Guilin, China

Xmas in GUILIN.


I went to China again people. Funny how i end up getting dragged there every year but of course i do enjoy my trips there :] Most probably cause i always have some form of entertainment around me and people like my cuzins XD

Specimen one -Yeahboyysanta-

Specimen two -ton ton-

Woke up at like 3 to go to the airport, guess everyone was abit off that very early morning XD started our usual crazyness and surprisingly we had no brinjal. Flew off around 6ish and barely slept on the plane cuz my lil bro snores like :O

Mountain-ish and partially cloudy. Reminds me how much i love living in Malaysia (minus the gov XD) Guilin is literally located in a circle of mountains seriously. Its like right smack in the middle of hills and mountains, nice view even though almost everything was either dying or dead cuz of the weather.

It turned greener :D


Its funny how mountains and hills can affect people living in guilin :P This mountain/hill apparently looks like a elephant to people there, thus, they name a recreational park elephant park and make it into a tourist attraction spot. amazing. XD They had it all, the elephant inspired wall, elephant statues and the rest.

Being the bored and lifeless people we are...
It's just him.

Well next we went to another park or something like tht. It was inspired by a general whose arrow apparently went through three mountains XD Great.
Saw some cabbage flowers, quite pretty, maybe even edible :P

We went through caves and stuff to get to a gong and limestones ? THE AMAZING LIMESTONE. It is u know. A place with nice lighting too! Camwhore reappears! Then theres those people dipping in the ice cold water XD It looked like they were skinny dipping :P

This other park is quite interesting, its half european and chinese.
Then we got trapped in some room when they tried to sell us stuff :O




Well after tht, we went for a boat ride to watch people and ducks fish :P Its quite sad for the duckies, the owners make them go fishing for fish, then they steal the fish that the ducks catch. Pfft. It was pretty dark on the boat and quite plausible to just tumble off, then poof! Fireworks :]


We went back to our hotel which was like okay. Freaking people smoke in the lifts tho. China people are so rough man! its like they do not care about anyone else. They literally smash u into the lifts and try to fit in even though its obvious they wont fit in. Serious assholes. XD

The next day, we visited a very old tree, it has walking sticks for support too :D


Then theres the remaining of a wall or house. Whatever it is, its old too XD

It was raining! and we went on a boat. The water was so green-blue, beautiful!
We went to this origin village, they seriously look like Malays!


It was like a place that shows the life of these people. Theres a magical marryme ball XD Throw it and the guy who catches it will marry u. Quite funny too , stepping on someone's foot means u like them XD


After that we took a freaking long bus ride to Lipu. Its even nicer there :D There were shows.

A wedding ceremony that conned the men of 50 yuan each. Its like RM 25.


The next morning was warm XD And an awesome view outside our hotel was discovered! Im amazed i didnt notice that till we had to check out XD. Oh wells.

We went to this place which is kind of a blur to me. Its like a place to do the rice thing and then another boat ride XD Amazing how no one fell into the ice cold water :P

Well, we played on a giant see-saw :D Fun-ness!
Aren't they adorable! They're pink! :D

This next place is freaking cool ! Its like a cave with limestone but in the nice way. Its seriously cool. My camera couldn't really take a nice pic in the light but i guess this pic should be okay.

The reflection for this one isn't that great but in real, its as tho the ceiling is the ground.

A lot of time was wasted travelling.. How dull. It resulted in very random things.. XD
We created videos! Its really random but quite fun :P

Well after that we went to a bridge to take pictures! This was quite random too. Eugene the monkey has yet to exist :P

"Pinch da hill"

Boat ride again.. And rock skipping! Its quite unfair, my dad is a freaking pro at it, yet every stone is throw just goes "plop!" or "splush!"


The show. It was nice and all but i fell asleep anyways XD i sound horrible! But its not really my fault, at first it was pretty cool, the whole scenery was the stage like a 180 degree view of the mountains over a river. The fact the singing was so long and the people moved extremely slow over the water made me sleepy. Besides, its outdoors and cold :P

Well, seeing this woke me up laughing my head off
Focus on the tall person scary in glasses with a orange flowery hat. How contradicting.

Another show.. didn't understand it at all XD Thus, fell asleep again :P But after the show we went around doing some random stuff. Freaking con people ! 10 yuan for a picture with one person. Then this crazy bunny came up right behind me trying to take a picture with me :O
Fag! Made me jump and scream! It chased after my cuzin and sis for money cuz she took a picture with it O__O Its not funny. Try imagining a freaking fake bucks bunny chasing after u for cash. It totally tricked them! it didn't even say anything about payment.

Damn bunny.


After getting out of that place with corn :D we went to a jade or stone place. The magical rocks! XD but there are also cute stuff there, clay

Cows are cool.


-End of part One-

Shall post the rest of my trip later :P
