In the morning, after the one-hour journey coach ride to San Francisco, we boarded on the San Francisco sightseeing bus and toured around the city. The tour guide showed us around the city and told us a lot of interesting facts about it. Then, after passing the Fishermen's wharf, we headed towards the Golden Gate Bridge, which is extremely windy. The view extraordinary fascinating and we took a lot of photos on the bridge. However, the wind was so strong that nearly blew our head off and we had to hold on to our phones tight with both hands in order not to fall out of the bus. Then, we had a 10 minutes stop to take photos beside the Golden Gate Bridge. The view was absolutely photogenic, we took a lot of stunning pictures. 

In the afternoon, we toured in groups independently in Pier 39, Fisherman's Wharf which is a neighbourhood and popular tourist attraction in San Francisco. It is an ideal destination for shipping, dining and touring. We wandered into many gift shops where we saw many speciality products of Sam Francisco, for instance, we went to the Ghirardelli Chocolate Marketplace where we feasted our eyes on rows and rows of both attractive and delectable chocolate treats. It was definitely a memorable experience.

July 13th Melanie Ip Janet Lee Dorothy Ma Christine Lum   We attended a visual design class with Bill Scott and together created a get well soon card for our friend. Rather than copying the pictures directly from the internet, we were encouraged to be imaginative. We modified our original drawings of animals and stuck it onto the card. Furthermore, we were instructed to use pen instead of pencils. We learnt that making mistakes is a part of life and we should not be intimidated by this fact. After, we played a game where we rearranged letters, from an original word and made different words from it, sone in different languages. We also had neuroscience after that and we learnt more about that subject as most of us didnt have any idea of what it is. We also learnt many interesting topics regarding neuroscience and we were all intrigued. After classes we prepared for multicultural night. The event was really fun as we got to learn about the cultures and history of a few diff...

July 16th Melanie Ip Greta Lam Janet Lee Christine Lum Dorothy Ma We went on a field trip to San Francisco Bay Area where we spent most of our day. First we took a 2 hour bus tour around the city. During the tour we got to see the whole city of San Francisco and listened to the brief history of the city told by the tour guide. The Golden Gate Bridge was also a highlight of the bus tour. The wind was exceptionally strong and we can rarely experience it anywhere else. We also took a few photos before we continued our trip. We also had two hours of free time after the bus tour, so that we could walk around Fisherman's Wharf. We had a great lunch of seafood, soup and bread and it was delicious. There was also a large number of shops in the Fisherman's Wharf. Since we had some time left we shopped around and bought some souvenirs. Another great thing that we had the chance to see sea lions. We rarely see them in hk except in ocean park and it was a great exoerience for us...

Today is such a special Wednesday! We had a field trip with packed activities. In the morning, we played iFly, a memorable experience with professional instruct. After that, we even learned some physics principles to give a detailed explanation of our flight. We really took a lot from such exciting and unforgettable activity which we could never have back in Hong Kong! After lunch, we had a talk on the administration of Standford University and we learned about the detailed information for application of the university. The Stanford University is such a beautiful place, we really hope that we can continue our study there. In the evening, we had a bonfire. The sunset was magical, we had loads and loads of pictures there. It has been a pity that we did not get ourselves some smores, but it was surely a precious experience to enjoy the view and the weather!
