Day 2

Whoo.. the rain has finally stopped… and the scenery is really great as we could finally admire the place without the rain…lessons were pushed back for more self-exploration time =D (yay!)

feels like we're in Harvard Uni or sth...

the rubbish filled streets

a monument

btw, there are a number of strays roaming around the place

Today, we had our very first GEMS lesson in Dalian, which is a series of talks that introduce to us about the history and the culture of Dalian and China. Even though the talk was conducted in English, we had much difficulty understanding them due to the difference in the English accent.

nice view of the place from the gems block...

We got to know about the different attractions of Dalian and that made us all really excited and are all having thoughts of exploring Dalian. As we were lucky enough to have a pantry of our own, we tried to make ourselves at home with our all familiar food-Maggie mee…. Hahs.. its only been a day and we’re already missing Singapore food… hahs… The food here so far has been pretty acceptable I guess, just that its more oily and salty and they do not have as much varieties as we do in Singapore.. sigh feel lucky to be in Singpore…

potential chefs in China...
