Friends visit Part 3

3rd day i went to tong li with them. my wife and son did not join us because he need to go to school.

同里古镇风景优美，镇外四面环水，古镇镶嵌于同里、九里、叶泽、南星、庞山五湖之中。镇区被川字形的15条小河分隔成七个小岛，而49座古桥又将小岛串为一个整体。建筑依水而立，以“小桥流水人家”著称，是目前江苏省保存最为完整的水乡古镇，也是省重点文物保护单位，已列为太湖十三大景区之一。

HS bought 10 wooden mobilephone accessory for his friends back in singapore. he requested the stalk owner to engrave the name on each of those accessory. that poor man... anyway, i understand from another friends in suzhou that we bought it at 3 times the price. look like we are being conned... the stall owner must be laughing to the bank after we left his stall.

this is the phone accessory that i am talking about. it has a very nice tong li drawing on each wooden plate about the size of 2cmx3cm.

wee turning for a picture while sir chua heading forward with his video cam capturing more live video.

these birds catch fish in the stream. their neck is tied with a string so that every catch the bird did, they were not able to swallow the fish. the woman would just squeeze the fish out from the birds.

the white tree. can't remember what it is called.

one of the many gardens in tong li. we visited at least 4 of these gardens. these gardens were stayed by wealthy people 400/500 years ago.

well synchronised picture. right leg crossed.
