HONG KONG NEWS

Well the past two weeks have been very uneventful, to say the least. At the schools for the most part of the week and then on the weekend catching up and maybe a little sight-seeing, and as one gets to see more of Hong Kong it turns out to be much of the same. The weather has turned quite mild but ever so sultry, but it is nice not to feel so terribly cold all the time.

Last Sunday we visited the Cathedral, and I think it was a bit different to what I'm used to, there were a few pews at either side and then mostly only standing room. As they have just had a new Cardinal appointed here, we thought we might go to his Mass on the Saturday but when we saw the seating arrangement, we decided against going.

Then we visited the gardens and the Zoo all in the one enclosure, it was very interesting as they have so many types of moneys and birds and even some plants from Australia, very enjoyable, then we had  a trip around HK by Ferry.


Fr Harry Dyer arrived on Sunday and will be here for 3 days for meetings etc, he did say Mass yesterday, he was extremely tired but we were delighted to see someone from home.
