HKAC

I now live on the Hong Kong Adventist College campus. Let me show you around it. The entrance of the campus is guarded by two tall black gates.



 The first thing that you see once you get onto the campus is a roundabout with flowers and a giant rock with Chinese words on it.



 At the roundabout you can either go diagonally to the left or to the right. I usually go to the right road so let me show you along it. The first thing that you see on your right is a long three storey, red-brick secondary school that the whole campus is based on.

       

 On your left is a small park-like area with a couple of benches and trees.



 After the small park-like area you see the primary school that I study at. It is also a red-brick building.


 Soon afterwards a road goes off to the right so that it runs parallel to the main road. 



The main road continues to the church while the other one goes to the health centre and down to the apartments. I live in the apartments so I will take you down that road. The first thing on your right is the boys/girls dorm. Then there is the health centre which has a small restaurant and rooms to stay in.



 Then you go down the hill to the apartments. The apartments are also red-brick and 4 stories high.



 There is a parking lot in front of the apartments. That is as far as you can go on the road; if you drove any further you would drive off the hill! That is the end of my tour.

Back in HK


Sorry I haven't posted in a long time; we haven't had internet for a while and I've also been going to school. You'd think that if I was going to school I wouldn't have to do this blog, but no, I still have to do it and I still have to use correct grammar; and speling =). So, because I am at school, my blogs will be much more boring. Now we are living in a different apartment in Hong Kong. I will tell you more about it another time.  

 After our ten days in Melbourne we went to Sydney for five days. While in Sydney we did all the usual tourist things and some special things like walking across the Sydney Harbour Bridge or watching an opera in the Sydney Opera House (semi-boring). The best thing in Sydney was buying a new computer game from the Mac store. The place that we were staying in was right in the heart of Sydney so we were close to all the main attractions. 

Here are some pictures from Sydney:
