Yesterday and the day before we had a outdoor race adventure on Ching Chow island. Ching Chow is a pretty small island with tons of small chinese shops and trails going all aound the island. I was stationed at a cave. The teams challenge when they got to me was to go through the cave. You had to climb down into the ground to get into the cave then it was about 25 meters long but very narrow and very dark. It was really cool. I believe that pirates used to live in the cave.
I also ate some dimsum on Ching Chow island. Dimsum is just this chinese food stuff and there are lots of different kinds. It is meats and vegies wraped in a thin wrap thing and cut into bite sized pieces. I have no idea what was in mine, I used to try and ask what stuff was, but I found it easier to just not know and eat it. It was pretty good though. I also had this other thing, it was white and fluffy and was really sweet, almost like a shortcake, but then in the middle was this thicker sweet sauce with bits of meat. It was delicious.
I bought 2 cute tops and a pair of surf shorts in Ching chow for oh about $15US, and I got paid today so I am going to do some more shopping tonight! (Emma, I am going to a part of Hong Kong where they sell a lot of electronics so I'm going to look for an ipod for you!).
The surf company Quicksilver sponsors the surf camp that Treasure Island has each summer, so they took our sizes and we are going to get hooked up with quicksilver gear. We are going to get surf shorts, t-shirt, surf shirt, had and sunglasses. We also got a 20% discount card for any other quicksilver gear. So thats really sweet!
