My impression of an airport dated back to my childhood. I was residing at Nau Chi Wan Village, near today's Choi Hung Estate and adjacent to Ngau Chi Wan Fire Station. At that time, Kai Tak Airport was located at Kowloon City. I spent my childhood and adolescence in the waiting hall of Kai Tak Airport for sightseeing, reading and doing school assignment. Airport impresses me as a place for departure and reunion happened to mankind.In 1988 while I was emigrated to Canada, my sister embraced me and sobbed for our parting sorrow. In the past 5 years, I have been flying back to Hong Kong at least once a year to visit my aged mom and 2 sisters. This time, I have experienced the parting sorrow of the beloved one.

我對機場的印像源於童年。當時家居牛池灣，即現在彩虹邨及牛池灣消防局位置的小村。當年的啟德機場座落在九龍城區。童年及青少年時代都喜愛到機場候機大堂瀏覽和閱讀課本。機場給我的印像是締造人間離合的地方。1988年移民加國，妹妹便擁著我哭泣，盡是離愁別緒。過去五年，我都會返港省親最少一年一次，探望年邁母親與兩位家妹。今年返港卻感到親人離別的傷痛！
