Just a brief description of the trip:
4/12:
From friday to sun, we conducted trainings there. My R&R began after we left the main group on the 4th. I checked into my hotel room for under S$30, QUEEN-SIZED bed for me! Spent the entire day trying to get the air tickets changed to a later time but wasted an entire day with no fruit. What a waste.
5/12:
The next day, we went about to get the Train tickets to Hangzhou and the bus tickets to ZhouZhuang. Then we shopped around Shanghai and site see a bit of everything.
6/12:
Went over to Hangzhou by train. Looked at Westlake, Yue Fei's Shrine, Silk Factory, Cultural Centre and some Temple called LingYing Temple. Reached Shanghai in the evening and had an early night rest to go ZhouZhuang early next day.
7/12:
Wento over to Zhou Zhuang, looked around the place. Left by noon back for Shanghai and then shopped around before proceeding over to Faith's member place for dinner.
8/12:
Shopped at Qi Pu Lu (a wholesale centre- bags for as low as few dollars sing) for the entire day before heading back to meet our members for dinner at some steamboat place. Then we went off to the BUND area to look around and bask in the romantic atmosphere. There were sparks flying but not from me. Haha...
9/12:
Shopping at Qi Pu Lu again till we rushed back to hotel to pack and leave for Singapore. Joined my entourage of 4 gals to airport to meet the other gal. Total 5 gals!
My hotel room for less than S$30 for a night after we left from the main group

The Villian & his wife that caused Yue Fei's death. No longer allowed spitting at them. They are also the origin of you tiao 油条.
