WELLINGTON-Koru Lounge

After our long day, sight-seeing, everyone was ready to have dinner. But it wasn’t just any dinner, it was dinner at the Wellington Koru lounge. We had been at the Koru lounge in Auckland that morning but we didn’t really have enough time to enjoy it because we had to board the plane. But when we got to the Wellington Koru lounge we still had another two hours until our flight.The room was packed with people in suits and laptops. Lots of people were looking at us because there weren’t many children there.


For my dinner I had rice with beef stew. It was really nice. But the dessert was even better. I had a little trifle, it had a little rasberry cake at the bottom with custard on the top. I also had a really nice louise slice. I can’t really explain it but, it was delicious.

WELLINGTON-Cable Car

Just before we had to leave Wellington ,we got to go on the cable car. It was so fun. The view from the top was AMAZING!! You could see everything. The ferries leaving the doc, people playing soccer and the sea. We tried to take some pictures that looked like we were holding the city and like it was in a heart. I hoped that I could come back to Wellington with my family, and for a longer amount of time.

(P.S the picture of the clouds is the view from the plane going to Wellington)

WELLINGTON-Te Papa

Te Papa museum was A-W-E-S-O-M-E! One of the highlights there for me was going on the high ride. It was so cool, you got to sit on these chairs and look at the big screen. The screen would show an activity you might be doing in New Zealand but it doesn't show anyones head so you feel like your the person doing it. For example there was a bit where you felt like you were in a truck going along a rocky road, your chair would be going up and down really fast. It was so fun. Check out these photos to see what else we got up to.

WELLINGTON-Presenting

As we snuck around the back of Te Papa, butterflies fluttered around in my stomach. No one knew that we were coming to speak at this conference, they thought it was someone famous, but instead it was a bunch of kids coming to tell them about their school. Finally it was time to go onto the stage their was a huge round of applause as we walked on. My butterflies were flying around and round in loops. This was the moment.

On the Plane to Wellington

On the morning of Thursday 18th of May I woke up at 3:30am and couldn't get back to sleep. I was extremely excited, because all of the ambassadors(Chante, Rita, Vivienne, Darius, Waata, Kingston and Crusader and I) were going to Wellington to present at Te Papa.


When we were boarding the plane, after our nice muffin and drink in the koru lounge, everyone was talking to their friends, luckily the pilot waited for us to get on. It took a while to get to our seats, because they were all the way at the back, but we got there. It was so cool that we got to use our netbooks on the plane so that kept us entertained for the ride.

Sorry I don't have a movie for you yet.
