Hi everyone, ok so im back to update my blog! ok where to start!so much to fill you all in with just not had a min to keep updated so this my be a beast so u have been warned ok here goes!
Day 6- still in Hong kong! it rained all day( can you belive it) so we had 2 dramatically change our beach plans!so we went to the science museum! which i was actually very impressed wth lots of interactive things to do, far more impressive than manchester sceince museum to say the least!In the evening we met with kates mate james and when swimming in his appartment and had the fist hot shower since we had been away! o my god it was amazing! i felt so unbelievably chilled out after it!
Day 7- we packed all our things and and heading for teh metro station got off at hum hom and waited for our sleeper train!our bed/seat for 24 hours was the top bunk of a three bunk! if that makes sence basiaclly bunk beds but three! we shared it with 2 randoms!i actually found the journey quite pleasant as i looked out the window and looked at the views and it was the first time we had actually had a min as we had cramed soooo many things in!was nice 2 read my book, listen 2 music and do nothing!!!! yeah not like me hehehe i must have been really tired!the 254 ours went quick!
Day 8 - we arrived in beijinge! thats when the fun began!!!! we arrived and fisrt had no money which was actually the least fr our worries! Absolutely no one spoke english and we had difficultly finding our hostel! which we found out later had changed due to national day! we only found this out because i man off the street who spoke english came to help! after this we got the bus. the bus wel everyone is packed like sardens! and they had no concept of personal space! after getting off the bus we had diffuculty locating our hostel and no one had heard of it either! but eventually we found it!we soon began to realise how different Beijinge is to hong kong!in the evenin we just stayed in out hstel and chatted to a few backpackers and played cards!
Day 9 - was national day - basically celebarting 6 years of china! with all these massive parades! which ent that tianaman sqaure was blocked and all around it! and no one was allowed out, wel we were advised not to go out! there was apparently snypers and i heard one man got arrested for trying 2 get threw the barrier! so there was no way we were going out there! everything in china is rule based and there is specific ways to dop everything! there seemed to be no logic that i could translate into english anyway!! but then on the other side of this everyone spits, doesnt qu and pumps into people!!!! its such an eye opener tho!! oh and the staring!!!! to be continued........ hope everyone is well! keep me posted with what ure up too!ill update the rest soon mhaw x x x x
