New friends 新朋友

APe decided to go to the office to work today,

今日芬蘭猴話要番公司番工，

As if we arrive at Turku late at night tonight,

因為如果太夜到米高屋企嘅話，

His niece and nephew will not be willing to go to bed.

個姪仔同姪女就會唔瞓覺𠺢啦！

Therefore, I have a lot of time this morning,

所以我今日上奏食完早餐，

To type this blog entry.

就有時間打Blog啦:）

I had coffee with Annie in the city centre (Keskusta) at 2 yesterday.

噙日兩點鐘約咗安妮飲咖啡。

My first metro trip by myself in Finland.

我第一次自己坐芬蘭地鐵。

As I know not any station's name,

因為唔識D字，

I was a little nervous.

所以有D爻底。

As everyone knows, it is a must to buy a ticket before taking a train.

入地鐵站要買飛係常識。

However, to someone who is so used to using her Octopus card,

但對於用開八達通嘅我，

and her last experience of buying a train ticket

對上次係係地鐵買飛，

was like 3-4 years ago when she was in Paris,

已經係喺三四年前去巴黎時嘅事啦！

It was again, an usual experience.

原來芬蘭地鐵票價，

And for Finnish ticket price,

係唔理你去邊，

It's 2.7 Euro all-you-can-ride-round-the-city-trip within one hour.

總知係市內一個鐘就承惠2.7歐羅。

Quite expensive...

貴到呢！

I successfully arrived at the central railway station.

成功去到中央地鐵站，

And it just took me 5 minutes to reach Cafe Esplanad.

5分鐘內到達Cafe Esplanad。

A cold and tasteless Chicken panini and cappuccino cause 12 Euro.

使咗成12歐食咗個冷而無味嘅雞胸三文治，

However, it's ok.

同一個無乜咖啡味嘅cappuccino。

Cause I was there to meet a friend,

但嘢食唔係重點，

And I had a good time.

相聚先係。

Annie, I wish you every success with your business!

安妮，在此預祝妳公司業務蒸蒸日上！

After that,

跟著，

I walked to APe's company.

我自己行去芬蘭猴公司！

And took some photos of the nice view of the city.

沿著風景優美！

After a 45 minutes walk to his office,
行咗45分鐘終於到咗。

We started our grocery shopping at IKEA and Hong Kong!

咁就開始咗我哋4小時宜家的生活啦！

Yes!

首先，
I went to Hong Kong to buy fishing lure!

我哋番香港買釣魚用品呀！

Instead of buying lure, we got 3 pots of ivy!
點知買咗常春藤三盆。:）

Then we spent 120 Euro at IKEA for kitchenware and flowers!

跟著去咗宜家買咗成120歐爐具同花！

Now, our plants at home get 5 more new friends :):)

我哋屋企兩棵植物依家有多5個新朋友呀！

My dad loves Gardenia!

我爸爸最喜歡嘅白蟬呀！

What do you think?
靚嘛？:）

As you can see,

但係你睇下D牛油果！

The avocados look a little dead.

好係無乜氣息呀！

Why?

點解呢？

Why?

點解呢？

APe and I were both quite worried about our plants.

芬蘭猴噙同我好緊張，

We immediately looked up some information on the Internet about gardening.

番到屋企即刻上網搵資料點種D花！

As both of us are famous serial killers of plants!

因為我兩係連Cereal都整得死嘅連環殺手（serial killers)！

I will try to help the ivy to change pot.

今日我會嘗試幫常春藤轉盆，

Anxious!

緊張！

Haha!

哈！

Oh yes,

係嘞！

We also bought a Chinese steamer!

我哋重買咗中式蒸盆！

We can finally steam fish!

可以蒸魚啦

I have been here for 15 days only.

我嚟咗15日，

But I am already homesick!

超掛住香港D嘢食同阿爸阿媽嘅蒸鯇魚，黃花，烏頭，馬友！

Missing the HK food such as my dad and mum's steamed fish, 

重有辛辣麵，出前一丁等等！

Korea hot and spicy noodles, Japanese Nissan noodles and,

呀，

Mooncake and Pu er tea!

月餅同普洱！

Therefore,

所以，

I sent a message to Kat to ask her to bring me these food items when she comes in October!

即刻請阿Kat幫我10月帶過嚟！

Many thanks in advance, Kat!!!!! :):)

先謝謝你！

APe thinks that this IKEA box we had in HK was very useful.

芬蘭猴覺得我哋之前香港屋企有個盒非常好用，

So, even it was 22 Euro, he bought it without batting an eye!
所以22歐都買！

We will decorate it later.
我哋之後會裝飾佢。

Below is Thai instant noodles we got from Thailand.

下面係之前係批發到買嘅泰國公仔麵。

We will bike to the other side of the city tonight.

今晚我哋會踩車去城另一邊。

Looking forward to it!

期待！
