Second day of OELP

Second day
Today,we left Shanghai and headed for Yangzhou.We had to wake up very early in the morning and took a bus ride for almost 3 hours.We had lunch and after that,we went to Geyuan Garden(个园).After visiting Geyuan Garden,we went to a paper cutting museum(剪纸博物馆). When we visited the paper cutting museum we had the chance to do some paper cutting. However, a problem arise.It was our turn to do the paper cutting but another group was there before us and hence they started with the paper cutting although it was our turn. Hence, we decided to go to the Grand Canal first. After we took a boat ride on the Grand Canal, we returned back to the Paper Cutting Museum. Before we started to do the paper cutting,I thought paper cutting was very easy and simple.However, I found out that I was wrong.Paper cutting required a lot of patience and concentration.My end result was a very torn horse. Finally, we went to one of the local supermarket's in a shopping mall. China's supermarket are huge. There were almost anything in the supermarket.The supermarket was so big me and my group mate,Adon, ended up getting lost and we were unable to find our other group mates. Luckily, we managed to find them.This was out of my expectation because I have always thought Yangzhou was a village-like city. However I realised that  Yangzhou was actually quite modernised.
