mini trip

just for kicks, i've decided to take some pictures of the scene while i walk from my apartment to the lab. probably boring and not super exciting lol.

[strange pillars]
[nice picnic-y area to the left]
[this is where we found the crab][junction of the road leading to the lab][my "artistic" shot of the road, haha]
[lab building]
earlier that morning, we got to borrow some bikes from the aquarium, so in the afternoon after work, michael and i decided to bike around and this is what we saw at the junction to the main road:

[awkward? train and triceratops]
[a close up. of course, all respectable dinosaurs should have bowties right?]
[close up of train. seems that this was a cafe back in the days... hm.]
[an inside view. looks like something that could be found in a 1950s american roadside diner.]
[closest restaurant to civilization]
on our way back, we rode by this fruit orchard of some sort. michael and i concluded that they were probably mangos, and inspired by darin's similar adventure with his friend in india and mango stealing, i decided to do take one too lol. i had to climb down the rocky wall to get into the orchard (it was depressed from the main road). and now, i have a lovely, red but unripened special kenting mango sitting in my fridge lol. afterwards, the guys and i decided to cook some potstickers and we ended up sitting around and talking about random stuff like chinese history and hallucinogenic drugs, haha. then i proceeded to knocked out at 10pm.. tired from a fun exploration day.
