Guangzhou.

Ups, this is supposed to be before Hong Kong, but I forgot to tell about it.. 

We didn't have hard seats to Guangzhou as we expected, we had lovely soft beds!! And the trip didn't last all day and night, it was only 8 hours or so, so we arrived around 1500, and were not ready to leave the train at all! The doors actually closed before I got out, but a not so nice train-lady helped me, while yelling at me that I was to late, I guess, it was chinese..

We spend 4 days in Guangzhou, it is really not much to see or do, and it was quite expensive. And funny, the hostel we stayed at were really a hotel, but they had a room with a microwave and free internet, so they called themselves hostel, haha! 

We saw an orchidee-park with no blooming orchidees, haha, and a suit made of jade and silk-thread, found in a tomb of a prince or emperor or something, but the funniest and scariest part was that we could enter the real tomb, and that was of course underground and small and scary.. At least cause it said "here we found 4 concubines" and in a monter it was some bones and other remains from humans, it looked like black little stones and sand, it was so old.. Scary!

And besides that we didn't do much. We had breakfast at Starbucks every day, cause that was the cheapest option.. It is nothing we are proud of, but that's the way it is;) And here in Hong Kong we might even be forced to eat at McDonalds, as everything is so expensive..

Okey, enough blogging today!
