  1. Hello Caitlin,

    I'm Evelyn and I will be working with the Summer Learning Journey team for 2018-2019 to read and follow amazing blog posts like yours! I am so excited to read what pops into that wonderful brain of yours and hope you have fun on this journey!

    Those are some interesting facts about New Zealand! I've been here my whole life and never knew about the first fact so thank you for telling me a bit more about our country! What a unique and special bird we have, don't you think? Do you have friends who are from another country and do they call you a Kiwi? When I go to visit my friends in Australia, Taiwan or South Africa, they call me a Kiwi! They thought it was funny to be calling me a bird but I told them it is a normal nickname here in New Zealand. You are absolutely correct, the largest city is Auckland and it's where I live! Auckland is very different to the other cities of New Zealand. There are less farm land and more shopping malls. Have you ever been to Auckland? We have the Sky Tower here, it's the tallest freestanding tower in the Southern Hemisphere so it's really high! Are you scared of heights? Do you think you would like to go up the Sky Tower? I've been up twice and the view is great! You can also bungy jump off the side of the tower but I don't think I'll ever be brave enough to do that. Would you ever bungy jump?

    Happy blogging,
    Evelyn :D
