Leaving Canada

Headed Home from Vancouver International Airport

I still remember four days before, when we arrived to Vancouver, Mimi asked us a question "Did I want to go home"? My answer was probably YES. This was because I really missed home, I missed my friends, I missed my bed, I missed everything in Hong Kong! On that moment I only wanted to go home. 😐😐😐😐😐😐

Four days later, I knew that it was time to go home, but I couldn’t bear to leave Canada. I think that 5055 Cordova Bay is my second home. It is such a fun home. It had the Pacific Ocean in front of it to enjoy and play in, and almost every night, we played and sang on the ground floor.

Our big family made up of Mimi, Eric, Steven, Daisy, Takky, Linda, Emily, Summer, Billy, me, gathered here daily and had such fun with each other and all those who came and visited and played with us.  We left, because we had no choice but to leave. It was the end of our time at 5055 Cordova Bay. We had to leave the most beautiful place that I have ever been. It reminds me of the song "Let Her Go", but I will never let her go. All the memories of this journey and all it has taught me, and how it has changed me will always be mine.

But now I am home in Hong Kong, and I am missing Canada!!!😕😕😕😕😕😕I am missing my second home, family, and friends. Every day these, Let Her Go lyrics play in mind:

Well you only need the light when it's burning low.
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow.
Only know you love her when you let her go.
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low.
Only hate the road when you're missing home.
Only know you love her when you let her go.
And you let her go.
Staring at the bottom of your glass,
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last.
But dreams come slow and they go so fast.
You see her when you close your eyes.
Maybe one day you'll understand why.
Everything you touch surely dies.
'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when ......

I know even if I go to Canada again, the feeling might not be same, but I will not forget anything that I experienced with my second family and friends in Canada!!!🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂 What a fabulous journey! It changed me, and doing so, changed my life.
