I woke up around 7.15am after only being awakened by Yan Khee. I quickly washed up, took pictures before leaving the room. I was one of the last few as we were supposed to be down by around 7.30am to gather.
Then checked out of our rooms and took a short trip by bus to have our breakfast which was buns, dumplings, egg and cup milk
We headed to the place where it was piggy from journey to the west hometown. A place which had a garden he owed, a well he took water from, burial ground, statue of piggy’s children, a place whereby music was made etc.
First of all a group photo

Entering
After that, a life time long experience, we had to climb up 700 steps to get to the top.
UP UP and AWAY
It was really grueling. All of us, who wore jackets, removed them on the way up. I stopped, panted, stopped, and panted. I guess my stamina was getting from bad to worse. I struggled my way up but at the end, I did get to the top.
At the top
The view
It was the feeling of a sense of accomplishment. Cool breeze blew and the best spot to look at scenery around us in that area. We rested and took photos there.
As for going down, some of us wanted the method we did when coming up by walking back down all the way but for another group of us, we wanted some fun. We went taking a slide thing down instead. It was really fun but in fact really dangerous as you could flip over anytime if you are out of control. But I had a blast of my time.
Then after meeting up with the rest, we went to go have a look at the place where journey to the west was taken at.

The place
Cameras kept flashing at a cart which piggy carried his wife back in whereby people kept posing with it.
A machine to do something

In there
Then headed for lunch and had it around 12.30pm.The dishes were quite similar to other meals we ate around Wu Dang Shang area.
Then after that it was the journey which you sit till you did not want to sit journey. But it was fun, played games among ourselves, sang songs and had forfeits.
Reached back to our apartments at around 7pm or so. Then as soon as we got back home, we were out again. Alicia, Baohui, Bernice, Xiu Jin, Yan Khee, Eileen, Li Zhen, the CEE guys and I went to Hou caller to eat steak. We headed back after that.
Around 11+, some celebrated Jing Rong birthday with some tricks up their sleeves.
