Today, we had a lesson and we went to a zoo
in Saskatoon. We wrote our journal during our first writing lesson. We spent a
lot of time to finish it. We wrote the entry ourselves.
In the afternoon, we ate sandwiches, some
vegetables and my favorite food chocolate cookies! The cookies are prepared by
Gwen. Gwen, the host’s child, cares a lot about us. I feel very lucky to have
Gwen in our host family.
After the lesson, we went to the Forestry
Park and Zoo in Saskatoon. I was excited that I had a chance to go to a zoo
here. Also, I did not believe that I could go there today. This is one of my
dream places that I longed for. I saw many animals inside the zoo. I could see
some rare animals which live only in Saskatoon such as fox, black bear, peacock
and gopher. These are wild animals living in the forest. I felt that it is
amazing to have these animals in our world. I fed the deers and they were very
beautiful.
When I arrived home, I knew that Gwen’s leg
got hurt because of my bed. I felt blue and sorry. After dinner, we helped Gwen
to wish the dishes. Then, we went to the supermarket. I found it totally
different from Hong Kong. The supermarket is extremely big and spacious. We can
find all our daily necessity there.
Also, we ate ice cream after we went to the
supermarket. The host dad drove us to the nearby food store. We ordered some
food without getting off the car. I think it is convenient for Canadians to buy
food while driving their cars. I ordered strawberries milkshake. It was really delicious.
This milkshake was fresh and creamy which was different from Hong Kong.
