Day 3

Almost the same as day 2, have our breakfast at the same spot, went to the training place at the same time, went to the same place for lunch with almost the same dishes, but some of the new dishes we tried, pre-ordered by our co-ordinator were nice.

After the training we went to Xijiahui Road, further than Nanjing Road, to look for computer accessoties, and stuffs. Amazingly I didnt manage to buy a thing...... It was a nice place, not as crowded as Nanjing Road. We went there using the subway, Line 1, same fare 4 yuan. We manage to find a department store, but the prices there is the same as goods sold in Brunei if not a bit cheaper..... Really not much different from day two.

Day 4

The day started low for me. As I was sleepy as soon as I woke up. We had our breakfast, than in the bus on the way to the training centre, I slept. Unfortunately today, our bus driver, a new one is careless, driving dangerously. I was awaken by him, when the bus he drove knocked by someone from outside, the road was jammed since the driver used a different route. Something happened when the driver, I dont know may be tried to chnge lane and a bus behind nearly knocked our bus. I dont understand what they say but the other person may be a driver or a passenger knocked our bus chasis. We stopped there may be almost an hour, waiting for them to sort out the problem.

We arrived at the training centre around 10 may be, started our class late. Then we went to the same restaurant for our lunch. The dishes is nice but not as nice as the day before...... We ate anyway, luckily the lamb kebab were still there.....

After the training we went shopping again, around the people's circus, and I managed to buy few things, went to Starbucks Coffe to buy drink then back straight to our hotel room, freshened up a bit and face my laptop. Until now after my bath... before my beauty sleep, am sitting infront of my laptop.... i wonder if I can be seperated from it hehehehhe.

Anyway it's late and I have to snooze......

Day 5 & 6

Same thing, nothing new...... same time waking up, same breakfast, same training different chapter, but after that same shopping time but different places.... Same tiredness.... same late sleep..... So nothing much to say reaaly....

I can only ask.... if one wants to see the photos can alway go here.... hehehhehe too tired to think and also to write...........

Day 1

Arrived around 1630hrs on Sunday, arrived @ the Jinrong International Airport around 1800Hrs,that is after clearing customs and immigration @ shanghai Pudong International Airport.

After a brief rest in room 812, all of us went around doing our first day shopping. I managed to buy a wireless router for our now known cyber cafe 812, which open daily soon after we woke up and back from supposedly our shopping.

So far Shanghai is very kind to us, there is a halal restaurant just in front of our hotel, and the shopping complex is not that far, just that the price is a bit expensive I think. Anyhow some of us managed to buy few thing on our first shopping trip.

I can give only give the url for pictures I took, reason is that, have to use proxy, all the options not available:

Day 2

I couldnt have enough sleep. Well we slept late last night, and I woke up every 1 hour, may be due to unfamiliar with the environment, at least that is the only reason that I can think of.

Woke up @ 6 am, brush my teeth, wash my face and straight to my laptop, trying to find ways to access my blog and my friends' facebook. Since we found out that those and many more sites are blocked due to Chinese political reason. So as of this I cant post any picture other than the one that I have uploaded to the photobucket, thus explaining why I can ask you to click here like before.

Anyhow the Alcatel University is about 1 hour trip by bus from thne Hotel. It was a difficult 1 hour to re-adjust back to studying mode, but after that it webt well. Since our instructor is a chinese, he use simple english which can be understood easily.

The hard part was around 11 am, when my stomach really need to be fill up..... So hungry meehhhh..... Luckily the university took us to the halal food restaurant somewhere that I still dont know where, but the food was really nice, the kebabs, salads, chicken, bread, as for me who has this small stomach... I really enjoy the food, eat alot. I wish I could talk more about that.

But the best ending of day 2 was taht we went to Nanjing road, went there using the subway, line 1 cost us 4 yuan which is less than BND$1.... It was a busy street, lots of people of so many races, well majority ofcourse chinese... but true that lots of people there, I managed to shoot some videos but unfortunately hard for me to post it due to political reason meeehhhh.......

I managed to buy few things which really didnt satisfy me, yet I dont regret buying them..... It was a long walk, tiring, back aching (due to age factor) yet it was fun......

That wasnt the everything about our Nanjing road experience but it is very late now and I need to got to sleep....

I hope day 3 is much better, can wait to go to the same restaurant where we went for lunch... as promosed by our course coordinator.......

For the 2nd day:
