Day 5
Woke up wif a soar throat.. We cycled to ‘er hai hu’ translation is ‘ ear-shaped lake’. we went to the jetty and we dini like it there cz it was too touristy so we went somewhere else. We cycled along the lake to see if there are any other pplace where we can swim. We went to a village and found 2 twins and they said tat they’ll bring us there. They are so cute.. Mebe around 9 years old.. They shared a bike there.. We cycled through the paddy field on shit covered roads.. Hehe.. The place they brought us?? ITS PERFECT!! Picturesque view n nobody around n cool water.. We swam for a bit, took pics and they asked money from us, I was shocked and disappointed, though we wanted to give them a lil , but they shudn’t hv asked.. I only had 100s.. So I cycled ahead to get change but when I got bk they were gone, so we passed the money to some stranger tat noes them so we wont feel as guilty. Later we cycled to the 3 pagodas but we didn’t go in cause we had to pay a ridiculous entrance fee anyways we can see it from outside d..I took my rash medication cz my rash was comin up..lost a few pairs of undies while hanging them out to dry.we had a short nap and we went to XiJou, I had water dragonflies on the way.. Hehe.. Yumm.. We also went on a muel-drawn cart, but we felt bad for the skinny thing so we stopped halfway n took a bus. The small village still looks ancient and authentic. I had black pepper steak for dinner and it wasn’t all tat good. Our body was achin that night so we decided to go for a massage by the blind n dumb.it was awesome but I had more body aches the next day.. Hehe..

Day 6
There was knocking on our room late at night and so I had to wake up to open it, there was a new roommate.. Then I couldn’t sleep anymore.. The morning we found out tat its an american girl tat was locked outside her room after a late night clubbin… so she had to stay at our place.. I was flooded by my own phlegm n my sis was snoring, I whacked her.. Haha..shhhh…
I had a buffet breakfast and I ate till I dropped. Hehe.. Left for LiJiang in the morning and the 4 hour trip was again BAD…there was so little leg space and seats are so small!! It seems to be much hotter up here.. The first thing backpackers do when they reach a new destination ,seek shelter.. We checked out a lot of guest houses d.. they all range from 120RMB to 140RMB. Then my sis asked some foreign tourists and they told us tat they are stayin at a place for 25RMB per night n the facilities are equally as good.. So we were so excited and started looking for the place.it took us around half an hour wif our heavy backpacks to find it.. But it was ALLLL WORTH IT!!..the place is called Mama Naxi guest house.. Naxi is the name of a tribe there. Mama is such a nice person.. We all call her mama.. Cz she is really like our typical mama.. She is very helpful n tries her best to serve us as best as she can.. All the stress is really bad for her health, we found out tat she is havin some health issue.. Something wrong wif her bone marrow I think. I hope its not fatal.. This place is really comfortable. Prob because she makes everybody right at home. We went to change some american dollars and chilled out at a café (Prague café) where we sat n planned our trip n I updated my diary.. I really like this place, im sitting there and imagining tat it wud be really romantic if I bring my gf here nx time around winter so tat the willows, Chinese rooftops n road is covered in snow n im walkin around holding her hands.. Haih..if I hv a gf… because we plan to go hiking tml, I had to get a pair of hiking shoes cz I din have anything suitable.. I went to almost 10 shops n non had my size until at last I found a shoe wif a larger cutting. I took it.. Hehe.. The quality is really bad but I only need it to last me 2 days..we rushed bk to our mama cz she wants us to be bk on time for dinner.. The cooking is AWESOME!!! I ate damn a lot man..we found out tat there were ppl from Sweden, England, China, Slovakia, Germany, Switzerland, Israel, France, Korea and of course Malaysia( us!!) all under one roof.. Haha.. After dinner, we planned our hiking trip wif mama and I had to do some translating to the others ..at night I went online and chat wif zu n viv.. Zu is mad at me for wtv reason I dunno.. N viv is comforting me.. She is always comforting me.. Hehe.. Thank you!! Muah!!
