BeiJing TriP DeBrieF

im back back back ~

*

finally back to this warm and green little red dot.
*
it was super-duper cold in china but it did not snow.

*

overall the trip was great, except for the fact that hubb, dad and me kind-of kenna diarrhoea and hubb had it soo bad that he had to go hospital for consultation and we missed a day of itin after the decision to stay in hotel to rest.

*

and now mum is down with 38.9d fever. lucky we r back in town already.

*

meals were good and we enjoyed for the 1st 2days. but when every meals were more or less the same for the next 6days, i got real sick of it and it was the first time that i'd missed sg food soooo much when im out of town. serious. out of the 4 of us, i think mum was the only one who still has appetite towards the end. our appetite became real bad towards the 3rd day (largely due to the diarrhoea, i supposed), that i can only eat a few pieces of chicken for tt whole meal. same goes for dad and hubb. sooo much food wasted and i felt so bad.

*

we had a great tour guide and the rest of the tour mates were okay too. i'd enjoyed though it was super cold, cuz i know there's no way to experience such weather conditions in sg. but touring in winter time is really troublesome cuz u have to wear alot when u are outdoors but remove again when u are indoors if not, it'll be easy to catch a cold and with the heaters, it's too warm to wear soo much indoors. and walking outdoors during winter time is really cold cold cold... esp when the wind blows... the body and the legs are ok (all thanks to the thermal wear, down jack and wollen pants!). it was the head, face, hands and feets that were cold. must really really gear up. no joke!!

*

also, taking pics and videos are a challenge too. cuz with the gloves on, it's difficult to feel. so when i want to take pics or videos, i'll have to remove the gloves for higher touch sensitivity but by doing so, im freezing my hands. it really wasnt easy.

*

but in summary, though there are many inconveniences when travelling in winter time, i'd enjoy. and ... im starting to miss it already. why must i come back???!!! haiii... and now.. the worst part of travelling ---- unpacking and laundry. urgh!
