Our first stop was the Hakka tea planation. A place where they introduce us to the chinese tea and the LingZhi.
we tried frying the tea leaves! and the one who kick the ball rolling was RONG XING, my group leader
the LingZhi(s)
What's this black colour thing? it's the LingZhi soup..it's VERY bitter
after the frying, lets try out the final product! Teas!
After lunch, we went to the next destination, Chang Ming Chun 长命村. Along the way there, Xiao Deng told us about the story about the well water which said to bring longevity. Before we alighted the bus, he reminded ask us to bring along our water bottle down to bring some of the water back.
this is the well water Xiao Deng was talking about
Xiao Deng became a temporary bottle filler, he filled all our bottles with the water. he even say he should charge us for doing that.
There were rides for us to take there too. Do not think too far, not the kind of amusement park ride but rides on animals! There was either the horse or the bull. Some took a try on the horse but no one took the bull.

The rest who did not take any ride up and down the hill, went to try archery.
Mr Wong was the first to try out
I had a shot too.
While we were on our way to the next destination, we had a stop over at a Strawberry farm. This was the stop that everyone was all looking forward to, especially Elizabeth.

Everyone bought what they plucked! A fruitful trip.
Then we proceed on to our next destintation the Sun Yat Sen Memorial Park.
There was where the most comical scene was seen. Before we enter the park, everyone was looking for the wash room already. After Xiao Deng got the tickets, almost everyone ran to the wash room after entering the park.This is what happened when there isnt any toilet to use after such a long journey.
have a peek!
The toilet was very nicely decorated and it was one of the most classy toilet we went. It was so nice until most of us start taking out our camera and snapping picture of it.
After eveyone was out of toilet, we went for a guided tour around the house that Sun Yat Sen live in. Took a look at how the house he live in look like and all the things that he used. Photography was not allowed inside therefore no pics to show.

We were then bought to another building, the memorial hall, where the history about Sun Yat Sen were all display there.
