Back to Ariel's Home Page
Hello there. I enjoyed your page although I only get to see it in a text format. I especially liked the bit about Pingu. He is my favorite penguin too. Is Pingu popular where you live? He is known here a bit, but not famous. I like all of the Pingu episodes that I have seen, especially the ones where Pingu is misbehaving.
I'm 3 years old too (mommy is helping me write this) I like your page very much, especially the Thomas page. I have a link to your Thomas page on my home page.... My page doesn't have as much as yours does, but you can see my picture and links to my favorite places on the net. (Mommy says that your page has inspired her to do more with mine.)
Thank you for putting the pictures of Thomas on the Web. I am 5 years old and have all the Thomas trains that are available in die cast. I am currently looking for Duke, Peter Sam, Sir Handel, and Scarloy and his twin. Thanks again.
I received your latest message. Thanks. Just to let you know the email arrived loud and clear. Mom is busy these days so she said we'll write you more later. Bye for now.
Hi! I love Disney movies too! I'm 17 and they are still my favorite.... I like your page.... My all time favorite movie is Sleeping Beauty. I hope it comes to video soon! They need to re-release it!
Congratulations for being the first visitor to find the bug! I'll mention this in my drawings page and will also put a link to your home page. I visited your home page already and was delighted that you like Ariel the Mermaid too. I love the big zoom in effect and the nice drawings of you by your Mummy. I also play on Daddy's computer as you do. My Dad's computer is also a Macintosh.
Hi Kaitong, There's been some trouble with the email lately, so if you sent any to "rosso@sceast.cn.ca" they might not get here. Send your letters to "rosso@cn.ca". I went to Upper Canada Village. It's a place where you go and have fun. It's like a fun park. No one in your country knows what it is. My Dad's writing this now. It's in Ontario, and we live in Quebec. We had to drive for a long time to get there. It is a town where you venture around and see how things were a long time ago. All the buildings are real old buildings from pioneer times that were moved to the park. My favourite thing was milking a cow! The people were dressed like they were a long time ago, in the time of pioneers. It's fun, fun, fun there. Some kids stay there all day and night for a week. It's like they're living in the past. (Meghan is writing the next few lines all by herself. Dad's transcription follows:) i went to the boatacal gardins it was fun evryone was there its in downtown we took my grandmother with us we went on a tuor for a hole hower and a haf there was a fun insetareim and butrfliy tent and live bees gouing in and out of the hive. I went to la ronde. its a fun park. i went on a inside rolercoster called the dragon and the ufo. [ I went to the Botanical gardens. It was fun. Everyone was there. It's in downtown. We took my grandmother with us. We went on a tour for a whole hour and a half. There was a fun insectarium and butterfly tent and live bees going in and out of the hive. I went to La Ronde. It's a fun park. I went on an inside rollercoaster called the dragon and on the UFO. ] (Now Dad's writing my words again) The UFO is a ride where all the people sit in seats on a wall on the edge of a wheel. The wheel turns around and when it turns, the seats slide up and down. My sister only went on the little kids' rides. I had the flu. Everyone in my house had it expect my dad and my baby sister. I got it after my sister and my mom. I took swimming lessons again this year. I was in the yellow group and I finished it. Then I went to the orange group and I finished it this summer. I finished red, too! I love swimming lessons, and I think it's almost the best thing. Last year I finished kindergarten. Now I'm in grade 1. I do all sorts of things; so much I can't even tell you all of them. I'll tell you a few, though. We do arts and crafts, earn stickers when we get enough "jetons" (tokens). We get "jetons" whenever we do a good thing. I like my teacher. Her name is Annick. I have some friends that were in my kindergarten class. I can tell you their names. Their names are Trevor, Vannessa, Lisa, Thomas, Kendra, and my new friends are Matthew, Michael, Jade, Andrea, Natisha, Natalie, Julianna and Julie. Did you start school yet? Do you have a nice teacher? What's your teacher's name? Please write back soon, even if it's just to let me know you got my letter. I'll write a short note right away as soon as I get your answer, so we know the mail is getting through again. Your Canadian friend, Meghan Kim Overbury
We found the bug!!! -- Astrid Martland http://user.itl.net/~martland/astrid martland@itl.net (Astrid)
Hi Ariel! I really liked your homepage. I put a link to your page in mine. Thanks!
I love all the Disney movies especailly The Little Mermaid. I love watching t.v. How do you draw so well? I live in southarm in Tassie. Long live Walt Disney!!!
I thought Pocahontas was a nice Disney movie. Chris says, "Pocahontas, What a babe!"
... Yours is the first message I've received from the continent of Africa. I have a map to record where messages and visitors have come from (at the very bottom of my Message Book page where it says Visitors' Trivia) - a way to learn my geography I suppose. Can you suggest some interesting home pages in Natal or elsewhere in S Africa for me to visit? P.S. Do you know S Africa has lately become a hot vacation destination for Hong Kong people?
Thanks for wanting to link to my page! It's not quite ready yet so...until further notice. No I'm not from Kingston, I'm from Alexandria, St. Ann. ... Sorry to jet on my first email message but it's getting kinda long already. Do you mind long email messages? Sorry if this shatters your standards!! Keep up the good work and if you have any web insights you'd like to share you got my email address! Don't be bashful!! Take care!!! Your Jamaican RPI Connection, -- Kairy E.J. Walker "SHINE wherever you are!" Don't miss The WAVEfront today!
Thanks, Kairy, for linking to my home page from yours. I'd like to link to your home page from mine too. Are you as you say from Jamaica? I'd like to introduce my friends with their home towns. Is yours Kingston, Jamaica? (Of course I know the song Jamaica Farewell, though I doubt it's really a Jamaican song originally - I'm learning it and one day I'll have it in my Repertoire page!) ...
Dear Ariel: Thank you for your home page. "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" is my favorite book too. Have you read the new one, "The very lonely firefly?" I am almost 4 years old, and I live in Annapolis, MD, USA. My daddy visited Hong Kong last year. He says he liked it a lot. Bye! Adam :}
This is wonderful. I live in South Africa and I think that Pocahontas was a really nice movie. I am 11 years old and go to a school called St Catherines. I have 3 dogs and I have one sister, her name is Nicolla.
I think this was... interesting and the pictures were very colourful.
My wife and I are both big fans of Doraemon and Totoro. I've included a link to your totoro page in my WWW Totoro-site. Please visit when you have a chance....
Where can I get a poster of Thomas the Tank Engine?
Very nice page, did you do it by yourself? Thanks for visiting another Ariel on the net!
Keep Thomas coming with more Anne & Claribel, Sir Topham Hat too!!
Tim (who will be 2 years old in October) *loved* your photos of Thomas & Co. Thanks!
Hey Ariel, just me again! The URL for my home page is in my signature, later. -- Kairy E.J. Walker "SHINE wherever you are!" Don't miss The WAVEfront today! (http://www.rpi.edu/~walkek2/wavefront.html)
Hey Ariel!!, Just a junior at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute stopping in. Great home page!! Check mine out...it's not as rad as yours, but hey, I'm a beginner. I've taken the liberty of adding you to my FunPOOLs section, hope ya don't mind! Well, take care, God bless, check ya later!!!
I like Meeko very much. I laugh a lot when Meeko was stealing the cookies [from] John Smith.
Today, I have seen Pocahontas miovie. So I search Web with the key word Pocahontas, and I find you! I will go to Hongkong, then I want to do the shopping.
I haven't seen the movie [Pocahontas] yet but I know the story and I think it's great and the animation looks spectacular! Bye! That's all I have to say! Write Soon!
I liked Pocahontas also. I also liked your Thomas the Tank Engine pictures. I am 4 years old.
Hallo, I liked your home page. I love Pocahontas and it will be very nice of you if you send me some more pictures of her, because here I can't find any. I'm 10 years old, and I will be in the 4th grade now. Thanks, hope to hear from you soon.
I have a cousin who is Three! I hope we can be Internet friends and I like you!
Thank you for the Thomas pictures - yours was the first web page I've ever visited! I'm two and a half and I love Thomas and his friends.
I really enjoyed the movie [Pocahontas.] I thought that it was maybe a bit more truthful because there aren't always happy endings in the realm of the heart.
Hi, Kaitong! Would you like to be my new friend? I found your name on KidsCom. I'm 6 1/2 years old. My name is Meghan Kim Overbury. I'm a girl. I have 3 keypals already, but I'm planning on having a hundred! I have a sister and her name is Shauna and I also have a baby sister. I think they're cute. I like them. I never heard the name Kaitong before! Did you ever hear the name Meghan before? My sister named Shauna is 4 years old and the baby is 6 months old. I live in Montreal, Canada. There's lots of people from Hong Kong living in Canada. My uncle was married to someone from Hong Kong. Her name is Sin Wan Fong. My dad's helping me with this letter, but I can read and write very well. I'm starting grade 1 in the fall. I was in Kindergarten last year. I'm in French Immersion. That means most of our lessons are in French. My sister goes to pre-school and they do most things in English. I have all sorts of friends in school, and I'm probably going to meet new ones! I like it in school. It's fun. I think it's the best thing to do, except when it gets boring, like when you're in grade 4 and it gets really hard. Kaitong, do you have a sister or a brother? I don't have any brothers, only sisters. Two sisters and me -- that's all the kids in my house. I'm going to write by myself now ... i have a wold globe. it shows me were you live. its far away from were we live. you live in hong kong and i live in qubec. we live far away from you. dads playing yore the cutst litele baby i now my sister is partinding to be a baby hes singing over and over agen. bie for now . A note from Meghan's dad: I'll translate the above paragraph if you have problems intrepreting Meghan's intuitive spelling. I added only punctuation. She really does love to write! The rest of the letter is in Meghan's words; she dictates and I write what she says. Meghan enjoys writing her keypals and would be glad to have Kaitong join the fun. Please write back if you're interested. -- Meghan Kim Overbury Montreal, Quebec, Canada
My name is Charlie and I am two years old. I love Thomas and his friends and the Fat Controller too. My Daddy is sending this for me because I can't type yet, but I do like the mouse. Thanks for a great page.
Would you like a Canadian pen pal? I am writing for my 3 year old son Andrew. He will be 4 in September and would like a pen pal like those his 2 older brothers have found on the Internet. I will write for him until he learns how to write himself. We live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and would love to know more about your country, what you like to do, how you spend you time and anything you would like to tell us. Please write.
I like your pictures. I'm 35 with a wife, a son and daughter who love Thomas, and a baby daughter who will soon. I also purchased the Large Scale Thomas, James and accessories. However, the Two engines's gears tend to get stuck occasionally when changing directions. Do you have that problem also? I've also bought my son all of the Ertl toys, some wooden DGI/Buki Learning Curve, and some Nylint plastic toys. Are we crazy or what? Thanks for the nice pictures. I'll be typing you later.

We loved visiting your Thomas Party!
Hi Ariel,
Sorry that I havn't written earlier, but I have had the chicken pox,
it's not been very fun. I haven't told you, but I'm going to have a little
brother on Sept. 8th. We are going to name him Jacob. Do you have any
brothers or sisters?
My mom got me a new computer game called Mixed up Mother Goose and
it is a lot of fun.
My favorite shows are Lassie, 101 Dalmations, The Little Mermaid,
and Alvin and the Chipmunks. My favorite stuffed animals are my elephant
named Jasmine a bear named Soft Bear and Barney.
Write back as soon as you can.
HANNAH
Do you know my cousin Mingmei who loved watching The Little Mermaid was the one who chose Ariel for my name? I almost got the name Heather too as it was among the final choices for my name when I was born. Is Heather a popular name for newborn babies these days?
[I wish there had been a WWW when I was a kid - I'm a grown-up kid now.] Mom and Dad say they are grown-up kids too. They enjoy the WWW much as I do! ... The Simpsons was shown already in Hong Kong. I was too small then to remember the show at all. Among the cartoons which I watch together with my parents (yes, cartoons are for grown-ups too), I like The Flintstones, Tin Tin (from France), and Totoro My Neighbor and Kureyon Shin Chan (from Japan). Did you get to see Japanese cartoons in the US? Thanks for writing... See you later.
Thank you for dropping by my home page. I am only 3 so my dad is writing this letter with me. I have a cousin Mingmei who was born in Minnesota and is also 11. She is now in Hong Kong. Mingmei likes to read, so do I (only picture books so far). I am going to school in September, so I won't have as much time to watch TV and videos. My newest videos are Barney and Old MacDonald Had a Farm Sing-A-Long. I like Sesame Street, Thomas the Tank Engine and Flintstone very much. My first real movie and the only one so far in a movie theater was Pocahontas. Did you see it yet? What are your favorite TV shows? See you later.
I am only 3 so my dad is writing this letter with me. I love to play
computer games too. My favorites are Just Grandma and Me and Arthur's
Teacher Trouble. I also like to draw using KidPix. You can see some of my
drawings on my World Wide Web home page at:

I enjoyed reading your page. When I saw the movie I wanted my name to be Ariel. Your page was very well put together. I also love all the Disney movies, and everything from Disney.
You are one cute kid! You have pretty cool parents, too. I really enjoyed your home page. Keep it up! I wish there had been a WWW when I was a kid - I'm a grown-up kid now. One of my favorite cartoons is The Simpsons. Have you ever seen that?
My favorite Disney movie is The Little Mermaid. I loved the romance and the way Ariel rebeled and did as she wanted no matter what her father said. I also like the movie Beauty and the Beast.
Hey Ariel! My name is Bethany. I am 11. I really like your home page. Maybe we can be friends. Please respond.
Mom show us your home page, and we really enjoy it, especially the pictures. Dad also say it is very nicely, your parent did a excellent job. Actually, we met when we are very little. Mom shown me a picture, you are still a baby then. I am sure you are much bigger and looks more like a little girl now. I don't think you met my little sister, Andrea. She will be two next month, and I will be 5. Ok, mom and dad say we will visit your home page again. Ohh..We haven't hear your songs yet, may be next time, if mom and dad can figure out how to access those *.au files. talk to you soon... ;)
The movie Little Mermaid was a good show! I loved it.
Oh, Ariel, I was just going to turn out my computer because I worked hard the whole day when your message arrived! I was quite surprised! A good surprise, of course! I was browsing the net, other day, when I saw your home page. You are very lucky to have a mom to help you! Congratulations. I am going to sent you the guidelines to become [a member of] ... Kidlink. Actually, we are with a project named "Virtual transactions". The kids are exchanging mails, trying to spend $100. It's been vey funny. Maybe you can join us. I live in Rio de Janeiro, it's winter by now but our winter is very good. We don't have snow and we go to the beach. That's winter? It's because Brazil is a tropical country. Our flag is green, yellow, blue and white. Saying like that it looks horrible but it is beautiful, jolly, with some stars also. I hope to hear from you but I am going to bed now. It's too late (3.55 am - July 16). I think you just woke up. You can look at the map and see why we have this difference. Cheers, Marisa
More pictures of Thomas from my home page now. Check them out.... ... Your message is my first piece of email from Cambridge, MA, a place fond in my dad's heart - he was a Course X graduate many years ago. But he hasn't been back there for over 10 years now.
Your email message is my first one received from Brazil. I know only Brazil's flag, with the blue globe. How about letting me know the url's of a Brazil kids' site that I can visit on the Web? I'd like to get a pen pal from Brazil. Are the Kidpal Project, Kidlink, Kidforum, Virtual Transaction on the Net already? I'd like to know how to participate.
Thanks for your message, and yours have been the second or third message from Mexico. I learned that the movie Pocahontas is now being shown in Mexico already. Do Mexicans like the movie? Your message will go up in my Message Book on 15 July. Write again.
I really enjoyed reading your message and I hope you write to me on my E-Mail BYE
Hi Ariel, I am visiting your home page and I am liking it very much. I am a teacher in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and I am following the way kids are communicating. I am the Keypal Project coordinator and I work linking via Net kids from Canada and Brazil. They already developed several cooperative projects. I am also the Kidlink Kidforum assistant coordinator and I am moderating a project named "Virtual Transaction" by now. I love kids and I hope they will find a nice virtual place to chat and to make a better world in the future. Nice meeting you, I loved your picture. Cheers, Marisa
My name is Sarah Douglas. cfhcrfnunruhfyrbbycuryuf. And my dad is helping me to write this. I am 4 years old and I live in Brampton, Ontario, Canada.
My son, Colin, says HI - and loves Thomas and his friends too.
I think that "Pocahontas" is the same history than Mexico, the relation betwen La Malinche and Hernan Cortez, but the film was adapted for USA history. Best wishes Your friend Mr. Pollito (Edgar Castillo Barrera)
I'm getting 2 years old, my dady's sending the message, I'd like to appear in your Message Book. By the way, nice Home Page. Greetings!
Hi I like swimming, hockey, netball and cute guys. What do you like?
The movie [Pocahontas] was great, I think it's one of the best movies I've ever seen. The music of the movie was beautiful, and the animation was excellent.
Thank you for writing and all your nice words on my home pages. We're almost a day apart, so I probably were asleep after my big birthday party when you sent me the happy birthday message on the SAME day! Mom will add a page soon to record this very special birthday at which I was aware of what's really going on for the first time. (See - I'm just 3 years old!). And we'll also put in the many totally unexpected birthday messages from Cyberspace! ...
I was born and raised in Hong Kong, but I have been living in Hawaii for almost 7 years. ... Yesterday was July 2 here in Hawaii, but I could not send Ariel a Happy Birthday message because somehow I got cut off every time after I got connected.... I tried about 15 times and I was all frustrated and finally gave up! Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ARIEL!!! ... I got to go to work now and I am looking forward to hearing from you (especially you are Chinese from Hong Kong, that make me feel a little bit homesick.) ...
...Do you really like to return to China? In our past (communist past) we all hated imperialsm because it has colonies. Now we're free (but have many new problems), everyone may think what he wants. So that's interesting to hear. Do you like to be a British colony? ... If you'll read rec.arts.disney newgroup you would see my FAQs. You're added. I have [Disneys] ftp and www sites. But ftp site is VERY busy. Always have max. anonymous users. But you can use WWW page.
Thank you for visiting my home pages. You are the first visitor from Russia, and I would like to know more about and travel someday in Russia. ... I just turned 3 two days ago. In Hong Kong, we all speak Chinese. The local dialect is called Cantonese, and we also speak Putonghua, or Mandarin, the common dialect spoken all over China. I do speak some English, as do my parents. Hong Kong used to be a British colony, and will soon return to China's sovereignty in two years. [Anton as a maintainer of Disney FTP and WWW sites FAQ asking Ariel: do you want to be added?] Of course! I feel honored to be listed in Russia! Please let me know where your ftp or www site is. Not many people have been to Russia. So I'd like to add a link to your site from my home page to direct my visitors to also visit your site in Russia. Thank you and look forward to hearing from you again, Ariel (with mom Shuen Shuen) from Hong Kong, China
Are you 3 years old? I mean Ariel. Do you speak English or your mother does? And I'm as a maintainer of Disney FTP and WWW sites FAQ asking you: do you want to be added? Thanks!
Hi Ariel! Happy birthday! ((((())))) :-*. It is your birthday, right? It's the Fourth of July here in the States. Hot dogs, backyard bar-b-ques, fireworks, and beach parties! ! ! Little Sarah has switched from a milk-based formula to a soy bean based formula. She was having difficulties in digesting the milk-based formula. Sarah is doing very well with it, but my wife is not too happy with it because, get this, Sarah doesn't smell like a baby anymore. :-) I told her, the Soy bean based formula tastes a lot like a Chinese soy bean drink I had when I was a child - Vitasoy? Oh, the joy of parenting. Bye for now.
Hi, I just saw the new Disney movie, 'Pocahontas', and loved it so much I wanted to write to you. I am Mayan by birth, and love being a Native American.
Thanks for the Thomas pix. Son loves them! :)
... Have you tried Luk Yu Cyber Reserve Dim Sum? Let 's go ...
I'm sorry I was so vauge! I wasn't thinking okay,... I am a girl and I am 12 years Old. My birthday is Sept 18 and I do not YET have a home page. All questions answered? Good! I'm very glad you wrote back so soon because we are a day behind you and I would have missed your cool things on your home page! I live in Orlando Fl. USA. ( Did I already say that?) Well I'll go now bye! Write soon.
Thank you for writing! My birthday is tomorrow. It is going to be a special! I've received many birthday wishes, including yours, from all over through my home page. I'm going to have a regular birthday party. My cousins and friends will come. But Dad says there will be some surprise visitors on my home page tomorrow. So I'm all excited to find out who. So who is Eran? Are you a boy or a girl? And how old are you? When's your birthday? Do you have a home page? Write again....
I am so impressed with your home page! I think it is just amazing that with the touch of a button I can find every thing I could possibly want to know about a little girl from across the world! You sound like an interesting little person. I even know what you look like and I can explore your interest. Congrats mom!!! You did a great job on these pages! If you or someone else from China would like [to] I would love a pen pal! Hope to hear from you soon! Love ya.
Just chasing down links to the penguin.
Wow, what a surprise from you all and a BIG, BIG Thank You! I'm totally psyched up for my upcoming birthday parties this weekend - they will last two days at three different places! Yes, Ariel is the name my cousin thought of for me - she's a fan of The Little Mermaid just as I am. Wichita - Dad has a good friend teaching Mathematics at Wichita State U. Now we just get to know more friendly people after you sent me email. And Kattie, have a happy birthday coming up in July!
Hi Ariel, my name is Betty. Happy Birthday to you on July 2. Are you familiar with the "Little Mermaid"? Is that where you got your name? We are typing this in during a computer class. Thank you for letting us send you a message. Hi, my name is Ineke. When you get bigger, I hope you will come and visit our country! Hi, my name is Kattie. My birthday is in July also.I hope you have a happy birthday. Hi, my name is Janet. I hope you have a real fun birthday. I'd like to visit your country someday. When I was in college I had a roommate from Hong Kong. Hi, my name is Bruce. My little girl, Kayla, is one year younger than you are. She was 2 on June 3rd. Have a happy birthday and eat a piece of cake for me!
Hello Ariel, welcome to my Disney Page! You're now listed as the probably youngest fan with yet her own home page :-) I wish you a happy start into life and many more wonderful Disney experiences. And don't forget to give your helping mom a hello ... ...
[Pocahontas] won't start [in Hong Kong] till July 9, I think. And yes, ['Fung Jong Kie Yuen' (Extraordinary encounter in the wind] is the name in Chinese and what it means literally.
Great! Hope you find the infomation [on upcoming Disney Animated features] useful! By the way, has Pocahontas started playing in Hong Kong?? What's it called in Chinese? I read in a Taiwan paper that it's call 'Fung Jong Kie Yuen' ( Extraordinary encounter in the wind??) Is it the same in Hong Kong?? By the way, I spent a couple of years in Hong Kong and speaks Cantonese.
May the [Web] force be with you and your CyberKid! Hong Kong CyberClock Time.....Random Travel.....Wish you were here!
Mom put in a link to your home page from mine already. Expecting more people to know Alan now? :-) ... Check out a special Pocahontas page which we put up today. The new Disney movie is having its American premiere today but we got a chance to see a sneak preview last Sunday. When will it be shown in the UK? We've enjoyed it much. Hope Alan likes it too.
Hello. I'm Alan. I've been eating my biscuits in Mummy's office and looking at your page. I've listened to your songs and I wish you could come and see me sometimes. I've got liang zhi lao hu [Two Tigers]; I'm going to sing it to you. We need to do packing today. We are going to the airport to go to Japan and China next weekend. Bye bye. I'm going to play with my car now. See you later. Love from Alan. PS. The song is on Alan's page... Steve [Alan's dad]
Hong Kong people love to shop too.... Hong Kong used to be called the Shoppers' Paradise. It's no longer true. Things are all very expensive here now. More than they are in Canada, I'm sure. It's hot and humid here even though it's not into the middle of the summer yet. When it's summer, it's less humid, and we love to go to the beach. I don't know how to swim yet. I play in paddle pools at home, and always made the floor wet. I love it and always make my finger tips all wrinkled before I get out of the water.... We don't have [McDonald's] drive-throughs in Hong Kong. I think that's cool without having to get out of your car. Maybe they can start a home delivery service with ordering through email one day. That will be really cool without even having to change and get into the car. My hamburger will arrive when I finish writing my letter to you! Don't you agree? I forget to mention ice cream as my favorite last time. I like chocolate, strawberry. But I don't like the chocolate making my teeth look brown. I always have to brush my teeth after having chocolate ice cream. And I don't take anything sweet after my supper 'cause I don't want to get bad teeth.... No, I don't have a Barbie. But I have a cute little doll named Banana Pyjama. Dad says it's from Australia. I like to dress and undress him. (Yes, it's a he. Dolls can be boys too, right?). I have many stuffed animals, a few teddy bears, doggies and rabbits, and also the less commonly seen ones like the Koala, Thick-Lip Fish, Baby Dinosaur, Piggy, Moo Moo Cow, E.T., Mr. Sun (a big Sunflower) - well, not exactly an animal, and Snoopy and Minnie Mouse. I like my puppets Crocodile, Monkey, Parrot and the Frog. I like toy cars and tricycles, Lego, blocks, cooking sets, playing cards, word cards, puzzles. My car is pink and my tricycle is blue. What colours are yours?
I was very happy to receive your letter. It is really nice to learn
about different places in the world. Hong Kong sounds
like a very nice place to live. Here in Vancouver we have a lot of
mountains and large forests. We have many highrises and tons of
shopping centers, people here love to shop.
Now that it is spring the weather is very nice. Although we have a
great deal of rain the average temperature is about
20 degrees celcius.What is the weather like there?

I think the best part of Vancouver is the ocean our city lies right beside
it. The ocean water is very warm in the summer and lots of fun to swim
in. Do you know how to swim?
I too love Mcdonalds french fries and hamburgers.We often go through the
drive through window and bring our Mcdonalds food home to eat. My favorite
foods are mainly pasta ie.spaghetti. And for a treat I love ice cream.
I have a lot of toys to play with - my favorite is my Barbies.Do you have a
Barbie doll? Or what other toys do you like to play with?...
...Hong Kong is a beautiful city with a vast jungle of concrete ^_^ We have a harbour and many islands. I live on one of these islands where there is a mountain peak of height 1000 meters overlooking the harbour. At night, all the lights in the high rise apartment buildings give a very pretty scenery from the peak. We have 6 million people here and most of us are Chinese. Like other big cities in the world, Hong Kong is modern, westernized, and convenient. I like to go to McDonald's for French Fries and hamburgers. But my favorite foods are still typically Chinese - rice, tofu, fish, pork, Chinese greens like bok choi and choi sum. What's your favorite?...
Hi, I would like to make a new friend. ... My name is Cassandra and I am just learning the computer and the internet along with my grandma and grandpa. I am 5 years old and have a little baby sister named Cristen who is 6 months old. I would realy like to hear from you and get some information about where you live. If I hear from you I will e-mail you back and tell you about the city I live in (Vancouver, B.C., Canada). Hope that I will hear from you soon.
Hi Jessica and Katie, Thank you for your email. I am Kaitong Ariel Yu, or you can just call me Ariel, from Hong Kong. I'm only 2 years 10 months old, so my dad is helping me to answer your mail. Where is your home town and state in the US? Mom and Dad helped build my home page, and I made recordings on songs I know. I also drew some pictures for everyone to see. Are you setting up your home page now? Do you do it at home or at school? I got many messages from friends all over, all of them older than I. Mom will put on some of these messages to share with my friends visiting me. Some of them are building their home pages or have them done already. I'll also put on a list of my favorite cartoons and movies on my page soon. Check it out later....
Hi Kaitong! We live in the USA. We are eleven and twelve years old.We are interested in the same activities as you. Please e-mail us back ....
Hi Molly, Thank you for your lettter. You see, I'm still very young, and my parents are helping me to answer your mail.... I like gymnastics too. But I can only do tumbling right now. I was born in Hong Kong and I live in Hong Kong. I like dogs but I don't have one. In Hong Kong, it's very crowded. People mostly live in high rise apartments. Ours is 12-storey high and it's not the best place for keeping dogs. They won't have a place to run around. I like Chinese food, and chicken wings and rice and celery very much. I also like bread, spaghetti, French fries from McDonald's. I'm not in school yet, but I'll be in September when I'm three. Now I go to a playgroup every Wednesday morning. I just came back today. My favorite thing to do ... let me think... got to be visiting McDonald's after the playgroup. Too many things are my favorite, and I can only think of what's for today.... These are some of the Web sites my parents found out [on China and Hong Kong], and you can visit them and get much information: China Home Page from Beijing, China China Tour Online World Monitor Focus on China (links to Chinese education, culture and more) Dartmouth University Language Resource Center China Page Infolink Guide to Hong Kong Hong Kong Terminal Hong Kong Online Guide ...
