Last year I bought the air tickets from China easter airline business class to London it is only 13k almost 50% off.

Normally the economic class is about 6 or 7K.
Sometimes we don’t think it is a good deal because the fix the date we don’t know if we can meet the schedule.
my husband played a period of time, first he buys a Nikon and he says he wants a lens to shoot the wide and then I want another one to macro.

now photo is very easy to get, 20 years ago we pay money to buy a box of film for 36 pictures and we would count everyone can only use 6 opportunities, now it is easy you take it you feel not satisfied you can delete it. We feel it changes our life, you can take a lot and take pictures by yourself.

A lot of pictures in your phone but you just look at it once a year.
