At Unit : In Unit we added to our action that we would make traveling routes in Hong Kong by bus. We also started page 17 in our exhibition booklet which asks about our solution. At the end we sent an e-mail to Mr.Kwok which is our mentor if we could go on a field trip. In the field trip we will take pictures and videos of the m.t.r map and ride the m.t.r.
