My New Microscope

Hello everyone,

Today I would like to tell you about my new Microscope (which some of you already know about), and I also downloaded some pictures of stuff I see in it.
So, you probably are thinking "how can you take a photo of something in the Microscope" it is very weirdly easy, you just put the lens of the camera in the lens of the Microscope and take a picture, and it's done.

Now I will show you the pictures...



What we have here some pollen from Yeye's flowers (600x). 
  





Next we have some salt crystals (100x).





And here is some mei hua (blossom) (100x)


 
Also there are some leaves here so we got a dead one because it looked more see through (600x). 

This is the same leaf but on 100x.



.
This is the Microscope I got for Christmas, it magnifies 100x, 600x and 1200x.

2012 and 2013.







Hello everybody,

I'm sorry for missing some posting but I've got lots to tell you about Hong Kong!!!
The best bit as I have told some of you about was Ocean Park!! (Dawei and his friend Jason Chang didn't like some of the rides!)
Here are some pictures of Ocean Park and the first is on the Rapids (its hilarious)



There was water spraying at us and we have to go down a water fall! 



I got a really BIG piece of candy floss!

We went to the aquarium, and we saw thousands of fish including hammerhead sharks.
We also saw Spider Crabs - the biggest crustacean in the world.

Dawei's favourite creature was this octopus sitting on a brain coral

We spotted this Lion Fish sneaking around this tank. It is a venomous fish - with poisoness spines

There was loads of rays - including Sting Rays and beautiful Spotted Eagle Rays (at the back).

These are White Tipped Reef Sharks - resting on the bottom of their tank. I saw these in Malaysia when I was snorkelling. They were very scary!

This huge tanks was full of White Fish gathering to eat - so they were is a big shoal, this meant I would take a good picture.

These jellyfish looked like they could change colour - but it was done with lights in the tank. Very beautiful. I could see inside their bodies.

Here's another Hammerhead - their shadows were really spooky.

I'm now going to tell you more about Hong Kong.







I don't know why old people still like KISSING!!!!
I thought only boyfriends and girlfriends do that. Weird...

I'm now on the Star Ferry to Hong Kong Island. 

Hong Kong is known for it's food - I ate lots - including a small bite of pigeon head.

Hong Kong in the night - this time, PHEW they're not Kissing!


Jason and Dawei on a Hong Kong tram - chatting about boring old cameras. Hong Kong trams are very old, the insides are wooden. They started in 1881 when Britain was in charge in Hong Kong. They are run by electricity which means they are very good environmentally.
