New Zaeland

New Zealand was probably my faverate place so far. We got there and right away I loved Aucland. It was really nice. We got there at 5:00 in the morning aftrer a long flight from Santiago. We were all tierd. I was just happy to be in a englesh speaking place. It was sort of weard though after speaking spanish for so long. When we got there my mom wanted a coffie so I went up to the place and said"Cafe con leche"(coffie with milk) and then I relized we were now in a englesh speaking place so then I said "coffie with milk" and se loked at me like I was stupid and said "do you mean flat white?" and I said yes. We left the airport and went to our apartment. It was small but nice. When we got cheaked in and everything It was 11:00 and we were starving so we went to a food cort and got some stuff to eat. Then my moms got a little sick so went home. We stayed out though. We went to the R.V rent place to see if they had eny R.Vs and they did not. Then we went back to the apartment and mom was doing good now. We spent the rest of the day at home. The next day we went walking around and for lunch we went to the tower and the veiw was amazing. We saw peaple bungy jumping. Then we got an R.V and left. A few days later we arived in Rotarura and spent the day there. We went to this show about the Mouri. It was very cool seeing them doing the dances. Then we went and went on a gondala and then did the Luge. It was very fun. We did 2 runs down. Then we went to the R.V camp and went to bed. A cople days later we went to Wellington to go over to the south Island. We went over on this huge farry, It had lots of rooms. When we got over we started driving for a long time. We drove and drove and drove untill finally we stoped and went to bed. A few days later we went to a place called Wanaka. It was nice but small. We only slep there. The next day we went to Queenstown. I loved it. It was a really nice size. I tend to like big citys more but this I must say was nice. The first thing we did was go to the imformashon center. We picked up soooooo meny flyers there. It was great. We decited to look at the fliers over lunch. So we went over to the water and ate at the cafe by the water. It was so nice. Then we figured out what we were going to do. We went to the under water aquarium and saw a lot of fish. The ducks would even come under the water when we put food out. Then we went to this thing that was sort of like bunggy jumping but you jumped really high and then you free fell 3 to 8 stories. you could do flips and stuff. It was really fun. The girls said that it might be one of the funnest thing they have ever done. Then we dicided to say good bye to Queenstown because we had to get as close as we could to Millford sound. The next day we went to Miiford Sound. It was incredibul. I cannot even discribe it. So meny water falls and cliffs and trees. We were on the boat for 3 hours. After we got of the boat we got in the R.v and drove a long time . The next day we went through Queenstown agen and went back to Wanaka. There we spent the night in the same place we had thew other night. The next day we went to a place called PuzzelTown. It was so cool. The first room was filled with Hollowgrams. They were cool. Then ther was the folowing faces room. That was scary, the faces would follow you. Then we went to a room thet would make peaple look alot taller or shorter then they really are. Then we went into this room that was slanted and it was really weird because you alwas fell down. It was also strange because when you put a poolball on a pool table the ball looked like it would go up hill. And this thing that you sat in looked like it went up hill to. Then we went to the great maze. the maze looked very easy but it ended up being very hard. You had to make into all four corners to win. Me and my mom were the first to win. ...........................................................That day was very fun. After we went to that place we had to drive as far as we could befor dark. The next day all we did was drive and we got to CristChurch. It was a very nice place and a good hotel to. We stayed in a place called Camalot. It was nice and huge compared to the small R.V. That day all we did was hangout at the hotel. The next day we walked around downtown for a little while. It was really nice. We saw some cool things. It was very windy. Then we went t the cautral museum and lerned a lot about New Zealand. The next day we went to the A&P show. That was sooooooo cool and sooooo big. We did not even make to 1/3 of it. We saw alot of new things and saw alot of shows. That was a all day event. The next day we went to a nother all day thing, The Antartice Center. That was a cool place. First we went and wached them feed penguins. That was cool. They were so cute. Then we went to The cold room where the Tempachure was as cold as it is in Antartica. There was a storm going on in there. They had a slide made out of ice. It was really fast. That center was a all day event to. We went back to the hotel ate dinner and want to bed noing that tomarow we would see Alison.........................................................
