  6. Words of appreciation from a Cambridge student. A handmade print (shown below) illustrated by another student was given to CRL.

  8. Troubles: No serious trouble. One of female students felt sick (because of too humid & hot climate in this season?), but was recovered after a short rest. The sight-seeing bus was too large to change the direction in CRL.
