I am so unobservant sometimes I hardly deserve to be in Hong Kong. I was catching the taxi from school with Chris yesterday afternoon when I noticed the most gorgeous tree, right outside the school! 
I've never taken any notice of it, but it is a beautiful flame tree. I have no idea when it started turning from green to red. I wanted to take a nice photo but the taxi driver was impatient so I snapped quickly and then was disappointed with the photo.
Anyway I was up in my new library today with the builders (see exciting note below), standing where my office will be. And what an amazing view of the flame tree - sitting just under my window like an beautiful red mattress. Again, tried to get a good shot, but I guess it's just one of those things that my camera will not do any justice.

Here's a google image that shows a flame tree better than my photos.
Anyway, the exciting news of the day is that we have had the handover to the builders. They start moving their gear into the new library tomorrow, ready to start work on it. At this stage it should be finished by mid-August, and I will start setting it up when I get back from summer holidays.
(PS the dots in the middle are because I am absolute rubbish at editing blogger and I can't stop it from doing crazy layout stuff unless I add some full stops here and there)
