      Today , we were like normal went to school with our home stay family's child. In the morning, we had some lessons. In afternoon, we went to visit the museum.  It's a bit boring, but the speaker was funny.  

     In those few days in New Zealand , I had meet many new and interesting things. In Hong Kong we can see high buildings every where. But in Timaru most of the buildings are flat. I like that kind of houses, it is very big and beautiful. Also I love the sky. The  beginning of morning, sky are bright pink and orange. In the afternoon, sky are really blue. Lastly, in the evening the sky will turn back to light pink and orange. It is amazing, we probably can't see that kind of sky in Hong Kong. 
      
       I'm looking forward to see what interesting things happen in the rest of the trip !

On day one of our trip, we took the plane to NZ. On day two, we met our host family which have Julie, Callum , Leah and Guy. They are all so nice to us. After that, we went to home and waited for the dinner. We ate pizza for our dinner. On Sunday, we went out and looked around the city in NZ. Thee was a big garden. It was so nice. On Monday, we went to school and had fun in there. The school is so big. I am looking forward to the rest of the trip.

The First Day At New Zealand's School

The First Day At New Zealand's School

Today was my first day that I came to the school at New Zealand.We went out at 8:10 for school. About 10 minute later , we arrive . I saw a big , white building with a bright sun. After a while the boys were  arrive the school and there have many girls look around at them , I think it was the most funny thing I ever seen it before. The girls look at the us (just the girl) was a unhappy face , look like did't like us.
