Today we're going to become farmers! Will we be able to take it? Scroll down and continue reading and you will know!



Headmaster Zhang handed us the hoe for us.



The place where we are going to do work at



The teachers decided to let us go for sight-seeing and have a rest at the same time so we have to leave the things here.


The flowers grown by the people there



Headmaster Zhang explaining to us


Farmers working


The plantation


The water flow is so strong


A short introduction to the agriculture university in Nanjing.


The plaque of the Agricultural University.

Listening attentively.


Golden colour all around!


Rice stalks.


And after a long walk of sight seeing, finally we are going back there and its time for us to do some hard work!


see how hard Eline and JIAJIA is working


Laylin and Jacinta working hard




Trying to take a picture and have a rest.. haha..



YEAH!! We finally finished weeding! Even though we only did farming for not more than 1 an hour but we are already very tired. Everyone now knows how hard those farmers were working. It makes us realise that all the rice that we ate are very precious and they were the fruit of the hard work the farmers had put in! From now on, we would cherish every bite of rice we had.



The quiet road without any cars on our way back




LUNCH!


After our lunch, we have free time and after that we are going to proceed to our next destination which is the 霸王祠.




The entrance of it and we have to climb up the stairs even though it was not as long as the stairs at Sun Yat Sen but because we had used up every bit of energy at the farm house so we were all tired after climbing these stairs.




The entrance to the tomb

The tunnel was rather cool inside without air-conditioning.

Isn't it amazing?



A coffin.

The definition of some idioms with the pictures

You can see the marks left when the ancient people pulled the pail of water up

Drawings telling the life story of Xiang Yu.



Some facts and timeline of Xiang Yu.


The incense burner.


The room where Xiang Yu's statue was placed.

The statue






The bell.. you have to hit it 3 times, for some unknown reason.


And time flies, so we are back to the hostel and have our dinner!!


Finished our dinner and off we go for our free time and reflection!!

A early night for us and replenish all our energy for the next day!!
