The more I see of Hong Kong the more amazed I am, as I may have mentioned before we live in a very poor part of Kowloon but all you have to do is walk for ten minutes or so and you are in an exclusive part. So today we decided to check out the area of the hotel we stayed in when we came here 4 years ago in Mon Kok , we were told it was quite close to us so we decided to walk there, we eventually got there and sure enough its in the tourist area, just like another country altogether, but we decided we would go in and have a drink there and really blow our budget, but it was airconditioned and we were fussed over and ever so nice, we lapped it up but soon enough we had to move on. We then visited the Ladies and the flower markets and Tony drooled when he saw the orchids three for $7au, they were so beautiful.
When we got back we met the Principal of OPS (Monica) and she presented us with two traditional chinese jackets, they are beautiful.
FRIDAY
Today the schols have some kind of teacher seminar, and we have been invited to have lunch with them afterwards at some beautiful restaurant,(we've been there before) Lunch was delicous and went on for over 2hrs, they had some kind of awards and it was all in Cantonese so I didn't understand a word of it, but they were all very happy. I wore my chinese Jacket, I felt very chic in it.
Tonight I'm off to the Stations of the Cross and I've printed them out in English, hope that will help.
All for now
