Vivitar @ Great Wall too….

“Ren Shan Ren Hai”

This is the most popular “spot”… but the queue is too long…

Army Men boys

This is not an ordinary cones…. “instill with stereotyping words”

The last pic I took @ Great Wall

Hope to see u soon……. amazing

NEXT>>>>>>> Bird Nest Stadium

Pangu Plaza; Control station for The Olympic 2008. Shape of a dragon, a total of 7 huge buildings connected together…. and now its still vacant cos the Chinese didn’t know what to do with it.

Took this on the bridge…

I kindda like their signage… a tinge of nostalgic cum kiddish….but overall its still look nice to me

Walking towards our destination….

Plenty of domestic tourist… this certainly boost Beijing economy..

when we all step into the grass patch, the tour guide almost fainted…. cos its a taboo to do that… but who cares!!!! we are tourist wor & there is no “Gong An” around… kekeke

The very vain man…. but I am the one instructing him to do that… wahahaha…

tada…. “Niao Chao”

Water cube stadium is just beside “Niao Chao”

We don’t see this in Singapore… right?

No wonder the street is sooooo clean!!!

Overall, Beijing is a clean city probably due to the Olympic… and i am rather impressed with the way they construct their buildings… very creative!!! The experience @ Great Wall was marvellous… its something we do not have here… with this, we end our short 3 days in Beijing and we are flying to Hong Kong tonight….hooray!!! i can see my babe soon

Day 4 @ Macau Macao (this is how they spell it)…. Macao Store walk and City of Dreams, the upcoming biggest casino there.

This is the usual place people will visit… “The Venetian”

My favourite store

The first and only Moet & Chandon cafe @ Four Seasons.

i {heart} these

adjourn to City of Dreams (COD)…. in fact i took a lot of pics but i doubt i can post else they will sue me… keke
this is definitely a nice place for vacation… so pple COD will open in 2009… stay tuned!!! it will definitely be better then “The Venetian”

our tour to COD… but first we need to change to our safety outfit.
I look so “gong”… from my pretty boots to comfy boots…

and there are tonnes of aunties working on-site..
but with the economy crisis, most of them are retrenched! so ke lian

Before Li and gangs fly back to Singapore, we head to “Avenue of Stars”

and enjoy a whopping 25% off discount here….

whoo hoo… so cheap so cheap!!!
bought lots of cosmetics withing 15mins…and after i left, i spot CHANEL!!! sighzz… shld have bought my 255 there wor… nevermind lah save it till the next time

Goodbye my dear frens…. see ya back in Singapore
and my personal vacation starts now…. check out my next entry
Ciao for now
