6D5N Shanghai-Suzhou-Wuxi-Shanghai (Day 3)

Still at Suzhou, and it happened to be the 15th of the Chinese New Year. Merry-making was all around us as we went out of the hotel for dinner. Rather than staying inside the hotel for room service, I asked my colleague to bring me about.

The American had left for Pudong to catch another flight to Bangkok. (What the heck is such travel policy that allowed him to go to Bangkok and work in the hotel room without going to the factory?? Such double standards.)

We had a big plate of celery (least favourite food of mine, but it tasted surprisingly good), stewed pig trotters and a huge bowl of soup. And something else I'd forgotten.

My colleague ate two bowls of rice (wow!), while I could hardly finished mine. And she polished off the gooey pig trotters (double wow!).

Then it was back to the hotel as we need to depart for Wuxi the next day.

Midnight, wokened up by a dazzling display of fireworks, right outside my bedroom window.
