Have a nice one-day trip


I met Olive, Nydia, and her husband yesterday. On Saturday early morning, Olive and I took a train to Nydia's city. Nydia's couple waited for us at the train station. The weather is so nice and we took many pictures. You may see in the following link.

In the morning, we went to 北埔, which is a small city and full of antique things such as old temples and old houses. We saw many tour groups and their tour guide was introducing the building history to them.

At noon, Nydia's couple brought us to a beautiful place to enjoy lunch. The place name is called "Lavender Gardern" which is on a top of mountain. The place is full of many kinds of flowers just like its name. The place was decorated well so that we felt enjoyable with our lunch.

In the afternoon, we drove to another old and small city which is called 內灣. It is a very popular place to visit, not only for it's food but also it has many antique history to memory. There are so many delicious food. If I were not full then, I would had eaten some of them. However, we were all full because of lunch and couldn't eat anymore. Saturday was so hot so there was a big rain in the late afternoon. The rain forced us to finish the journey.

I heard a surprising news from Olive today.

Trend College has shut down a few days ago.

I can't believe it. My school which gave me so many nice memories disappeared. No ELS and domestic students anymore. The students have to find another school and the teachers lost their job. The reason is they have less and less students because students don't like their new teaching system. How come.... My school....

We joked with Nydia that the place you used to stay always shut down like your previous company.
Nydia and her husband were at the same company before. After they quit the job, no longer their company shut down. Now trend college got the same destiny. Nydia's influence is too strong.

There are so many ELS schools in Kelowna which is a city with
information flowing completely and quickly. The schools must give the international students what they want, otherwise they lose students quickly. I think the ELS schooling is a pretty competetive market in Kelowna. We have foreseen Trend College's fate when it lost good teachers like Joyce, Teesha and Mini.
