    It was an enjoyable ride in the limo. The interior was great, its so comfortable and the entertainment system was great. Complimentary champagne as well. However i wish the journey was longer.

    Dogs

    My two lovely dogs. Smaller one is called Sydney and the Golden Retriever is called Paris.
    Paris is about 1yr old now. She has a caring heart and a long tail. Its like a whip whenever she waggles her tail. She loves to play and be pampered with.

    Sydney however is the latest edition to the family. She is roughly around 2 months old and she was given by a close friend. Sydney however is a spoilt dog. She is considered a house pet, meaning she roams freely in the house. Well there is no jealousy between Sydney and Paris. Paris does takes care of Sydney whenever Sydney goes out to the garden. Even though Sydney is small, she is a big bully to Paris. Anyway Paris just entertain her. They are cute and a friendly pair.

    Jiu Zhai Gou is located in Sichuan Province in Mainland China. We flied to Chengdu, and then bus for 10 hours to get there. Actually, there is 1-hour flight from Chengdu to Jiu Zhai Gou available, but only 1 flight per day that we couldn’t catch it. If you want to visit this beautiful land, late Oct/ early Nov is the best season to go, you will be excited by the colorful leaves and mirror-like pond. There would be very crowded by 60,000 visitors in that period.

    Thanks for that AChan. If (when!) I go to China, I'll put Jiu Zhai Gou on my list.

    Very nice pics, Ekinox0621. Quite different from the usual fare, and it works well.

    yes! i did some posttreatments on the pictures, but not too much !
    the orange lightning is because we use sodium lights in the streets, and the color is orange ;)
