Day Twenty Six

This morning, we went to opposite street to have our breakfast. After breakfast, we went to the petrol station and asked whether the van is available to send us to the Yellow Crane Tower. At first, the uncle told us that he charge 80 Yuan. So, we negotiated with him, and managed to go down to 70 Yuan, at least.

The journey took us around thirty to forty minutes. We took off the van, and walked up to the Yellow crane tower. So, at the reception, we saw that adult fees are fifty Yuan, and Students are twenty five Yuan. However, when I produce my student card to the receptionist, she told me that I must have the certificate here, only I can be granted with student price. Out of no choice, I have to add another twenty five Yuan for the ticket. Sigh.

In Yellow Crane Tower, we walked around and took some photos. We even went to a shop that has costumes for rental. So, every one of us got our self a costume. Jin Rong as emperor, Hansoo and Rui as warrior, HuiXin and Lynette as princess, and I as a scholar. So, we went around the Yue Fei’s statue and took some photos.

After returning the costumes, we went up to the tower. Finally, we came to this place. This trip to Wu Han will be without regret. This place is wonderful, the atmosphere, the scene, and the decorations of the building. Perfectly crafted, and designed.

After visiting yellow crane tower, we decided to go Si Men Kou. A food street that we went last week. We decided to ask people on how to go to the street. Coincidently, we met some kind Chinese people, and they are on the way walking there too. They invited us to walk with them, and we were so happy with it. When we reach the place, they kindly advised us that we have to take care of our belongings as there are many pickpockets around. We were impressed, on how friendly they are.

After split our way with them, we went for food hunting. We ate many delicious food there, and the one I love most is the Xiu Mai. It’s been so long I never ate it, and the taste is very good.
Today, we walked very long. From the moment we went off from the van, at 11 o’clock, we walked until around 5 o’clock. It’s been so exhausting.

Finally, everyone decided to go home. This is the best news that I was waiting for after walking for so long. We faster stop two taxis and go back to our hostels to have a good rest. Yawn.
