Day 38 - April 10

Didn't wanted to go out today as i slept very late the night before and Jit Siong went to watch sunrise with my DSLR, i only knew about it when i saw him taking the SD card and cutting every picture into his computer with my half open eyes.

Didn't went out with the rest to shop as i was having mood swings, It's getting real bad. In China the service is good because they know that we are going to come again. Unlike in Singapore where tons of people spoils the market by going on fitting room and trying on every single piece of clothes to take photo with clothes that they are not buying. Those road side stalls owners here recognise us as we normally goes out in a big group and speaks differently from the rest. Getting special treatment is not unusual as the peoples here treats us differently from the locals be it we are more polite or we are easier to con. Politeness is absent here, as i have seen customers scolding or just poking those sales persons, unlike in Singapore where they would say thank you or sort of acknowledge their present.

Went to KFC for dinner for the third time in this trip, it's down counting 4 days. They couldn't serve us ice as the water supply in the restaurant is having problems, we had dinner in the dark during our second visit to KFC as there is a electricity cut and now a water cut. Public utilities here in China is as reliable as in Singapore. Seldom in Singapore does we see families storing up candles in case of electricity cuts, here in China is common to see families eating under the candles.

Went for the Village side food as it's tastier and cheaper than canteen food. Although the hygiene isn't there but i believe that i'm fit enough.
