D2: Saturday, 2/11/2013
--------------------------
Pudong -> Town

Nyenyak gillerrrrlaa..hihihi..
Then around 0530Hr..
Bangun solat subuh then mbersihkn dri..as if gosok gigi&cuci muka(since we already in china,so need to adapt their style..haha)..

Went to Terminal 1..

Bought a ticket for 1 day trip Metro..
price RMB18 for 1 day..for 2days xde..
for 3days ade tp xingat harga..so klu agak2 nak bjalan hanya di shanghai selama this 3days provided pandai simpan tiket..bleh la bjimat..sbb lagi murah bbanding 1day trip ticket..
Rmb 18 for 1day..
For 3days =RMB18 x 3 = RMB54..
tp dia lbh murah dr RMB54.. :)

Klu banyak nk bjalan blehla bli 1day ticket..tp hanya utk naik metro..klu nak guna utk semua: metro,bas,train..bleh bli travel pass..mcm TouchN'Go..deposit RMB20 then bleh topup2..

Tempat dituju : Holiday Inn Express Zhabei..
Transport: Metro line 2(Pudong airport->People's Square) then Metro line 1(PS -> Shanghai Railway Station)

Airport to town about 1hour..

Shanghai railway station..loss!!!
Nampak dh dr jauh bangunan..
Jalan punya jln..agaknya dlm 3-4km dgn lugage bjalan..lalu bwh railway..tjumpa plak kedai mkn halal..

At last sampai hotel @0900Hr..
Ok..bleh check in 1000Hr..
So we all decide brunch dlu then return back utk check-in..

Kedai mknn halal tdi dituju..again lalu bwh railway etc..

We try mee lutsinar&kueh teow china..mmg sgt lain..
mee sup daging RMB14 x 2 + pepsi sebotol rm4 = RMB32

Dh kenyang, check-in..mandi(xblehla ikut depa..haha)

Then,our journey began..

1. Beli tiket train ke Suzhou & Xian..

Sblah hotel ada international glasses center..
Banyak kedai spectacles/opto di sni..
Then,nampak station sblah dia kitorg masuk..
Tanya counter psl xian..
Dia ckp 18Hrs journey..what!!!
Mlantun mata ku..
Xjadi bli balik nanti bru bincang..

Jalan lg ke depan..
Nampak lg station..masuk ke counter tiket..

Dia ckp ke Xian utk sleep @1855Hr dh abes..yg tgl 1540Hr..price sama RMB310..
Yg tgl seat,price RMB180..

So, we got 2choices:
1855hr -> 0915hr (seat/14hrs) RMB180
1540hr -> 0815hr (sleep/16hrs) RMB310

Manakah pilihan kami?!

1. Byk masa jalan di shanghai,14hrs,murah tp SEAT!!

2. SLEEP tp kurang masa utk jln2, 16hrs, mahal sket(xpe)..

So,kami mmilih utk no.1..dgn harapan bleh booking skali utk balik nanti..amek sleep plak..
Skalinya xbleh booking tix >3days(max)..
Bdoa la supaya blk nanti ada sleep..(mcm pelik ja sleep&seat..haha..sebab depa pgl cenggitu)..
Bli skali tix utk ke suzhou..
Price RMB16..

Rupa2nya kami bru realize..first station tu adalah long-distance bus station..hahahaha..ngeng..
