China - Yunan Trip Part 3

Day 3
Today we headed off to 云南农业大学, quite surprised lor, cos there is actually something like a 农业大学. The stuff they study here are all related to agricultural stuff.
Well, the main purpose we came here is to look at the tea they have here. So we went to the 云南农业大学茶学系, where the students there explained to us the benefits of drinking tea and introduce to us the various types of tea they have here. Some of the tea here is really high quality one. My family really bought a lot of tea. They bought like 1400RMB worth of tea including 普洱茶, 七叶胆 and 三七花.

After that we have some spare time so we went back to Kuming City to do some shopping. And i must say the service here is really bad. We should be glad the service here is of some standard. I initially saw a pair of shoes that i like and they have the exactly same size i want (cos its on display, but only one shoe is on display). Then i asked the sales person if he have the other shoe cos i want to buy, very 夸张 lar, you know what he say? He say must what till afternoon for the storeroom to be opened but after that i am gone le lor. How to buy? Then in the first place why bother to display the shoe if u dun have the shoes? Then he didn't even bother to like go help me ask or something, just say dun have and like walk off. When i ask him i want size 7, he like dunno what i am talking like that. Hello, like that how to sell things to customer. Very Jialat one lar.
Roaming down Kuming City, is a very scary thing also. In fact, i guess for the whole of Yunan, crossing the street is a really scary thing. They dun really follow the traffic rules. You can like literally hear a car horn every few seconds. Very stressful walking down their streets.

After shopping and tea appreciation, we went back to our bus and its a 5 hour bus trip to 大理. The bus trip is really tiring, heard that there will be a 7 hour bus ride in the next few days. *Faints*

We then rested at a 5 star hotel at 大理凤凰温泉度假酒店.

There is actually 温泉 in the bathroom of the hotel. First time 泡温泉, its so relaxing!!! So shiok!!!

Thats pretty much Day 3, not much pictures taken today cos nothing much happens, its just travelling and shopping.

Things are getting really a bit boring here. It would have been so much fun if i am here with my friends instead.
