Ocean Park

Well today is the day I have been looking forward to since I first arrived in Hong Kong-- the K3 picnic at Ocean Park! Ocean Park is a marine mammal park, oceanarium, and animal theme park all rolled into one. There are some thirty five attractions and rides-- including a roller coaster, gondola lift, and pandas!! The tickets are fairly expensive (as most theme parks are) so I have been eagerly anticipating May 7th, when the school pays my way AND buys my McDonald's meal! The best part was all the Yuen Yuen schools were going, so Liza, Becca, and Mel would all be there as well!

So it was dissapointing to wake up in our little flat on the 17th floor to a crazy thunder and lightning show this morning. The government posted an "amber rainstorm" warning, and with that my Ocean Park dreams were shattered. I am at school but only the K3's are here today (and only until noon at that!) I taught two classes but have spent the rest of my time trying to determine what fabric & fit I want for my long evening dress I am having tailor made in Shenzhen this weekend! Big wedding next Friday-- Tripp will share the crazy details later.. he tells it better than me!
