Over breakfast...
With two workshops to attend today, kids are having their breakfast early.
As soon as Ms. Nena started reviewing the yesterday's performance at the Winter Band Festival 2015 , the kids started gathering around and listened in. Such shared passion for music unifies them into one.

After lunch, the band went to the HKIS for their exchange program
Thank you,HKIS!
Back from 2 work shops for the day..
With the kids back from their workshop by 6 pm, we still have a few good hours to spend before my wife arrives late night (she's flying after work from Manila just to watch the band play). I was looking for a nearby place where we can walk around before we call the day. Kids are anticipating news from the WBF 2015 awards night so best we take the worries and walk it off.
Luckily, I caught up with a co-band parent who already went and shared there's a spot in Mongkok that can meet every shoe shoppers find. And it did not disappoint. While other shops stack their shoes side ways in rows to fill the wall, this shop stacked them facing would be buyers.

You see, I saw how these junior and senior boys are --- SUPER busy assisting in both the band logistics and various errands during the week long full day preparation during APEC week, they deserve a quick respite as I knew they are all praying for the best results asked of the group. Hosting them for a few hours to show our appreciation for their tireless effort in looking after the younger band kids (food orders, other runs o there are lots).
So we "adopted" kids for the evening and cabbed to Mongkok, head count every other stop and skipped snack stops entirely to bring the kids back to rest up as committed. On our way back to get a taxi, I SMSed Garry to check and the results are in ---- its GOLD! and the group with me are all so happy hearing the news!
On behalf of all the band parents, thank you boys for caring for your younger band members! Hopefully next time we can grow the group we can take to yet another adventure.
Yet another night well spent.
