Day 4 in Shanghai

Hello!! Today's the 4th day of the trip already! heh, time really flies when you have nothing to worry about other than having to wake up on time.
 
we went to the pearl farm in the morning and they show us how is pearl extracted.
 
and even though my mum is really money-conscience at all times, she just couldn't help but be psycho by the sales person about the wonders of pearl powder, which she said I could use it. 
 
Initially, my mum wanted to get the masks, which is a crazy $10 per piece and well, i got to admit it was really awesome, but $10 is pretty hectic, and we didn't get that in the end, because $10 is like... heh.

we got the pearl powder though, which is like $30 per tin (i forgotten the price auctally) and it works out to be about 6 or 60 cents per gram. And we are using it carefully right now, not for consumption yet, we used it for facial purpose. and we are expecting it to last us for 5 years, that's when the powder expires.

after the pearl farm, we head off to Wuzheng's town (well, i don't exactly know what it is, so, yeah :/) where i like it pretty much. there are still families living there, and I thought there wasn't. tsk, imagine living there during the holidays, and having to endure all the noise and the lack of privacy. :/

after the trip, we went to have lunch at somewhere which, well, i have no impression of oops. 
 
anyway, after lunch, we took bus for 3 or 5 hours to Hangzhou. argh, I was really in love with Hangzhou because they had almost everything I wanted.
 
they had access to the free bike which could be found easily at those bike stops. And I had such thing for bikes you know. So when i heard of that, i actually visualize myself cycling around Hangzhou, going everywhere on the bike, stopping as and when I like to relax. 
 
We stopped at XiHu for sunset, which was awesomely breathtaking, and the crowds there were having their leisure breaks and were strolling around, no wonder Hangzhou was voted as the most relaxing city. I mean, compared to the other cities so far, Hangzhou was indeed the most relaxing city so far.

then it was getting darker and darker, which means I cant take portraits photos anymore because it's too dark should I increase my shutter speed, which well, is a must in night time.

after a short walk, we went for dinner at the restaurant nearby, which is really crazy filled with people, and then to the New World to watch performance which is better than what I expected! :)
 
lastly, we went back to the hotel, which is small, but innovative, and it was at this hotel which make my sis, my mum and I crazy over this period drama  宫锁心玉, he he cheesy i know, but we just like it!
