Whangārei Heads, NZ: Swimming Everyday

When we got to Whangārei Heads, we were greeted by the host who lives on top of our Airbnb. My sister and I have bunk beds, and my parents have king-size beds. We stayed there for a week, so it was a nice place to stay, and I was right on the water where the beach was. My dad and I are trying to go to the ocean every day for a month, and we are doing it here because...

Waitomo, NZ: Wood Burning Fire

On the first day in Waitomo was a blast. We had a 5 hr car ride which felt longer than it should have but it was still really fun. All I did was watch YouTube videos and play subway surfers (my record was 31,000). We had 3 leg breaks and one of them we played football. And I caught one of them one handed which was cool because my legs were really tried. When we got to the cottage we...

So we went to go free skating for 2 hours. But about five days before I hurt my right hand so whenever I would stick handle or shoot it would hurt a lot. Since my sister had nothing to do she...

September in New Zealand

The next day, we went to Kadyn’s gymnastics, and before we went there, we went to Rebels Sports ( which is like Sportcheck), where I got a football.  After we went to Kadyn’s gymnastics we went to a restaurant. I got mac and cheese and my sister got grilled cheese. The mac and cheese was ok. That week we went to this...

Week 1: Seals

Week 1 September 1-8th, 2024 When we got to New Zealand there were way more mountains than I thought they would have. I thought it would be like Saskatchewan, like really smooth.  When we landed we picked up our rental car at the airport. We got a Kia Niro, it was nice.  We were really tired on the second day because of the time difference. We went to bed at 9 pm and woke at 11 pm and stayed up...
