Last night, we got back to the hotel at 8:30 and that's as just too early, so a little group of 4 of us walked to West Lake and walked around for a couple of hours. It is the prettiest lake! Perfectly landscaped. In the water, you have lotus gardens. A couple gazebos, gorgeous with trees, including weeping willows, benches, cute little bridges, gardens. So so cute and romantic and just pretty!
We walked up to this water show 5 min before it started. It was a Bellagio-style water show with music! So awesome and we just randomly walked up at the right time!! They did 2 songs in Chinese and "time to say goodbye" so it totally felt like Bellagio!!

Yes it "randomly" started five minutes after you got there. Don't you know by now that it's the Jeannie Factor that makes all those happy coincidences in your life? :)
