Day 26&27 Mount Wudang.

Went to Wudang mountain.
Left our school at 7am and reached about 12pm.
Had our lunch there, and we fnally start to see toilets without door
and its only waist tall. It's definately a fun experience.
The first day we reached there we only tour around the base of the mountain
the official climb is the next day!!!




































Saw a friend from another group of ngee ann students that came to China.
But they are staying at the other campus.
The new campus that i visited the other time.
Heard that the whole group only have like 6 chinese, it must be really difficult
for them to go around and even eat. hahah.
Oh and she told me that their place is like at the outskirt, once they ordered Mc's delivery
and waited for 2 hours , the person called back and said they went to the wrong campus and
their campus is at the outskirt so cannot deliver. But the truth is there is a mcDonald
thiry mins down the street. Glad that our place isnt like this.

















It is definately cold up here but we had a craving for Ice cream. hahah


















A well. A well!!!! Never seen one before, and it is so DEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

I've been wondering , who is the one that translate the words to english.
And did he use dictionary or even the internet?










The super awesome hotel , so far i had seen in China.
There's toilet bowl, it's even clean, and there's computer!
But sad that it's not my room and we only stayed there for one night.













On the way.. to the top












Helpful mde students save the day of the poor old man!

The poor old man:(













We finally reach the top but theres still more to go!
Its cold up here, it even rained, that makes it even colder.








































The lock work like this.
Write down your surname and Jia(household)
then place it here at the Wudang mountain, the higher the better.
So their God will come down and bless your family.









We climbed the mountain to see the Golden summit.
It is said to be when a certain time of the day, when the sun shines and the
bronze temple/building on top of the mountain will reflect the light and
be seen as Golden. But unfortunately we didnt see it.






The Wudang mountain climb was tiring, but it was worth it, the magnificient view,
and all our efforts we put to reach the top, and the never give up spirit.
The steps are steep and its 4.2km long journey.
And even for Faith who has a back pain ,she still manage to climb up all the way!!
We even see some really old people that some climb up all the way
to deliver food, to earn a living. Some because of their believe they would even want to
climb up all the way to pray to their God.
And we youngster had to complain about the climb, compared to them we are really fortunate.
The uncle need to deliver 100kg worth of stuff.
And the auntie also brought quite alot of joss stick and a bag that weighs more than 5 kg .
Oh and the sedan carrier ,their back were hunching, because to earn a living.
They had to harm their body, its really a heart breaking sight.
I hope that i can learn from them, knowing out there, people are struggling worst than i am.
Nothing that i face can be as bad as their, so stop complaining and do my best.
