remembering this day last year (2008)…

… i was in Beijing. Ah, the cold weather; the strong breeze; my uncle’s mansion; his very playful dogs: Harry and Potter, still remember me screaming when i saw Harry running towards me when i first arrived at his house… hmmm… i am still trying to figure out the date i flew there… Time flies… Beijing is really not bad afterall… oh yea, and… HAHAHA, i am still not done blogging about my Beijing trip until today, been lazy and procrastinating. :P

Where did i stop? i think neither of us remember… hahaha, i think it’s Day 2.

So, Day 3: (will keep it short and simple, after all, this is not something new, am just writing for records sake :P )

Dont remember much already lah, but photos will refresh my memory…

Went to YONG HE fast food chain for breakfast.

"Garden" *the background looks so fake, like i was cropped into the photo.

This is The Garden… yea, if i remember correctly, this huge place was the emperor’s garden… How lavish huh? and of course, in this garden there are also 殿 ”halls”…

The entrance to the temples

Come to think of it, their ancient buildings are all more or less the same. The edges of the roofs must have those thingies – little tiny creatures (sorry, didnt take any close up photos of their roofs) those are to guards to shoo demons away. And their doors had… erm, dont know how to describe (no photo either), if you’ve watched chinese dramas you would have noticed that they have to cross the barrier that’s at the bottom of the door, those “bariers” is to prevent ghosts from entering their premises.

My sister speaking to the wall

I was listening hard... to the wall

 Hahaha, like lunatics, one is speaking to wall, the other is trying to hear the words from the wall… this 殿 is the garden as well, and this wall has the ability to pantul balik to sound.

Near the exit of the garden you will find alot of senior citizens…

Not joking, their old people senior citizens are very active… so health-conscious! Might be old in age but definitely not physically… fuiyoh~
