Woke up at 6plus when my train reaches dalian at 630 haha gosh rlly getting better at sleeping deeply in public areas sia
But anw packed up, washed up and off i alight from the train to explore dalian! ^^
Stopped to help this ahma w her rolling luggage at the slope on the way out hehe
Saw Angela and laoye waiting for me at the train entrance the moment I reached the exit hehe a super happy moment tbh ^^ guess seeing a familiar face from home rlly makes a diff hehe
Then came out and followed laoye to the road where we took a cab to Angela's granny's house
Haha it's a rather old residential area but pretty well in comparison to worse off areas in china despite Angela getting a shock when she first arrived haha I guess china has rlly trained me well in threshold levels hehe
Gladly went up 4 floors in the rather packed staircase to meet laolao in her house hehe she even prepared house slippers for me at the door step and warm water at the table ^^
The house was rlly homely and clean like hdbs in spore :)
After settling down w bags in the room etc I started having bfast in the living room which was rlly nice guotiaomian with veg, tomato egg and quaileggs ^^ super nice hehe laolao kept telling Angela hwo to go whr but I could totally tell that Angela turned her ears off alr haha ohmy laolao was super lovely ^^
Then we changed - while Angela did her make up lol - and started our dalian tour!
Lol but the moment we got out of the door stupid Angela lost her sense of directions alr hahaha she totally didn't knw whr to go so we simply walked ard the area till we reached a street w colonial buildings haha took some photos there where Angela realized my scarecrow pose lol then we took a cab down to xinghaiguangchang which was a distance away whr we had to pass by a bridge
To think that I thought I can give this place a miss hahaha ended up having rubbish fun here w this girl lol
There was this skateboard-like slope/slide where we can climb/run up so we first went to the left side whr we first felt the gravity making us fall haha took some photos then we went over to the right side cause left side was against the sun
We competed to run up and Angela won but the moment she leaned her body on the slide she started sliding down hahahah
Took photos again then oh gosh we started videoing LOL did it as though it's a YouTube videologue and we went Up and down many many times to redo the video cause it was quite funny haha our voice super dia and we were just damn ridiculous lol Angela couldn't stop playing the videos and laughing for the whole day sia gosh
Went down after quite a long while to the pigeons area whr i kept running away from the flying birds haha Angela bought a pack of bird food and the pigeons kept following her
Thought she was brave but she also siammed at some point of time lol and she threw some good to my side such that the pigeons all flew towards me - and made me run away haha oh gosh
Then we went to the pier-kinda place beside the pigeons and took some photos ah there was a cute doggy running about there hehe
Walked pass an amusement park there to get to the other side through a bridge where there's this castle like place that's supeerrrr pretty haha she says this area has all the rich ppl and that castle's a hotel that we can afford haha
Grabbed a cab and off we go back to her house'a side for lunch at 15 库 for nice nice waffles at Maan Coffee!
The cafe was rlly pretty and nicely decorated for xmas which makes spore's cafe all pale so much in comparison haha
Got a seat by the window at the non-smoking area with our blue bear as their ordertoken-kinda thing then started fiddling w the electricity plugs to charge our phone haha
The waited came over and tried to help us w their new wireless charging toy lol he was a tad too helpful as leavin the phone to charge makes us unable to use it lol so we still plugged it out to charge by my charger instead haha
Our marshmallow hot chocolate, cinnamon thick toast and mixed berry waffle came soon after and oh god super yummy esp w the strawberry ice cream!! It was only 120+ rmb for both of us and just super worth it sigh spore's all so overpriced :(
So we sat there to eat - while Angela continues to get infatuated w the sliding videos lol and then her lil aunt decided to come and bring us around for a while hehe so nice of her ^^
Walked ard a bookshop after our lunch before meeting xiaoyi at 1pm in her rlly nice and new car haha the car's so cool w the overhead slot for ppl to pop their heads out hehe
She brought us around this stretch of refilled land w many pretty nice houses/villas that no one stay in cause they are afraid that the refilled land will collapse LOL and somehow the streets were rlly empty when we toured around haha
Then she drove us to fisherman's wharf 渔人码头 w those rlly rlly pretty  europeanish/Russian shophouses where we walked ard while she grab a quick lunch at macs
Saw maodetiankongzhicheng cafe here and apparently there are real cats in this outlet which Angela kept trying to find pft while I looked at postcards
Haha and here's where Angela gets introduced to meipai hahaha we took many videos of us and especially her using the model effect lol but somehow they just turn out to be kinda fail and damn funny hahaha but some were nubbad tbh ^^
Oh gosh it's actually lovely to have a friend who's the model kind to take such shots manz haha
Took turns to take the meipai videos before going back to meet xiaoyi haha just that more time was spent on videoing than rlly touring ard haha
Xiaoyi then drove us to a mountain area where we could see rlly pretty river view and 棒棰岛 where rich/high ranking leaders go to avoid the heat in summer time
Have to pay to go in which ain't worth it since we gt a full view from above the mountains alr haha
So she drove us back to ard laolao's house area and dropped us at the 植物园 to have a walk while she went back to home
And here's the Angela's infatuation w meipai hahaha we first took photos but videoed non stop at this small little bridge area hahaha she kept talking the rotating shot and insist that she's a damn good videographer hmpft
But anw videos turned out nubbad la hahaha other than the model videos that is lol
Then we went out to get to the food/shopping area by cab while she talked about the incident of this parading by a cult that got banished during her jap trip
Cabbed over (w another stranger passenger inside lol) to 胜利广场 where we first entered the toilet haha
Then went to this basement food area to grab some local food hehe
Got myself 炒焖子 which I thought was gonna be some chestnuts but no no no omg it was this rlly nice panfried tapioca cake w some mixture of gravy that made it Tate heavenly ^^ love it a lot!
Then Angela bought her jianbingguozi which wasn't authentic and nice sigh
Then we shopped ard shops in another shopping mall but lol nothing other than food interests Xiaowei hahaha so I ended up getting a matcha ice cream and she got bubble tea that she didn't like lol
Kept walking and got tired so we exited to find another food street hahaha
Ended up getting lost and making a big round before getting to the food street that she was looking for which laolao oppose to us eating haha
Bought BBQ squid, bingtanghulu, etc for our dinner
Then walked ard the place finding somewhere to go haha but we ended up in a cinema thinking that we are just gonna see what's on yet truly watching eventually haha
Caught congcongnanian by eddiepeng! Hehe got ourselves cheap tickets through xiaoyi's group coupon :)
Oh turns out that Angela loves china running man lol quite unexpected from her hahaha
The show was on China's teenager lives so it prob resonates much more w them than us ... Which we find to be rather melodramatic
Then again I rlly like the filming techniques incl the 插叙法, pretty handling of shots etc so I think it's quite ok haha not forgetting pengyuyan's face hahaha though I think I'll still enjoy huangfeihong more haha
Oh got ourselves this tea drink - brewed upon ordering sia haha and it was quite nice in taste and appearance which was in a glass bottle haha
Came out of the cinema thinking of walking back ourselves
But awwww laoye was standing right outside waiting for us omg
Apparently he came out at 630 to wait for us when our movie ended at 830! And he was afraid that we wouldn't see him so he stood in the open oh god so thankful ^^
Then we walked back to laolao's house which was just a short distance away and he let us go up first to slowly walk up the 4 storeys
And ah how grateful can I not be! Laolao prepared porridge (cooked w barley carrot pumpkin etc) quail eggs and jiaozi for our dinner awww ^^
Okay actually I felt rlly bad cause I borrowed Angela on dongzhi whr families shld wrap jiaozi tgt manz
And ate rlly big and sweet strawberries after that too oh manz
Went to bathe after that with much help from her also cause they don't usually bathe in their house's toilet Sighpiez feel like a liability especially after making their pole fall haha but she was so nice to just take it out for me to cont bathing hehe mega thankful! ^^
Came out after quite a while and laolao and laoye went to sleep while Angela bathed ... And broke the the other pole lol dumb us sia
Still thought of staying up but Angela sleep soon after ard 1 while I was packing lol so we ended up sleeping the night away haha
