It was a busy weekend for me as my parents and aunty arrived... So it was a full house and that is a challenge when there is only one washroom... But all is well... Just take a number and wait your turn...
We had the wonderful expereince of a Face Changing show... The pictures can be found at http://picasaweb.google.com/joylim101/ChangingFacesShow
Then on Monday, off we went to Suzhou... We went via the first Cass Train carriage from here to there... It was a really comfortable 30 odd minute ride.... There was a special entrance for the first class passengers- Soft Seat passengers... Wonder if the other is Hard seat or No seat???
Suzhou has a lot of gardens... I mean a lot!!!! But one has to pay alot for entrance fees too which is all right as a tourist... We got to ride on a horse drawn carrige, a boat, a trishaw and even managed to find a driver... So guess that covers just about every form of transportation... We had the wonderful experience of being caught in a rain storm too... Thank goodness we had our raincoats...
I managed to get myself some more tea leaves and a silk duvet.... which will be good in winter- I hope it keeps me warm... Oh there is a special silk worm which is a couple cocoon instead of the usual single... Silk is so stretchable and hardy... it is amazing...

All in all, a great weekend plus a short week of work...
One more week to the Golden Week holiday... Can't wait for that... Especially with my sandpaper for a throat at the moment and honking away... Not a good look at all....
Till next time....
