 Neelansh&Jonathans tour

Have you ever gone to Newzealand? If you have, you must know it's a mesmerising place.  Giant gumboots, lakes and much more. I will show you the famous landmarks today.

 

 DID you know Rotorua is known for its famous spas and geysers and the bad smell! Rotorua also has aquatic volcanoes in its lake 

and Taihape is famous for its big gumboot! Taihape is in the north and smack in the middle. Taihape, home of the great gumboot. Taihape and it also has a gumboot throwing competition. Isn’t that just weird? 

Have you ever heard of lake Taupo? It’s a monstrous lake. By the way, Taupo is located in the middle of the north island. It also is called the belly of the fish. You see… Maui put his foot down and pulled up the north island and got the massive fish. His brothers and sisters ate the fish and Taupo is smack in the middle of the fish’s belly. Taupo’s full name is Taupo-a-Nui-tia

Kaikoura, NZ's biggest fish magnet. Also a convenient place for gold mining. The story of Kaikoura starts here. So Maui was standing in the north and fished out a massive fish. The massive fish is now the south and Maui put up his foot and that made the north island.

THE RACE

 

SPLISH! SPLASH! The crowd roars as the children sank their feet in the squishy mud. They jump and leap to stop others from taking victory from each other. The weather is bad so there was a lot of wind which made the race difficult. The runners nice shoes instantly got cloaked by the mud. Obstacles emerged from the runner’s view. As graceful as a horse they jumped over the weather-beaten hurtles. Faster than a cheetah the children ran with full determination and didn’t stop no matter what!  The finish line was close. The parents kept encouraging everyone. The trees danced gracefully in the background. AND THEN …..

To be continued.
