Reach terminal 3 then my mother & I found out that our plane is at terminal 2 so call my Xiaoju, Gonggong, Grandmother, Daju & Daju Mu to tell them. After that took sky train to terminal 2, when we reach Xiaoju, Gonggong & Grandmother reach le so we check in & Wait 4 Daju & Daju Mu. When all of us reach & check in we proceed to the duty free place to buy some wine & chocolate 4 the relative & eat breakfast. Before I aboard the plane call Jelly ( pls don’t any hw thing ) to chit chat because she ask me why suddenly go there. My plane took off at 8.30am & reach Xiamen at 12.30pm is a 4 hour flight. I was very happy because my Gonggong best friend Zheng Bobo came all the way from Fuzhou just to visit us even his health is not very good & prepare alot of thing 4 us eg ( transport, gift ...... ). We were very luckily cause the Olympic torch relay just nice reach Xiamen all the road kana block, only resume after 2pm so no choice go eat lunch with them first, I was very scare cause normally China food is oily & salty but the first meal here was ok =). After lunch proceed to Millennium Hotel is a very nice hotel, Have a short break proceed to South Puto Temple with a tour guide. The tour guide is those who wan to earn money de kind, because wat she explains is not very detail & must keep on think wat to say. After that keep on wan bring us to a museum but is a place where they sell oilment & buy tea leaf & stuff but we rejected cause we meeting Zheng Bobo to have dinner & all of us are tired.

The breakfast from the hotel was SUX, but no choice still have to eat alittle cause we leaving Xiamen & proceed to my mother homeland at Dapu. the bus officially leave Millennium Hotel at 8am sharp, before leaving got a phone call from Zheng Bobo say that he is not feeling well cause ytd after dinner with us he & her wife took a cab home the cab don’t know the way keep on go round & round & throw them out of the cab half way the driver so cb lor knn, WISH HIM CAN RECOVER SOON. It took us 6 hour to reach Dapu, in between we went to Fu Jian ( Yong Ding ) to see Circle ( Yuan ), Rectangle ( Fang ) & Tu ( Mud ) Building ( Lou ), before that we go & eat the local farm food. From Yong Ding to Dapu is all rock & high mountain, if the driver nv drive safety, speed or rock fall we will fall down the mountain or die & u all cannot see me again haha. Reach Dapu at 3.30pm, the hotel we stay in is the whole town most expensive de it is equal to Singapore 3 star hotel & we pay 600 RMB for it ( $ 120 ) for 4 rooms is cheap la. When we settle down Gonggong call us go over his room to wait for our relative to arrival. I finally have Yima liao but I cannot stand her cause she very fan keep on call me do thing, call me nick name like guai guai, bao bei …… err, small little thing can laugh until so load & keep on pester my mother =(, ask me go sleep with Xiaoju then she can sleep with mother ( Why should I ??? ) then no choice I sleep sofa for the 2 day at Dapu knn I hate ppl that don’t know hw to auto cb, but her parent were very good keep on praise me =) say that I very guai will look after the family / members & I grown taller liao yep =) .

The sch got old & new block I prefer the old wan cause is more cooling, we where attend by the sch principle & he bring us go walk around the sch we were like VIP cum aliens cause when we walk into the sch all the student look at us. I was shock when I see hw they study, cause some class is preparing for they test so call ‘N’ level in Singapore their book was so tall that I only can see their above face ( above eye ) all the book is for them to refer. When we left I think about it, I told myself that we are so luckily that don’t need to bring so much book to sch in Singapore. After Hu Shan Sec went to see where my Great Grandmother stay, her house was those rich ppl stay de got only maid those kind, got a hand man half moon pool.

In the afternoon around 3+++pm went to Sun Zhong Shan memorable hall to see his history & went to Han Jiang Yuan ( Mu Qin He ) after that. It was river that connected into 3 parts. At night have dinner with Hu Shan Sec principle he treat us like VIP sia we all full like hell liao but there is still so more dish & he keep pouring wine to let us drink.

Day 5 ( 16 / 05 )
Wake up at 7am finally, today we are going to Gu Lang Yu (鼓浪屿 ) ( a famous island in Xiamen ). Officially went off to the ship centre at 10am by cab.

Gu Lang Yu ( 鼓浪屿 )
As a place of residence for Westerners during Xiamen's colonial past, Gu Lang Yu is famous for its architecture and for hosting China's only piano museum, giving it the nickname of "Piano Island" or "The Town of Pianos" (鋼琴之鄉) or "The Island of Music" (音樂之島). There are over 200 pianos on this island. The Chinese name also has musical roots, as Gu Lang means drum waves so-called because of the sound generated by the ocean waves hitting the reefs. Yu means "islet”. In addition, there is a museum dedicated to Koxinga, Haidi Shijie (海底世界) Marine World, a subtropical garden containing plants introduced by overseas Chinese, as well as Xiamen Museum, formerly the Eight Diagrams Tower (八卦樓).The island of Gu Lang Yu is a pedestrian only destination, where the only vehicles on the islands are several fire trucks and passenger transport vehicles. The narrow streets on the island, together with the architecture of various styles around the world, give the island a unique appearance.

There are a lot of attraction but we only go 2 only cause of time limit

1. Ri Guang Shi
A scenic spot on the island where you can get a bird's-eye view of the whole of Xiamen City. Hundreds of flowers grow on Ri Guang Shi, which is a 90-meter-high peak on Gu Lang Yu Island. With a gentle sea breeze, it's a quite cool place during the hot summer. On the hillside nestles Ri Guang Monastery, where the early rising sunlight penetrates. Ascending to the top of the rock, one can see the sea. At the foot of the rock, there's the Memorial Hall to honor national naval hero general Zheng Cheng Gong of the late Ming Dynasty. In the vicinity, one can find the site where general Zheng directed his fleet. From the baroque building to the Gothic cathedral, from the Shanghai-style alley to the Fujian-style courtyard, Gu Lang Yu is filled with different architectural styles. That's why it is often described as a showcase island of architecture, attracting architecture students from across the nation and the world every year to find their source of inspiration.

2.Zheng Cheng Gong
Koxinga (Zheng Cheng Gong) was the first Han Chinese leader to hold political power in the history of Taiwan. Although he died less than a year after his arrival in Taiwan, and the rule of the Cheng family lasted only 12 years, Koxinga was not categorized as a roving bandit because of political failure. On the contrary, in Taiwanese folk legend, his every action and interaction with others has been depicted as that of a saint or a sage, and temples have been consecrated to him all over Taiwan. The people of Taiwan see Koxinga as the original ancestor who developed Taiwan. This week, we have invited Professor Tai Pao-tsun from the history department at National Central University to tell us about this legendary figure in Taiwanese history
