Day 18 : Oh god, I need a towel or something.

Today was a somewhat event-full day and I’m tired as heck.

Woke up around 8:30AM or so and started to get ready to go out. After getting ready and ready to leave I’m standing there thinking, “What shoes do I want to wear? We’re going to do a lot of walking…should I take out my running shoes? Well I’m not going to wear my black ones since they have no sole, might as well wear the flipflops.” So I got out my new K-Swiss, they’re read and pretty sweet and my purple zebra shirt with jean shorts. It kind of matched but not really. Haha. So from there we walked to our bus stop and waited around and in the window of this store was like...Asian viagara and the pictures on those boxes are so inappropriate! Haha. I’ll have to get a picture up.

We got on the bus and it was an hour bus ride just to get into the area my uncle lived where we had early tea with them. Holy heck it was SOO hot out! I was like… sweating hardcore and getting so hot so fast. It just hit me so hard and I just died inside. While sitting there for early tea, I went through maybe a few kleenxes and was fanning myself off. It was just so hot. From there we went off to another bus stop to get the bus to go to the Tian Tan Buddha. 

It was a long bus ride there and it was really hot once again. We took a gondola lift up and took the bus down. The gondola lift up was nice and nice and breezy. I wanted the Crystal lift but 2/7 of us were afraid of heights and the cost was 3 times more so we took a standard lift. When we took the lift, had to walk maybe…10-15 minutes to get to the stairs. The stairs…oh boy; 268 steps. With the heat and stuff, it wasn’t any easier. We only spent 15 minutes up there or so and I was sweating buckets full. While walking down, my legs were shaky. Haha. Shows how much I exercise right? Caught the bus and the bus ride down was SO bumpy. Holy heck, almost got sick.

From there, we caught the subway and came home. After coming home, it was about 6:30PM and we sat around some more until 7:15PM and we went out for all you can eat sushi. Then came home, showered, and now typing this and ready for bed haha.

Thanks.
