A day at the beach....sandy and warm.


Friday was filled with music!! J's CT took several primary students to Discovery College for an "Orchestra Jam." Upon arrival we were whisked to sections where I got to lead the violin 3's. It was an awesome experience of being thrown into a situation, not knowing all the kids, and being successful. I had fun and the kids were successful!!
Saturday Eric took J and I to Mong Kok. We bargained our way through the Ladies Market buying many authentic and touristy things. We also go to browse the Hong Kong Professional Teacher's Union Store. It reminded me of bradburns, walgreens, and borders in one. I bought some folders for A4 paper as the paper here is longer than in the states. I also bought a children's book with pictures and Cantonese for basic items.
After our 3 hour excursion to church on Sunday morning we met Kaitlin and headed for the Hap Mun Bay Beach, a short boat ride from the Sai Kung Public Pier. It was November 1st and the 3 of us were in swim suits, covered in sun screen, and swimming in the ocean. It was a fabulous way to end the week!!
