Metup with my good friend and “ate” (means sister) Vanessa in Guangzhou, China (pronounced Gwong-jow). Some pics while we are hanging out in the beautiful Beijing Road. As you can see in those old sidewalk-looking pics, there is a section of preserved roads from like 900AD from the “Song Dynasty“, now that is some OLD ass roads there!!!!

These are from the Pearl River Cruise, (We went with Blue Dolphin cruise tours -> their site is here) the pics I promised I’d get, and now I got!!! This place was awesome, so many lights, the river, the cruise, so peaceful and neat. I’ll be back to Guangzhou again soon :) Thanks again Vanessa for the awesome experience, I loved it!

Shanghai, China ( 上海 )

Our first couple days in China, sightseeing and checking out this AWESOME city, I’ll be back here again for sure! It’s big and spread out like USA and the roads arent filled with billions of people like I imagined. Here’s a few pictures while we were walking around the city yesterday and day before:

In Hooters all the girls sang a song for us since it was our first time there in Shanghai Hooters, it was so cute.

And those 3 wisemens names are Fook, Luk, Sow, supposedly I have to place them in that same order to have “good luck” that’s why I took the picture of them hehe, to ensure when I get back to Thailand I can place them on my shelves in the correct order

Some foods we had while there:
Jellyfish heads, SOOOOOOOOOOO delicious
Goose liver, almost made me puke
Eggs fermented in horse urine, gross!!!
These are the wierd things, but most things we ate in China were super delicious, chicken pao, hot pots, fresh foods etc
