the possibilities are so endless, I had thought, and yet, by what you noted, I add one more :0) in the meantime an interim report re Hong Kong Jack and I returned last Friday to some gathering crowd at the airport arrival lounge Message 32277199 the Mrs and the Coconut experienced cancelled flight Saturday due to typhoon between Shanghai and HK, and again on Sunday due to HK airport shutdown. They followed my advice and switched to high-speed rail and arrived home by midnight Sunday. The kids started school today (Wednesday), and as their activities are 99% on the Southside of freedom rock HK, so far so good, for many of the teachers live Southside / on campus. There is one road in from one part of town (north through a tunnel across mountain) and through the Southside looping back to a different / far part of town, i.e. not easily accessible in a tactical sense. Coconut's dance instructions 4 times a week happens Southside. There may be some issue w/r to the dance practice on Saturdays in town. Shall see. Jack had started school orientation on Monday. Took various assessment tests (language, swimming) as he is a transfer into 3rd grade, got his uniforms, met his homeroom teacher, and acclimatised to the school's setup, and signed up for extra curricular activities (this semester would be swimming and chess), and next semester would be kung fu and either chess or robotics. His present school is also Coconut's school (MS and HS), but located at a different campus (for primary school). The school is perhaps 20-30X larger in physical size and 10X in students. Iow, it is big, unfamiliar and possibly daunting for a transfer student. We shall see how the Jack mixes up and blends in, and adopt to a different (more disciplined) style than what he is used to, the Montessori do-whatever-however-play-play-play way. The school is typical of an American-style outfit. He did okay I guess on language assessment. He surprised me on the swim test - pulled through 20 minutes straight of lap swimming when he is usually a isn't-life-wonderful-play-in-the-water kid. I checked out his cafeteria and am wondering how he would do in the big school. Usually he makes friends easily, but so far tended to be in smaller groupings. His sister told him to not hang out w/ the wrong crowd, the populars, and stick w/ the nerds and geeks. We shall see what he does, as he would do what he wants to do. The coconut, on a different campus, shall carry on as before, now 10th grade, and take chemistry and am not sure what sort of math but shall get report this night.
