My car
With mom's sponsorship, I have my own car. It is red buick HRV from General Motor, but of coz made in China lah. There are other colors like silver, dark blue etc. At first sight, I love the dark blue one, but mom and dad strongly recommended red to me. Since they are the actual owner of the car, I took the advice. Not long after I made the order, dad secretly told me, actually he personally thinks the dark blue one cool. Faint!!! Here above are the photos taken this morning when the sun finally shows its face. Hmmm, should not waste such a good sunny day, am thinking to go out for a drive. Hee hee.

Tour in Zhouzhuang
Accompanied guests from States to tour zhouzhuang, the most famous water town today. They are a couple who are fascinating about chinese culture and an Ang-Mor who likes photoshooting. The couple is american asian, the husband can speak little cantonese and read Louis Cha's fictions. It is really great to meet sb u share the same hobby, what's more he is so knowledgable. Confucius said, "三人行必有我师焉" ie. if three of us are walking together, at least one of the other two is good enough to be my teacher.

When night fell, we boarded on a pleasure boat, embarking on the journey tracing the old grand canal. Dinner was served in the spacious cabin, and performance by a couple of local artists were arranged singing with suzhou dialect. It was wonderful tour. Never thought Suzhou would be so beautiful at night.
