Day 14 School Day + Go Karts, zipline and Holy Cross High School

 Day 14 

28 July 2026

My alarm went off at 7:15 AM today, but I didn't actually get up until 7:50 AM. For breakfast, we had cereal; I ate Cheerios, which tasted very sweet. Later on, Gwen drove us to Lakeview Church for our lessons. We started with a game called "Murder Party." It required a lot of thinking, which made it fascinating! After the game, we read the novel The Miracle Worker and then learned how to write a review.

For lunch, we ate delicious sandwiches. Once we finished, Mr. Larson drove us to his high school, the Holy Cross High School. The building was huge with so many classrooms, but the theatre was definitely the most interesting part. I could not imagine that having a theatre at the school! That was so amazing! I also got squeezed into a locker, which was funny. Next, he took us to an adventure park for go-karts and zipline. I personally preferred the zipline because I was better at it, and the whole experience was incredibly fun. On our way out, we bought Slurpees, but they were a bit too sweet for my taste. Anyway, we enjoyed it a lot. 

We had small potatoes for dinner, and I finally tried Canadian chocolate milk—it was really good! Looking back on today, I feel so grateful to be here. I had so much fun in Canada. With only two days left, I am definitely going to cherish every moment.










We were like the monkeys!

 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 ...

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...
