6th Day - Sanya - Bye!

I actually made a boo-boo of the flight timing and we were early by about 3 hours. We could have slept longer and have a Macdonalds breakfast rather than the sucky food at the airport.



Look at Sam's grouchy face. He was quite pissed with my blunder.

Finally time to board at about 10am.



Bye Hainan Island :)

5th Day Sanya - Happy 2010

Our last morning at Sanya before we make our way back to Haikou.





Stopped by a small restaurant to have lunch before proceeding to Haikou.



Sam saw this familiar name of one of his buddy. :) Joke is this is actually quite a well know lingerie brand name in China.


Macdonalds have standardise their packaging and restaurant decoration across the world.

Can't say the same for KFC.


We shopped area near our hotel. Nothing much plus it was pouring.
Thus ended our Hainan trip.

4th day Sanya

Finally paid for a better breakfast.
It's a funny thing that this hotel have two classes of breakfast - one to the local, and one international. I didn't know there are double standard treatment when I booked the hotel online.


Roamed the streets. Seeing ladies tending their nutmeg stall. Apparently the locals loves nutmeg, especially cab drivers.



Their shopping area. Feels alot like Bugis in Singapore. Lots of small shops.

Had lunch at this cafe "Coffee Time" Food is not bad. And we had the rose tea which taste like hot "bandung"

After lunch, we venture Dadonghai beach. It is another nice beach, unlike Sanya beach which is quiet and less bustling. Anyway after looking at the three beaches in Sanya, would say most beaches look alike :) But I am sad to say the Chinese do not manage beaches as well as Thai's, Indo's, or Msians.











Our simple dinner again.

Took the boat ride for the countdown. It's really cold as I wasn't prepared for the cooler temperature at night.
I was in shorts and tank top the whole day. :) Almost frozed.... :)

After that we returned to our hotel. Surprised the beach came alive. Oh, actually the Russians have an event there for the countdown to 2010.

We had our own celebration and bought fire-works to let off. :) It was our 1st time as letting off fireworks is illegal in Singapore.

It was a great experience.
And a nice ending to 2009, and a warm welcome to 2010. :)

3rd Day Sanya

This is the Yalong Bay Tropical Paradise forest park.
They have the electronic tourist map to guide you, in case you are lost.

There are alot of different breeds of Orchid. Alot similar to Singapore botanical gardens.






This is rather similar to our tree top walk from Macritchie reservoir, just that this is higher.





Had lunch near the Yalong Beach area.







Yalong beach. Nicer than Sanya beach. There are more foreigners staying here. The hotels here are more up-class too.

Had my portrait drawn this time round. Resembles me.

Went to Nantian Hotspring, where they shoot Miss Universe one of the years :)

Love the outdoor hotspring here. Can just lie and sleep there for hours.



We had dinner at our of the local "zhi char" similar type of restaurant.
Food is so-so, price is cheap though.
Realised we are not seafood fans, so didnt really order seafood. We just wanted simple meal.
