Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous

When marimba rhythms start to play, dance with me, make me sway.
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore, hold me close, sway me more.
Like a flower bending in the breeze, bend with me, sway with ease.
When we dance you have a way with me, stay with me, sway with me.
Other dancers may be on the floor Dear, but my eyes will see only you.
Only you have the magic technique When we sway I go weak.
Michael Buble; Sway.

China trip photos from 昆明， 大理，丽江。
The entire trip went like this, we had to fly from 新加坡 to 昆明 (stayed 2 nights) and then take an internal flight from 昆明 to 大理 (stayed for 1 night) and then a coach from 大理 to 丽江 (stayed 3 nights).
The trip back home went like this: Internal flight from 丽江 to 昆明 and then from 昆明 to Bangkok (曼谷） and from 曼谷 back to 新加坡.

It was a scenic trip so, most of the photos are scenic. Postcard perfect!
I did fulfill my new year resolution! Took many many photos, just a selected few to share.

My thoughts on China? Toilets weren't as bad as I thought they will be, there was ONE that was HORRIBLE. Very primitive. I didn't take any photos cause, well, to be honest, I heard it from the others who went down to visit the loo.
China boys can be quite cute. LMAO!
I saw a few cute ones, even my tour guide (for 大理） is quite cute. Not in the handsome cute way, but in the cute-english-speaking way. He's not handsome, he's cute!

The photos are all over, I didn't bother posting them according to days. Truth is, I can't really remember where I went. Lol. They were in Chinese, Chinese names are hard to remember!!

Mahjong!! Lol. The way they play it varies from province to province. They play without 青蕟，白板，红中，animals and 东，南，西，北。 Makes you wonder how they earn money.

Bone Marrow. They gave us a straw (to such the marrow) and gloves to eat it. Interesting!

Hideous amount of oil! I skimmed 1 cup full of oil! Anyway, the oil is suppose to keep the soup warm. There is a tale behind it. This tribal lady had to deliver food to her husband who works far away from home. When food reaches her husband, they always turn cold before he can eat it, so, she discovered that by adding alot of oil, the soup actually keeps warm until it reaches her husband. Sam Sam and one aunty were wondering if the husband got a heart attack from drinking that much oil.
Haagen Daz at 昆明!

They have BreadTalk in昆明!!




Kids sucking on sweets that look like Cigarettes. Local cigarettes only cost SGD$2. Now you know why so many China people smoke.

2 cute girls, they are so shy they just wouldn't lift up their heads!

Purple carrots!!!

Tour guide and bus driver. Very sweet people.


Huge vegetables!!
Toilet without door. Lol. Its relatively clean, like most toilets in China, just that they smell alot.


I thought this was interesting, China car plate! Lol.

Sam Sam and I couldn't wait to come home.
WE LOVE YOU SINGAPORE.
LMAO!
