Arrival @ Nanjing Sports Institute

Finally! After a 4-hr bus ride from the airport, we arrive at the renowned Nanjing Sports Institute. As we turn in from the boulevard, we are all in awe of the majestic buildings and training centres of different sports. This piece of land where the institute stand is also of great historical significance. This is the very place where Dr Sun Yat Sen based his camp during the revolution, opening up a new era in China's history. WOO HOO!


Everyone arrived safely at our hotel, named "HUI CUI LOU". After unpacking our bags, we gathered at the hotel cafeteria for lunch. PHEW! It is sumptous. A ten-course lunch comprising rice, fish, chicken, broccoli, soup, pork, beef, etc. Hmm... hope we won't grow fat after a week of training... hahhahaha...



Wanna find out more about the institute? KEEP COMING BACK TO OUR BLOG YA! We'll keep you updated as much as we can... its a little difficult to find internet.. :(

Hi Patrick and all,

Glad to see the kids safe and sound and smiling for the shot after the long and tiring 4-hr ride.

The meal looks sumptuous, can't smell it from here though, but I guess the ketchup does help to entice.

The photos do a lot of help. More photos would be good.

Thanks for taking care of our kids. Thanks.
