travelling back to nanjing and moving into a hotel... =)

Day 19 – 10 Aug (Sun)

Had to go back to nanjing again today… went to this noodle house near our place for lunch… I ordered this 馄饨汤 (wanton soup) &葱油面 (dry noodles)… the wanton soup was pretty gd… probably about 10 small wantons, costing only 3RMB = S$0.60, while the noodles cost 3.50RMB = S$0.70… haha… there were too many wantons, so gave some to William… as for the noodles, initially it tasted fine…but later, felt damn gelard… (not sure about the spelling?) coz the noodles were damn oily… taste wise was quite alright… anyway, I ordered a beef noodles soup for takeaway coz by the time I get back to nanjing, it’ll be around dinner time, and it’ll prob be difficult to find food, so I guess it’ll be better to just buy something back… the beef noodles was more ex, 12RMB + 1RMB for takeaway… most of the people bring their own pots or containers for takeaway, but since I didn’t have 1 of my own, I had to pay extra for the plastic container…

Reached nanjing at around 4+pm… the journey was quite alright… watched prison break on my archos player… =P anyway, as mentioned previously, I was supposed to move out of my nanjing apartment immediately… so the company driver who picked me up from the airport first sent me back to my original apartment to pack some clothes and other necessities, before sending me to a hotel… I stayed at 山水大酒店 which was a really nice 4 or 5 star hotel… very comfortable… =)

After checking in, I had my dinner in the hotel before going out again to view my new apartment… it’s at a place called 梅花山庄, environment looked much nicer…the apartment itself was also quite nice & new… apparently, the owner moved out coz her husband was posted to shanghai for his work, and she’s following him there… this new apartment might be smaller than my previous one, but the space is still more than enough, since I’m just staying alone… in fact, I prefer a smaller place, so that it’ll be a little more cozy, instead of giving me this sense of emptiness or loneliness… moreover, it’ll be easier to clean up the place as well! =P
