A tour to the city

Nov. 16th 2008 - Sunday
This is another busy sunday! I played Tourist Guide for 2 US Visitors!
(Me, Tourist Guide? Only 3 months in Qingdao?)

I did well as Tourist Guide! My visitors are very happy at the end of the day!

The day started at 10 am. I rented a private car (it cost S$52 per day include driver).

We took only 20 minutes to get to the City of Qingdao (because today is Sunday, the traffic was not heavy). The weather was fantastic - sunny and temp at 15 degreeC!

We drove along the coastline, walk on the beach, visit the parks, shop by the ocean front!
Shopping included pearl and seashell necklaces, precious stone bracelets, cow-horn combs, binoculars and keychains.

We had seafood lunch by the seafront (costs S$70 for 3).

We left the City approx 4 pm (We are happy with our reasonably priced purchases!).

We end the day with foot massage and manicure and more shopping at the mall in hometown.
We bought handbags, wallets and shirts.

The tour ended at 8 pm!

Will post photos.

Tommorow is expected to be cold - 3 to 10 degreeC.
The office temp will be OK because the heater in the building has turn on.
The bad news is : Where I live, the building is only 20% occuppied, they decided not to turn on the heater! I bought extra mobile heaters for the apartment.
When the children are here next month, I hope this will be warm enough - I will monitor.

Love & Miss All of You!
