Afternoon tea- Just Couple of Biscuits or a Few Scones?

Many times, when you say Afternoon tea, you mean Supper, Dinner. But if you have it in the afternoon like I do, then a little snack is delicious. But if you go to a remarkable hotel such as the Peninsula in Hong kong, you will be in a heaven of Teas.


I went yesterday, and even though you wait in a que, it is kind of worth the patience for the food is Excellent. Delicious Scones, Strawberry Jam and clotted cream is divine with mini cakes and finger sandwiches.They make you experience of High-tea worth while! Another place in Hk to have high tea is The Grand Hyatt, or just have a High tea at home with your friends!

Smoothies.... Refreshing Drinks

Have you Ever sat in a room on a scorching hot day and thought that the air conditioning wasn't enough? Well we all probably have and wanted something like a cold drink to keep our body energized.

Smoothies are delicious on a hot day so just follow these steps and make a quick but yummy smoothie!

You will need a blender- even the ones that are on the adverts like fruit factory - even that's ok. Chop the fruits you want and throw them in into the blender. The Blender manual will help you understand how to on the blender. Add a scoop of vanilla or whatever Ice cream you like and a little milk before blending. Then pour some into a cup and refrigerate for 20 mins or just drink it! Oh and remember to add sugar if you are a sugar fan!

If you have allergies to Dairy then why not squeeze some lemon or lime add some water and again sugar for sweet tooth people and you will have lemon water! It also tastes good refrigerated!

Back to Beijing!

Ever Been to a place that's NOT with your Mum and Dad when you were 9? Well I have! Its Beijing!

I went there for 5 days with my class for an Educational Visit but it was actually a vacation to us. All of us were with a partner in one hotel room, and we experienced Chinese food and Lifestyle!

On the first day we visited a local Chinese school and then went to the Birds nest. We were very tired on the 2nd day because we went to the Great wall of china. The Third day was taken up with the tourist attractions(Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square) and we went to see the hutongs- which are 9 metre wide alley ways that are a very important with the local Chinese. Some of them have been burnt down. Anyway, on the 4th day we went to see the Summer palace and spent time sketching and exploring. The 5 and very last day we went to see The Temple of Heaven.

I reccomend Beijing as a place to learn for KIDS.

If you ever go there or want to go there please comment so I can tell you all more. Thanks for Reading:)!

Bon Voyage to Europe!

This summer we went to London. You may think London is rainy though when you find what is behind the Fog is a lot of things to Explore.

Here are a list of things that you could do that I did. But mainly you must have the good weather support you. We were lucky that we got it but as always a bit of rain is good.

One of the good things to see is the museums. Last year we went to the British Museum which was full of artifacts showing varieties of things. The Natural History Museum was fantastic and you can imagine yourself in the time of Jurassic!

Paris was wonderful and artistic Museums were the ideal days out. Going to the Louvre was an treasure hunt to find the Mona Lisa among the crowds! The Eiffel Tower "Tour Eiffel" or "Champ De Mars" was good experience especially looking at the huge tower in awe.

In Birmigham we saw the excitement rising there! We went to Warwick castle, saw the Trebuchet and jousting in the evening. In the Afternoon we had seen what it would have have been like if Henry the Eighth was on the Throne. We also went to Cadbury World and had a rather chocolatey day there! Our lips were red! We had also been Strawberry picking and made Jam and Strawberry ice cream out of the organic Strawberrys. But the Biggest hit was the Roald Dahl Museum-It was like you went in the world of Roald Dahl!

We had a Day trip to Longleat's Safari Park and in the Evening , ended up at Bath having a tour of the old Roman Baths and then having Dinner.

Now I hope you can enjoy these things when you go there!

Lets Care!

Some people just waste things and don't know there wasting .This could be simple things like:

Washing you dishes with a lot of water,

Turning on the shower for too long and not using it

and Leaving the television on when nobodys watching it.

Simple things can cause to bigger things and the bigger things may cause to problems.A lot of things happen in the background such as cutting down trees the size of football pitches litrally every second or keeping on the televion/computor for so long even though it takes up a lot of electricity. Some times you may have heard this saying that says ' Think before you react'. I my self am concerened about these things and want other people to know that too.

I may be sounding serious so you may want somebody to tell you a joke.

Just to let you know my name is Priya and I am eight.
