Sights of Shen Zhen

Though I have been to Shen Zhen countless times, she never fails to fascinate me.
Here are some sights of Shen Zhen I have captured.

The chinese really love to exercise in the parks & of cos I joined in trying out all the strange looking equipments & gawking at 阿姨们 dancing their graceful fan dance !

Grabbing quick snack at Macs, I spotted the 福娃 & started being quite a nuisance hopping from table to table trying to capture all 5 of them! hehehe .. Bet the locals must be thinking what a "Sua Ku" I am ...

Oh, and this trip being SUMMER, Uncle Eugene decided to drive us down to the beach (and yes I brought my tankini but it NEVER saw daylight ! hahaha) and boy was it CROWDED ! People were everywhere but what's more amazing is that everyone is in the water with a huge yellow swimming ring bobbing to the rhythm of the waves. Oh, and there were parasailing too and I even spotted a lady walking her shoes !(check out the pic) hehehe

An old uncle was also fishing by the shore and being a kaypoh, me decided to "interview" his wife with my limited mandarin (tried to slang some more) and find out more abt them & their catch. It was a pretty enjoyable chat and their simplicity towards life made me realise how materialistic gains can never bring true happiness.

And what is a trip without trying out new food right ? So thats what we did and northern cruisine is so not my cup of tea . Too porky and me no carnivore man.
