Had outing today. To 长春观 and 红楼
长春观:
长春观位于武昌大东门东北角双峰山南坡,黄鹄(hú)山(蛇山)中部,是我国道教著名十方丛林之一,为历代道教活动场所。称“江南一大福地”。观内崇奉道教全真派,以其创始人重阳祖师门人邱处机道号“长春子”命名
It is a Taoist temple. Some people practise Taoism while some just went there purely for exercise.
We also went to one new building in the 观. There are 2 ladies there carving status/phoenix/Gods on wood. They are so skillful that they can carve a very nice picture out from a plain wood.
Then, we went to the Hong Lou.
Hong Lou also known as the 辛亥革命武昌起义纪念馆.
红楼,即辛亥革命武昌起义纪念馆,位于武汉市武昌区阅马场(武汉市武昌区武珞路1号),因主体建筑为红砖砌墙、红瓦覆顶的红色两层楼房,故又称“红楼”,辛亥革命武昌起义纪念馆是1981年,纪念辛亥革命70周年时,在武昌起义军政府旧址(即清末湖北谘议局的旧址,武昌起义胜利后,革命党人在此建立了中华民国军政府鄂军都督府,即湖北军政府)建立了纪念馆,是国家重点文物保护单位、著名的爱国主义教育基地、国家4A级景点。
It is a building used as a military control centre for the uprising of the Hubei people by Mr Sun Yat-sen 中国国父孙中山
While waiting to get the ticket to the Hong Lou, we saw an uncle flying kite. He was so steady that he just sat down and play. And I strongly believe that the kite is more than 100 meter. Very high up! Just look at the photo :D
After that, me and jianwen went to ktv with the girls. It was my very first time to go to a ktv and sing. I used to sing infront of my computer using winamp and minilyrics only La. Sang for 3 hours. Still haven't high but time flies and we had to go. We went to 豪克来 beef steak house to eat. 9 person, $300++. Each about 30+- only. Quite worth. As we spent over 300rmb, we were given a VIP card.
I took French Wine beef steak, 70% done. First piece was ok but second piece was overcooked and very hard to cut and chew. So, I called the 服务员 and told him about this. He then asked his senior to attend me. I talked to the senior/captain and she said that the all beef are different, blablabla. I Eff-ed back and told her that I ate alot of beef and I can differentiate fully cooked or 70%. After my skillful conversation, she replaced my beef. But my noodle and egg were kana cheated (as they took my plate away, and my egg and noodle still there, and return me another piece of beef steak only).
Cabbed home. 2 cab were with guy and 1 cab were all ladies. Another cab were all girls and the cab driver bullied them, dropped them at the campus entrance only. Came to level1, discussed strategy at level 3. showered and went to level3 to blog.
