热度 1 虞左俊 2011-12-10 20:40
It took three hours to travel from Nanjing to Hangzhou by a fast train (for RMB218). (I heard the travel time will be less than two hours when Gao Tie is finished.) However, it took 40 mins to get a taxi at Hanghzhou Station, where people mountain people sea was more than being accurate. Thanks to ...

It's time to pack again. I will take a fast train from Nanjing to Hangzhou at noon, though I dread the "people mountain people sea" at train stations. Nanjing was sunny yesterday, and is today. I can see the blue sky, but I wonder what the PM2.5 value is...

How to take a group photo
热度 2 虞左俊 2011-11-28 07:21
Well, try this trick, and let me know if it does not work. Just before you take the photo, tell everyone: "Now, close your eyes. Three, two, one, ...OPEN your eyes!" You WAIT for one more count, and take the photo. Good luck!
