Today was a long day for all of us, got off bed at 6.15am just so that we could be ready for the excursion trip at 7.15am. The schedule that was plan for us was to go to 4 popular areas in Wuhan and they are respectively Dong Hu (East lake), HuBei Province Museum, Huang He Low( Yellow Crane Tower) and lastly Bu Xing Jie.
Our journey in the bus
Our first destination was East Lake, it was pretty cooling over there as it was in the morning when we visited it. Over there we were able to take some beautiful scenery picture of the lake as well as a bridge which linked us to the other side of the river and there were even boat for us to ride in so that we could be able to have a feel of riding on the East Lake.

Time for group photos ^^
Our Second destination was HuBei Province Museum. It only a 2 to 3 mins ride from East Lake to the Museum. Over there in the Museum we got to learn a lot about the life of the ancient people, about their tombs and what is being placed inside the tomb. However there was one thing which left quite a deep impression in me, and that is the jade animals which are being stuff into the deads body.

Before moving on to our third destination, we went to have out lunch at a restaurant. The food which was served to us was in big portions and it came in many different varieties. Most importantly there are veg for us!(ps: we are deprived of veg for almost a week)
Our LUNCH.. looks delicious right? ^^
Our Third destination was Yellow Crane tower. Our aim was to climb to the highest storey of the tower, the tower was about 9 storeys high and so we took our time and climbed to the third level where we took some pictures of the different models of tower. After so we went ahead and climbed all the way to the top of the tower where we are able to see the whole view of the Wuhan.

FUN SHOTS (:
And FINALLY we went to our last destination which was Bu Xing Jie, that was the place that we went yesterday for our shopping trip. However some of the girls didn’t want to do anymore shopping and so we decided to head to the their fast food restaurant, Dico’s which is somewhat similar to our KFC in Sinagpore.
And it was around 5.30pm when we return to our hostel to have our break. Anyway, Zhen Zhao thanks for getting the dinner for us, it is highly appreciated (:
It was the time that we spend together that bond us
Reflection:
When I was at Yellow Crane Tower, I came across a young girl whose age was around 8 and was asked to beg by an adult. I kind of figured it out that she didn’t really want to do it as it was all shown from her facial expression, and that was when I felt really sad for her. This was my first time witnessing such situation with my own eyes. But thinking about it, I might have helped this girl today, but will I be able to help her again tomorrow?
