Day 13 School Day+ Glow bowling + Berries baseball game

Day 13

27/7/2026

This morning, we had instant noodles for breakfast.

During the lesson, we started by briefly sharing what we did over the weekend. Then we read Scenes 9 and 10 of Act Two of The Miracle Worker, and we continued working on our group writing project.

After lunch, Mr. David told us that the art museum we had originally planned to visit was closed today and tomorrow for some reason, so we changed our plan and went glow bowling instead. When we got to the alley and started playing, we realized that bowling isn’t as easy as it looks—the balls are really heavy! But luckily, we hit several strikes later on. We were so happy.

















In the evening, we went to watch a baseball game at Gordie Howe sports complex. This time it was the Saskatoon Berries versus the Medicine Hat Mavericks. Unfortunately, the Berries lost with a final score of 6 to 2. However, we still had a great time learning about the rules and watching the players strike the balls.

On our way back home, we saw the full moon—it looked especially beautiful. After we got home, we took showers and went straight to bed.

Day 1- Hong Kong ==> Vancouver International Airport (YVR)==> Saskatoon

Day 1 15/7/2026 Hong Kong==> Vancouver International Airport (YVR)==> Saskatoon Today was our travel day. We first flew from Hong Kong to Vancouver, a 12-hour flight.  The flight wasn’t bumpy, and we managed to take a few naps and watch some movies, such as F1 and Breaking Bad . It was our first long-haul flight, but luckily it wasn’t too hard for us.  Because of a flight delay in Hong Kong, we missed our connecting flight to Saskatoon, so we spent another five hours at the airport before finally arriving in Saskatoon after a two-hour flight.  While waiting for our connecting flight, we even watched the World Cup semi-final between England and Argentina. It was an exciting match. If it weren’t for the delay, we might not have had the chance to watch this breathtaking game. Later, we met our host family, Ms. Linh, who warmly prepared us Vietnamese noodle for dinner and kindly suggested that we go to bed early so we would be energetic tomorrow. This is the end of our...

Day 3 17/7/2026 Today was Day 3 of being in Saskatoon. We woke up early and had cereal for breakfast. I also got to try churro-flavoured Pop-Tarts. After breakfast, we packed our lunch and headed to Lakeview Church for another English lesson. We watched part of a play about The Miracle Worker . After that, we wrote a paragraph about describing our favourite place using descriptive writing. Then we had lunch. For lunch, I had a sandwich, a small croissant, an orange, and a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. After lunch, we went to a park to play National flag football. Mr. David’s sons even came to play with us. They were great coaches, and we learned how to play defense and goal during a match.    After the game, we stopped by a souvenir shop called SaskMade for some locally produced products for souvenirs.  Next came dinner, which was, yes, a delicious pizza! Then came the most anticipated evening activity: the Summer Barn Dance! We were so excited just thinking about it. On ou...

 Day 15 30/7/2026 We ate cereal for breakfast and headed to Lakeview Church for our final English lesson. We finished The Miracle Worker and then played some mini-games like charades. We even got worm candies as reward! For lunch, I ate lasagna. After that, we went to Mr. David’s house. We played backyard games such as Washer Toss and KanJam. Next, we started our award ceremony in the living room. We watched everyone’s video presentation, and each person received a certificate for joining the English Study Program. Three of us—including me—also received an additional certificate. I was very shocked when I won the “Awesome Attitude Award.” Camilia also received the Best Effort Award , and Dora received the Best Speaking Efficiency Award , respectively. When we got home, we ate supper: mac and cheese and poutine. After supper, at 6:30 PM, we drove to the SaskTel Centre to watch a professional basketball game. The teams were called Saskatoon Mamba and Niagara River Lions. In the ...
