This plant is called Sempervivum Ciliosum.

The white ones are new born baby plant. But I think some of them died, because they turned to brown color.


This one looks beautiful, but I forgot the name.


And this is Victoria Cruziana (wiki), the wiki said some of them can hold up to 70 pounds weight!!!

OXFORD TRIP --- PLANT 1

Last time I went to Oxford botanic garden, as agronomy student graduate China Agricultural University, I like plant so much.

This greenhouse stand at the entrance of botanic garden. It's very small, and the plant seems not very well.
But there still some amazing plant.


This is the first time I saw such a big well decorated Christmas tree.


The shape of the greenhouses are strange. why they use this shape?


A beautiful corner in the garden.

Oxford Trip --- Harry Potter Dining Hall


Actually it is not as big as I thought, but I think the real sights are much more beautiful than the movie. Because there are tooooooo many travelers, I only took 3 pictures.
This is the whole sight of the dining hall.

These dinner sets are tidily put on the table. Why there are two kinds of spoons and forks for one people. Who can help me what are they used for? thanks a lot.

Yeah, our leading role coming----- the table~

Oxford Trip --- Building

I am still alive after several dead weeks exams. Haven't update my blog for a long time, now I am going to show you some pictures I took from Oxford on 28th November.

This picture took in front of the entrance of Christ Church. I think the only thing in it worth to see is the Harry Porter's dinning hall.


so, this one was took in Christ Church, it's a big square, but the tourists can not walk into it.

I like this picture, I think there must be a story behind this man, but I don't know and the tourists guide does say.

A little horrible, it's a wooden baby.

This is the sign of the Church, maybe some day, I will dig out the story of these beautiful pictures.

This picture took from the University Church of St. Mary the Virgin. It's quite a long name. The view on this tower is amazing!!! You can see 360° of the oxford. Unluckily the weather that day is bad, suddenly cloudy, suddenly shining.


It's getting dark now, and this sundial can now work anymore. I think if people use sundial to find the time, they will be crazy, during the October and November, it's always raining in England, nearly everyday, there is no sun, how can the sundial works?!

Trip to Nottingham 2

Still Wollaton Park.

This big tree stand infront of an old Castle. And the Wite Glass building it seems to be the Castle's Garden, I guess there must be some fanciful flowers, like ages ago the black tulip.


I really like this Pic. Large grass land tall trees and nobody. It's quiet and made me feel relax.


This is a path to Castle.

The Castle, the pic was took from the side view.
I really like this pic, actually it was not took by myself.

This is my favorite pic took by myself. I just put the Camera on the ground and push the shutter, then it came out. feels sooooo good~~~


Trip to Nottingham 1

Haven't update my blog for a loooooong time.
These days I am busy adapting the new environment.
It's really hard for me, I used to live in an easeful school, thinking nothing about future and Job.
I suddenly found Chinese is not a well accepted race because the Media always report the negative things happened in China. Luckily I have some good friends here. Just temporarily forget the nationality.

10th October I went to Nottingham to pay a visit friend who comes from Shihezi, we live in the same Town and study in the same school, China Agricultural University.

Nottingham is really beautiful.

This photo was took in Wollaton Park. There are some wild animals in this park, the Caution is very interesting, it says "take care of estrous deer". Is it means that deer may do something on human beings?

This is a sign of park, but it stands much far away from park gate, nearly 3km away.

He is a good cook, This is the best meal I've ate science I arrived UK.

The railway station
