Hakka tulou
Today we went to visit the most famous complex of tulou (earth buildings) built by the Hakka people. It was a long trip, but worth it! Such a marvelous place, immersed in step-fields valleys… and in a beautiful sunny day!
With my grandparents and at the restaurant
I like this Dongbei restaurant, it has a lot of funny objects attached around, old communist posters and a very nice old man working there, who always comes to greet me and smile to me. Also I like the food there 🙂 I love eating the dumplings’ skin and I also experienced for the first time eating fish (a big steamed perch)! 😛
At the botanic garden
I went to see the botanic garden together with grandpa and grandma… it was HUGE and very beautiful, an incredible landscape full of so many different trees.
In the end we arrived to a place, next to a Buddhist female monastery, which was full of cats! They welcomed us with their meows and I playfully screamed at them. 😀
Such a wonderful and peaceful place!
And ten
Today I am ten months old, and still growing fast 😉
We went to celebrate in an Italian restaurant, since I love pizza so much!!
When people see me they all think I am a doll… but why? Can’t you believe my cute beauty is real? 😀 😀
Xiamen
Here we are, finally! Just arrived to the warm south! To the city of Xiamen, beautiful and green, built on an island.
I’m really eager to go to the sea but we are still waiting for the warmest sun and the bluest sky! Come quickly!!
Qingdao
In the restaurants and cafes of Qingdao with grandma and grandpa, whom I finally meet!!
The first one is the Italian restaurant where my uncle Kai works. The second, a Japanese restaurant where you can order and eat as much as you want. The third one was a ShanXi cuisine restaurant full of traditional things: grandma brought me around and helped me explore all of them! 🙂
And finally in a café where they served a very good espresso (it seems my parents can’t live without it… and as you know I also love it! :P). In that café I even got two new cute japanese books, a gift from the owner.
In the last two photos you can see an open air barber shop!!
My first Christmas
My first christmas! The tree full of presents, decorations everywhere, sweet warmth and happyness… and did you see what big flower I manage to pluck? 😉
Baptism
One hundred days!
Today I am one hundred days old, so we celebrated all together, preparing (and eating!) Chinese dumplings (gorgeous!) – and Italian fishes 😉
