DAY 7 OF YUNNAN!!! (EDIT)
Woke up at 6 which was the earliest timing we had to wake up by cos we had to rush to the aiport to get ready to take a flight back to Kunming. The flight only took an hour whereas by bus, it takes 8+ hours. Said bye to our Shangri-La guide and our driver who was preparing to rush back to Kunming to meet us the next day.
That's the airport!
That's our plane!!
I took this while the plane was flying. I think clouds are real cool!!
That's the plane's engine at the bottom!
Arrived at Kunming and met Yaoli again. Went to a shop selling crystal cos according to Yaoli, only tourist shops have the cleanest toilets. Hahahaha once again, TongTong's mum looked rather interested in getting something for her. hahahhaha omg and Tricia was playing "ice and water" with me. Yeps, the game where the catcher freezes everyone and you have to unfreeze your friend. Sense of deja-vu. Used to play it in primary school. Junxin and TongTong were just standing there watching me get frozen by Tricia. So evil of them. Hahahaha After that we proceeded to have lunch. The restaurant was quite special cos it had small stools and normal chairs that you can choose to sit on. The guide chose small stools for us since we couldn't make up our minds. I wanted the normal chairs though cos once you sit on those small stools, it's near impossible to get up and my legs are rather long which makes it hard to sit.
That's the restaurant
That's how tiny the tables and stools are. They scattered grass everywhere which just made it rather slippery.
After lunch, we headed to Jiuxiang cave where we got to paddle through some gorge and then paddle back. Had to climb up and down steps cut into the rock face and at the end, they had this 300+ steps for you to climb before reaching the top. Some people opted for the sedan service which seemed quite dangerous to me cos the sedan sways a lot.
The entrance to the place.
You have to take a lift all the way down to start which is real cool! The only thing not cool is that when you go down, you have to come up. :)
Blind fishes that live in the caves. Quite cool.
That's a lion!!
That's the super big Lingzhi that a farmer found and donated to the state government.
Waterfall inside the cave.
They have horses which you could ride down. Only for individuals, not for groups. So had to take the cable car down.
Cable cars!! :D Dang fun to look down.
Bird's eye view(no pun intended) XD
So after the cave trip, we retreated back to the hotel for dinner! They had this famous painter painting and they would auction off his art pieces. Janice's mum won a painting for guessing the four words hidden in the painting. hahahaha There was this bamboo casing on the table that contained some kind of beer that has 50% alcohol content. It was taken away though cos everyone thought 50% was way too high. hahahahaha could tell Janice wanted to try that beer. :P In the end she had to make do with the 3.5% one which tasted very diluted. hahahahahha
That's the guy painting!
Yeps, so after dinner we had another party which was the last one for me. Hahahah omg we were real bored after a few pillow fights though i don't think Benj or Janice got bored when it came to attacking each other.. hahahaha XD So we made the worst mistake of the entire trip: TongTong decided to invite tricia over for a short while. BAD move. She came over and started attacking me while the rest fled to the other bed giving me supporting me optically. Omg that little girl is evil. Tried to bite me. Luckily she's small and light. So no damage inflicted. After that we were forced to play hide and seek. hahahahha she saw through the plot for benj to hide in the other room. Finally, the one who suggested the terrible idea or TongTong carried her back to the room. Omg, it's all TongTong's fault!! After she left, peace and quiet returned. But we were getting real bored and ran out of ideas so junxin and TongTong started talking bout jc life, which left Janice, Benj and i out of the conversation. Had no choice but to talk about runescape with Benj. Hahaha Janice was already stoning on the bed. Then we started exchanging school ghost stories. Janice's mum called and we had to go off. Hahahaha though it got a bit quiet sometimes, it was still fun!!! :D
