颱風

韋森特走後,街道滿目蒼痍。屋苑內外皆有倒樹。碰到屋苑的園丁,冒著不小的雨周圍巡視。「你沒有傘,我遮你,好嗎?」我問。他笑說:「不用,我們淋慣的。」說完便走去拾樹枝。真要多謝在颱風時和颱風後為香港服務的人。(還有,男士們請勿有樣學樣,決定下雨不撐傘時,要顧及自己的年紀和身體狀況。)

Reading

I love to read with my children.  To me reading is simply enjoyable.  The world is so enormous, reading is the easiest and cheapest way to travel around it.


Had borrowed a book about Estonia, I found it at the children section of the public library.  I was planning to read it with kids, but I couldn't wait and finished a whole book a night.


Estonia was independent only since the 90s, it is a captivating country, with history intertwined strongly with Russia yet still preserves its own culture.  A beautiful place with a large portion of natural landscape.  I wish I can go there some days.


And that little book will be the kids' bed time reading in the coming nights.
