Day 1 - WUST

Woke up early in the morning at 4am and started getting ready to go off to the airport. Met up with the other people at Changi Airport. Many of our camp pinata friends were there to send us off, they reached the airport even earlier then me! After checking in, we didn't have much time to loiter around the airport since we were only just on schedule. We boarded the plane and it was a 4 hours journey to Guangzhou.The plane we are taking!

The name of their Guardian, Mannings.

We reached the airport at about 1pm. Had our first meal in China at a restaurant in the airport. The restaurant name was called Jinlong Restaurant. The environment in the restaurant was quite nice and the food was not bad, just that it was a bit saltier and oily. Looks like we have to adapt to their taste for the next 6 weeks.

The noodle i ate, Shrimp Wonton Noodles!

After our lunch, we gathered to get ready to take our transit flight to Wuhan, our final destination. This is also the first time i am taking a transit flight. We went through another 1.5 hours of flight and finally we landed safely in Wuhan! This was not all, we still need to travel by coach for another 1.5 hours before reaching our hostel.
Our dinner we had upon reaching the hostel

After dinner, we finally settled down in our bunks. Each room is to be occupied by 3 person, my room mates are Zhong Rong and Daniel. The room turn out to be better than what i was expecting. This is really a interesting experience for me to travel overseas together with friends instead of family and for such a long period of time. This is also the first time i have travel to China. Hope we will have a enjoyable and interesting trip for the next 6 weeks!
