It's been more than three years since my last trip back home and thanks to Google, now I have a free opportunity to take a quick peek of my home without spending several thousand bucks on airplane tickets and lodging^^
It seems that my home changes its color every couple of years from white to ? to whatever color it's now... (actually the picture quality is good on the street but not that great to anything above the street level...)
The building we lived before we moved to our old home is still standing and looks dirty and crappy as usual.
Lots of things have changed but it's just good to see the old pharmacy, newspaper stand and the long stairway are still around in the neighborhood like it was yesterday.
Unfortunately, some great memories did disappear like the toy and stationary stores we often passed by in the old days.
And of course the Upper Ngau Tau Kok Estate, which I thought some parts of it were still in construction three years ago.
The outer appearance of the market and library, where I spent countless amount of time, still look like the same but I'm sure everything would be different inside.
... just don't know what happen to the slide... a small swing like that looks boring... (well, as I slowly "street view," I realized there are more auto repair stores than before... I guess auto repair store is the today's adult care home in the neighborhood.)
The MTR station.
Alma mater#1 was torn down with the Upper Ngau Tau Kok Estate a long time ago and I have been to the new location only once.
Alma mater#2 seems to have less changes than my home, which is a good thing to me...
The library near Alma mater#2, another library that I frequently visited.
Comments: I wish I could go back home this year because I have lots of unused vacation days but it just seems pointless to make this trip alone...
