Can't believe that two days have gone already!
Started the day with toast. No noodles for breakfast today!
There was much more discussion that followed on the theme of the Millennium Development Goals. There were speeches about people's views and experience of Education, Employment and Climate Change and as an Area group (Europe) we discussed what were the top priorities for us. This sparked lots of debate and was good to have a chance to view our opinions.
At lunch, some of the English delegation discussed that maybe it would have been better to be discussing Challenge 21 and then see how this feeds into the Millennium Development Goals, rather than the other way round? See how "our" aims can help the UN aims / goals.
We also managed to get a swim in before heading off to the City for the concert in Victoria Park. then dinner in City. WOW!!! it was amazing the sights really are something special, shops on top of shops on top of shops. Escalators going up streets. hundreds of people in such a small area. Some of the English and some of the Finnish managed to find a very local small resteraunt down a little backstreet and it was unbelievable. Real Hong Kong!
So good to see Challenge 21 alive and well and being discussed like this...
ReplyDeleteAmy, as jealous as I am and mixed between wanting to read and wanting to look away so as not to become more envious and more uspet with my London view ... It sounds brilliant and "oh do tell!" ... I can't imagine how inspirational it all must be out there!! Keep doing your thing, for us stuck at home!
