From Sherry got sth want to say
Dear Baby John, sorry for waiting my late comment. First of all, we all came back to Hong Kong safely. Are you happy? I think you must laugh loudly. That laugh must from your heart. Actually, I think you really done a great job. Your unconditional love and enthusiasm make all of us enjoy the tour. You really a wonderful teacher. It is so rare for me to admire someone. Therefore, you should be proud of yourself, Baby John. I knew you may not organize such a study tour next year. For us, it was really a bad news. However, I really understand your decision. It was extremely hard to arrange a trip, especially such a great trip. Above all else, you worried many things. You worried whether we enjoyed the trip or not. You worried we got lost You worried our safety. You really got a lot of things to worry. Without thinking, you were very care about us. Still remember 3 Form 1 students and I got lost on 5th July. I have to apologize that I made you worried. Nonetheless, I need to clarify it was not your (Baby John and Miss Shek) irresponsibility. Both of you didn’t bear responsibility for the unfortunate losing. I think could learn more from this year trip. I meant I not only improve my English Level, but also experience more. I experience their culture and their lifestyle deeply. I experience overseas life by taking public transport (Underground and Bus), eating in a different kinds restaurant including France restaurant, shopping in a rich and poor area and so on. Feeling is fresh, really different this year. I really feel I am growing! Last year, we need to follow the schedule step by step day by day. In the morning, we had lesson mix with student from different countries. After lunch, we had some exciting activities. And then, special bus would take us go home, go to our host home. This year, we had more freedom time. We could do everything we want. We just need to tell John and John would organize for us. At the same time, everyone needed to learn how to take care self. For example, sometimes, we need to cook by self. And we also need to wash clothes by hand. To be frankly, this trip trained us to be independent. That’s another reason I feel I am growing! Baby John, you really done a great job!!!! Thanks for organizing and treating us for many times in expensive restaurant. Thanks so much. I have never met a teacher like you. You really set a great model for me. You know, you are the best teacher in my life. Sherry 21/7/2008
Gay day. Wonderful day!!
I took a lot of picture with gay men.
They are nice''
The Gay Party was conducted in a cordial atmosphere.
Had a very very good atmosphere.
We can't find it in HK.
John..I really enjoy the trip ..we tired to walk a long time everyday..But We can see London eye ..Big Ben and London Bridge is very happy..I am sorry I get lost in London.
Hey!=] Hey,John!I really want to say thank you for this brilliant trip.Since we arrived at London,u started asking one question,"Do u enjoy yourself?"Everytime we answered "Yes!"You will laught happily.It seems the only think you worried was our happiness,(also our safety)it's hard to find a teacher like u to plan everything for us,and just want us to enjoy.Although it's quite tired to walk a long time everyday,the trip still very happy.It's my first time to see a busker,London eye,and firework on Eiffel Tower.Moreover, it's my first time to carry a backpack and left HK.For me, everything is new and funny.Unlike other trip, you let us feel their culture and their lifestyle.It's very nice to walk around London with some friends and have our own lunch!=]I love it.Again, I want ot say thank you to my lovely,sweet teacher,John.=]
Hi Suki
I m not sure I understand what you mean by this sentence = .Although it was a bit clouded and a bit discrimination.
Do you mean it was crowded = also what do you mean by discrimination = can you explain more
I m using a Czech keyboard so its difficult to find the right keys for typing. I m glad you enjoyed the tour and glad you were lucky to get your camera = sillÿ girl o
Missing you John Sorry for the late comment,John=]
Unfortunately,i left my camera on the plane.
Finally,i called the Air NewZealand and he said the flight crew collected the camera for me,haha.
Compare to the study tour I have been before.
That's really different,i enjoy the way that we travelled by public transpots.Although it was a bit clouded and a bit discrimination.
Also, i have to apologize that we haven't look at the road.We are the oldest student in the trip ,but we are not a good model for the junior students.While you were angry of us,I was really afraid because you have never angry with me,even i haven't hand in your homework.However,we really understand that you were very care about our safety.
Honestly, i love all your plan and every activities.And all of us were really enjoy the trip.Actually, i don't really like france because of the attitude of french and hygiene.
I know many of us still have a time differences because we chat at last night about 3.00am=]
Fantastic Cities--- London and Paris John I have already back to Hong Kong and had a good sleep yesterday.In Chinese we have a word " Read ten thousands books, why not walk ten thousands roads" That is exactly right. Via this trip, we met different culture and visited such a lot of landmarks which I really long for watching like Effiel Towel,Big Ben...etc. Also it is quite meaningful that we travelled by the local public transpots, it is because we can deeply gain those experience and knowledges which we cannot learn from books. It is much better than stay in a coach only. Also, this trip has also intrigue me not only studying hard in English but also learning French.The most unforgettable thing is watching the muscial theatre and the towel was shining during the firework in Paris, it is very romantic. Anyway, I am really enjoy the time in London and Paris very much. Thank you for arranging such a wonderful trip. Merci Bongue!
Mickey John Mouse What happened to John? Did your wife twist your ears and make them bright red? I don't like the Europe Disney very much as I don'e understand French and the overall mood is quite gloomy to me. But you guys seem to enjoy your visit very much. Good.
How lucky you are! Wow, the aviation show is terrific. You guys are really lucky. You all should give a big thank to John, our golden travel agent. BTW, tell u something exciting. The GIA invite all of you to share your learning experience in London and Paris in one of their company's luncheons. Great news, isn't it?
Where are the boys? Did you lose them somewhere during the trip? I don't see many photos of them. I only see the girls, Gigi, Suki, Flora, Giga again, Kelly, sometimes Debbie, and then Gigi again... Where are our boys?
Wonderful look! John, I'm really amazed that you look much bettter in Mickey's costume! I'm sure all students will pay full attention to you during the lessons if you dress like that. Why don't you try it next school term?
Skip this if you don't feel like reading it! From: a long lost person!
Dear Mr. Croft,
I read about the students having trouble with their flight reservations with Oasis since they wound up. I was a bit concerned about the amount of people and the value they might have had to compensate. Looks like everything went well by reading from your blogs and I am very impressed by your dedication towards my old school for all these years. It's good to know you enjoy teaching here.
I love London too!! How lucky you guys are!! I like watching the musical Lion King very much. If you want to watch another one, why not choose the Phantom of the Opera? It's very good indeed.
5-1 haha 5 -1 again :-) Is that poor brainwashed boy an ar5ena1 fan?
5-1 anytime, anywhere you can. :-)
Was it the Lillywhite in Piccadilly circus?
And telephone booth! The end ever pic i took in london was by the telephone booth near British museum outside the hostel i stayed. I felt so dumb to open the door trying to get in... It was full of smell of urine....!
we are already doing a display board on the tour, to be finished before S1 registration in a few days' time.
So thank you for putting the photos on the blog!
BTW, How's Camden Market after the fire earlier this year?
