I left Manila at 12noon on Monday. And two hours
later I was in Hong Kong. But I did not spend too
much time there. By 4pm I was already in a bus bound
for Foshan. The trip had a few issues... like the
busy breaking down and me being stuck in the
immigration check point, much to the dismay of the
other passengers who were in a hurry to get home for
Chinese New Year. But I did make it in Foshan. It
was already 10pm and it was freezing cold. Then I
realized that the rooms in the hotel where I'm
staying does not have centralized heating. So I just
snuggled up and thought about those hot, humid days
in Manila. Hehehe! Ahhh... coolness! :) |

I got up at 8am and I went downstairs because I was
starving. In the breakfast buffet were sauteed
potatoes, spaghetti, boiled egg, chicken congee,
tomatoes... and pig's blood. YUM!!! :) Then I went
out for a walk. I think it was only 9°c and it was
rush hour. But if you can cross the streets in
Manila then Foshan shouldn't be a problem. :)
...although I did have trouble reading the street
signs. I'm sure I'll figure them out eventually. :) |

Then I went to the building where I'd be working.
Part of it is still under construction and the
kitchen is nowhere near completion. But it looks
good. :) |

In the evening after dinner I went out for a stroll.
A few hours earlier it was a mad rush as people
tried to get their last minute shopping done. But by
9pm the streets and sidewalks were almost empty.
Everyone's gone home to their loved ones for Chinese
New Year. How I wish I could be home with Miss SY. |

Foshan is a beautiful city. There are lots of places
to see, and the food is great! It's very
picturesque... but from the moment I get up, 'til I
fall asleep at night there's only one picture in my
mind. :) |
