Activity 1: Planes,Trains And Automobiles
Arguably, one of the most dramatic and spectacular (beautiful) places to visit in New Zealand is Milford Sound. It has been referred to as the ‘eighth wonder of the world.’ It is a beautiful fiord (steep valley) that was formed when big pieces of ice (glaciers) melted. The melted glaciers created a beautiful river that is surrounded by dramatic cliffs and snow-capped mountains. People who visit Milford Sound are able to take a boat cruise through the middle of the fiord, walk around the area on the Milford Track or fly above the fiord as part of a private helicopter tour.Let’s imagine that you had the chance to visit Milford Sound by boat, foot (walking) or air (helicopter). Which option would you prefer? On your blog tell us which of the three options you would take to explore Milford Sound. Be sure to tell us why you have chosen this option.

I Would Choose Helicopter Because It Will Be Better That Walking The Hole Way

Activity 2: It's All In The Name
Rotorua is one of New Zealand’s most popular tourist destinations. It is a city filled with incredible forests, mountain biking tracks, lakes, and geothermal wonders, including hot springs (geysers) and mud pools. One of the most famous geothermal pools is called the Devil’s Bath at Wai-o-Tapu Thermal Wonderland. It is a neon green pool of stinky water.Over the years, people have suggested that we come up with a new name for the pool. What do you think we should call it? Take a minute to let your creative juices flow.On your blog, give us a list of three to five options for the name of this geothermal pool. Put a star (*) beside the name that you like the most.
*1.Hulk Toilet Splash Pool
2. Slime Pool
3. Glow Stick Vomit Pool
4. Killer Crock Pool
5. Mike Wazowski Pool

Bonus Activity: Picture Perfect
While New Zealand is home to some beautiful waterfalls, there are a number of stunning waterfalls in places like Canada and South Africa. In Canada, the largest waterfall is called Niagara Falls. It sits on the border between Canada and the United States of America. Thousands of tourists flock (go) to Niagara Falls every year to see the falls and to have their picture taken in front of this natural wonder. Over the past few years people have started taking ‘selfies’ and posting them online. Do you ever take selfies?
For this activity, choose one of the following three selfies. From left to right: Selfie #1, Selfie #2, Selfie #3

Selfie 1: A Team And Just Won A Sports Game And Was Aloud To Go And Take Photos With Their Fans. 1 Group Of Fans Got One Of The Members To Hold The Phone And Take The Photo. It Was In Christchurch. At A Football Stadium. It Was 9:42. A Sunday Night. The Kids That Were There Are Tired. There Was Over 1000 People There.

Selfie 2: A Person Has Just Climbed A Very Tall Tower. It Was In Canada.It Was 12:00. Almost Fell Down The Hole In The Tower. Was Very Excited Because He Had Climbed One Of The Tallest Towers In The World. Scared That He Was Going To Fall Off The Tower. Happy That He Had Got That Off His Bucket List. Had To Call His Mum And Dad To Tell Them.

Selfie 3: A Person On The Side Of A Building. Almost Fell Off. Was At 12:11 In The After Noon. Nervous That She Was Going To Fall. Excited To Get It Off Her Bucket List. Was In Auckland. Almost Dropped Her Phone. Had A Good Time

    Happy New Year! :) I'm so glad to see that you've been doing lots of blogging over the last couple of weeks. I do hope you took a little bit of time off to enjoy Christmas with your family though :)

    I think I'd choose to explore Milford Sound by helicopter as well. I've already seen it by boat so helicopter would be my next choice. Have you been before?

    You've come up with some really creative names here, Nici. If I read any one of them without seeing a picture of the pool, I'd be able to picture it perfectly in my mind. I notice that you've used two movie characters in your names too. Are those two of your favourite movies?

    I really enjoyed reading your selfie stories. I particularly like how you've include precise details, such as the time and number of people at the football game. Are you a football fan? Well done for going above and beyond, and writing something for each of the photos.

    Keep up the great blogging! :)

    Mā te wā,

    Mikey
