21、Dear Jackie,
Hello from Hong Kong! My class tour of China is almost over. Hong Kong is our last stop. We arrived here on Friday night, and I’m having a lot of fun.
On Saturday, we visited the top of Victoria Peak. The view from the top was incredible! I could see all of Hong Kong. There were also some nature trails(观景小路) on the peak. We went for a short walk and then had lunch in the afternoon.
In the evening, I went with two friends to the Temple Street Night Market. The streets were full of people selling food, clothes, watches, bags, electronics(电器), and lots of other things. I bought some souvenirs to bring home. It was really a great day!
Yesterday, our group went to Disneyland (yes, there’s one here)! The park was crowded, and the lines for rides were long. I waited an hour to go on Space Mountain. That was my favourite!
