♡ Day 5 & 6 - 18th April, Thursday ♡

Day 4 ღ 18th April ღ Hubei to Shenzhen

Fish porridge w/ vegetables
ෆ's pork ribs w/ a lot more vegetables
$10 SGD

ෆ lost appetite so we had something bland for breakfast. Surprisingly their porridge was very nice but ෆ's pork ribs are a tad salty. The teapot set is ෆ's favorite but i find it too traditional, i would prefer something more modern like TCC's teapot so we decide to have 2 sets of them for our future home.

we're shifting hotels & cities today
i don't really know why is my arm in that awkward position

Traveling light & leaving our luggage at Hubei Hotel as we would be back in 4 days' time. We took their high speed train at 160km/h to Shenzhen & back to Haifu Hotel that we stayed at last year. The tickets cost $32 SGD & top up $4 SGD to travel by 1st class, we might try that on our next trip.

Cafe De Coral
$12 SGD

Strolled at Dongmen Laojie & visit some old friends. Glad that some of them still remember us due to our crazy shopping habits.

the best steamboat right behind our hotel
$30 SGD

Ordered too many dishes but we managed to finish most of them. Miss the claypot chicken which is even yummier. ෆ introduce to me Apple Vinegar Drink which is quite nice although i don't take vinegar.

the initial colors that i wanted that ෆ painstakingly arrange the color tone for me
just because they can't be baked in the gelish machine

Vainpot ෆ did manicure & pedicure

$32 SGD for my gelish & ෆ's mani & pedi

Just like last year, after our steamboat meal we will have manicure & pedicure session. The staff actually remembered us as a couple that do their nails together.

Day 5 ღ 19th April ღ Shenzhen to Hong Kong

ෆ looks like a kid who has done something wrong & is hiding behind me for protection
maybe the jumbo elephant? *inside joke of ours

big breakfast
black sesame soya milk
$9 SGD

our bursting shopping basket

at the cashier

happy w/ our buys

Initially we were just looking for SASA as we remember it's somewhere beside New Town Mall. Halfway through circling NTM, i saw NaRaYa & excitedly pulled ෆ over.
ෆ's the one putting a few colors of the same design in the shopping basket when i only wanted to get 1. ෆ's theory: "Since you like it so much & HK got it, don't need to trouble your friends to get it for you. Just buy to your heart's worth!"

the fishballs are really nice!!

herbal jelly for our tea break
$10 SGD

We spend $102 SGD at ෆ's favourite Ladies Street. Trained back to Shenzhen for dinner & ෆ got some more shopping to do.

food that isn't appetizing to us
$13 SGD

not all of them are mine, some are for ෆ's mom
$146 SGD

ෆ finally bought cases for his phone @ Dongmen Laojie for such a steal
ෆ is the one that took these pictures, such a vainpot!!
$24 SGD for 6 Cases
