Er Mei Shan!!Snow!

DAY 13

We needed to get up by 6 this morning.It was really a pity that we could'nt sleep in as the hotel bed was really comfortable and the room was so warm!:(We went to get breakfast before setting off for the next mountain,Er Mei Shan!We had to change quite a number of buses before getting on the bus that will drive us to our destination.The road to the mountain was not a very pleasant one because it was such a bumpy ride with lots of turns!A lot of people had motion sickness because of it:(!Luckily,I was fine:)




When we reach the destination,we could see that the mountains was covered in snow!:)We have to climb some distance before taking a cable car to the top.Hence,we had to buy some special hiking shoe material that would help prevent us from slipping!It was really a great experience climbing up even though my 'shoe spike' kept on coming off:(
The view on the way up:)
Surrounded by snow..:)

On the way to the top!









After climbing some distance,we went on to join a long (and packed) queue to take the cable car to the top of the mountain!It took some time for it to finally be our turn to be on the cable car! The cable car here are quite different from the cable car back in Singapore..It can carry up to 100 people and the ride to the top only take 1 minute!But because there were too many people packed inside the cable car,we had a hard time trying to look at the view outside while on the way up:(, which was quite sad..We got to the top and spent some time there (to take pictures etc) before heading back down and back to the school:)

Trying to kill time while waiting for the cable car!!:)



Only part of the cable car queue!
This is the view when we reach the top!:)nice?
