We had a 2-hour tour of San Francisco on the tour bus. We are glad to have a tour guide to introduce the history and facts about the tourists spots and architecture. Firstly, we travelled through the streets and went to the Golden Gate Bridge. The scenery is stunning as we have a glimpse of the ocean. We travelled through the bridge and took many decent photos. After that, we drove through the downtown and Chinatown. We were amazed by the unique buildings, which are very different from those in Hong Kong.  We had the chance to visit the landmarks as well such as the City Hall. The tour was amazing and the views were fascinating, we had a great time there indeed! 

After the bus tour we went to the Fisherman’s Wharf which is the Pier 39 in San Francisco.  We had our lunch at the first business there, a bakery – Boudin. The clam chowdor is delicious. It was definitely a brand new experience for having special sour bread. Next we shopped along the street. There was a famous chocolate shop. We got a lots of tasty chocolate there. We also went to see the sea lion. The sea lion is very cute and active. They jumped in and out the sea to show their amazing body figure. We went to he tiny sea lion museum in the second floor of the Fisherman’s Wharf. We could touch different type of sea lion’s fur. Some of the fur felt smooth and soft but some of it is tough and uncomfortable. Moreover, we took many beautiful pictures along the harbor. We enjoyed the trip very much.

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!
