Day 15 in Wuhan

In the afternoon, we headed to the Mandarin Orange Farm. It was definitely a eye opener experience as it was my very first time going to a fruit farm. The oranges here were unique. Usually in Singapore, the oranges are in orange colour, however over here, the orange are in GREEN! Yes, green just like the colour of lime. The farm was so huge, and we were entitled to "FREEFLOW" of oranges. As we walked around the farm, we chose the oranges from the tree and plucked. We then peel the oranges to eat. Some were as sweet as sugar, while some were as sour as lime. We need to be skillful to pluck the sweeter oranges. The local students also set small fire and start to cook some sweet potatoes that were found around the farm. Had the "kampong" feel....

After which, we went back to the campus and rest before we had our BBQ Dinner. The BBQ took place at a campsite beside the school, and it was literally the "old school" style whereby we have to start the fire with just natural resources. We had to gather dried leaves and branches to start the fire. It was fun indeed.

While the sky was dark, we lighten the area by blasting music using the portable speaker, not forgetting ICT division putting up their fireworks and the firecrackers. It was just fun! However due to food constraint, we then headed out for decent dinner before we headed back to our hostel to rest.

Another day i enjoyed.

Reflection- The campsite facilities were very "old school" and it just reminds me of HongKong drama. I always thought that to start a fire, starter is essential. What if one day, im lost in a jungle and i would have to start a fire to keep myself warm without any lighter, matchsticks or starter? I shall start picking up these life skills!
