NATURE'S DAY/FARMER'S DAY
27/12, our Nature's Day or should I say Farmer's Day cos we will be going to strawberry farm and nursery....we went to a "Forget Me Not" nursery........WOW... so many nice flowers, each of us can cut 5 stalks of "Forget Me Not" from the nursery...will take back to Sg to make dry flowers....
We took a short drive to Strawberry farm to pluck strawberries and each of us are given a bucket to fill in....YUMMY...fresh, juicy and delicous strawberries....we were told not to pluck those too ripe cos by the time we bring back to Sg, it may turn to be strawberry jam liao...haha....
After a good "work out" on gardening...heehee...we went for good lunch and after that we went SHOPPING...did I say "SHOPPING"...YIPEE!!!!. Was told by Vivian, our tour guide that, most of the major shopping complexes in Kunming is located at this street. They have Carrefour, a large bookstore, 1 big local shopping complex (can't remember the name liao), electronics shops and many local shops...it's the place where you can find almost everything there....too bad it's winter time, so all the clothing sold are winter clothing...We spend our whole afternoon there...as usual JW will go to bookshop cos that his favourite hangout place...anyway all the books are in Chinese so he didn't stay too long there...most of us went to Carrefour to shop....not bad, certain things are quite cheap and good...heehee...you won't want to know what I bought in Carrefour....it's ladies' things...was told by friends that it's cheap and good there...so I bought a lot lor...
We then walk to a restaurant to meet my boss for dinner...this will be the last dinner in Kunming...at the restaurant we saw two newly-wed couple having their banquet there....poor bride have to wear thick jacket on her gown cos she has to stand out side to welcome her guests....it's freezing cold in the evening and at night...by the time we finished our dinner, they are still standing there...so poor thing...better dun get married in China during winter time...
After dinner, we went back to the hotel where we 1st stayed in Kunming...YEAH... there's Wal-Mart next to this hotel...which means I can shop again...I did quite a lot of last minute shopping at Wal-Mart. I bought a pair of jeans, bought some clothes and toys for my dear son RJ, bought quite a few reusable heat pad and some local products as gift....after shopping JW and I went to KFC for supper before going back to hotel...since I buy so many things liao I have quite a lot of repacking to do...Once all done, Fanny, Yvonne and myself gathered at Yan Yi's room to chat for awhile then back to room cos it's bedtime liao....Goodnite Kunming!!!!
