I almost forgot to add this picture: Giant worms!!! Everyone was raving about these worms that they found in the vicinity of the Three Gorges Dam.
oh my god... It is our dear Miss Lee and Miss Mok... Typing our daily reflections into the computer so that it can be uploaded to this blog. Poor things.. please go and get some beauty sleep quickly, teachers... 
Eww... Who are these two people? Sitting down in front of the computers typing in this dimly lit room...
Wo ho ho... Wo ho ho... Everybody wants Kungfu Fighting... (See the Wushu Masters in action... Jian Kuo and Desmond using their eye powers instead) 
The "Mother Hens" and their "chicks"... We had to split to smaller groups as we moved around the three stations to view the Three Gorges Dam.

The ship locks...
“白日依山尽,黄河入海流。欲穷千里目,更上一层楼” our dear students emulating the famous Tang Poet Wang Zhi Huan.... one has to climb to greater heights if one wishes to see the scenery far away.
Can't decide which is more captivating... The release of flood waters from sluice gates or Myself?? :D Muhahaha...
This is an image of a ship lock.. Every ship has to cross 5 of these ship locks in order to cross the Yang Tze River.

We finally reached the Three Gorges Dam at 3pm! This place is so cool! Can you see the shiplocks and powerlines behind us?
We bought our tickets to view the Three Gorges Dam... p.s Guess whose fingers are these? (you have 50% chance :D haha) For answers, look through all the pictures or you may ask any of our students...
The cutest boy that you can ever find (Shang Sheng)... with his favourite food (Long Bean!!) Ummm....Setting off to the Three Gorges Dam! Yeah! Beginning our 4 hour trip...
This is the day that teachers have been waiting for. We will be going to the Three Gorges Dam to witness the magnificent project. After close to 5 hours of travelling, we finally see the shiplocks and the dam that was shown in Ms Agnes Mok's powerpoint presentation during the training session back in Singapore. It was very heartening to hear students' cries of amazement and astonishment about the scale of the project. It shows that students have retained the knowledge that was taught and they have tried to apply it by matching what they have seen to what was taught.

In addition, it also made our day when the tour guide asked if the students were briefed about Wuhan prior to the arrival here :) she said that our students managed to answer the questions about Wuhan and the Three Gorges Dam. (ALL FOUR TEACHERS GRINNED FROM EAR TO EAR.... MUHAHAHAHAHA)
