hello again!

Hello Everybody.

Today I'm located in the 17 degree heat of welllington, after coming home from Fiji today. As a lack of Internet time at Internet cafe I was unable to complete my blog on schdule. Any way from where I left off.......( the top left is a picture of the swim up bar in the pool!, and on the right is a bird's eye view of recption and the pool.)

It was a calm and humid night in Fiji, as it always was. When me and my family arrived in Fiji. Shortly after we arrived we were transpoted to the Sonasali Island Resort, This is were I left off last time to my ever changing memory. When we got to shore on the Island, a little golf cart came to pick up our bags and take them to recption for us to check in. At recption the hotel gives you a moutain of vouchers for everything from lunch to a boat ride! When we got to our room, B10 we got an porter to take our bags. our room was pretty lame. It was a one room bure with two double beds and a T.V, with of course a bathroom.

There was a massive selction of activities every day that go from 5:30 in the morning to 9:30 at night. Each night there is a series of entertainers that jump and flip into the pool with a flaming torch without the flame being exhausted. The food in the cheap restraunt was ok at the best.

On my third day I got sick and didn't leave my bed for five days. And my mum had to go into nadi for my medicine via a boat and two taxis just to get some of the most vile tasting stuff on the planet. Gastourlite, yuck!!! After five days of staying in bed I finally got out of bed.

After seven days at Bure 10 me and my family got moved into a little bit of a much nicer bure. This new bure was

Bula all from fiji!

Hello and welcome to my special report all the way from sunny 30 degree fiji.

So im here typing awayat this keboard from a nice and comfortable room with lots of A/C and it's awesome!

Now I'm going to tell you all a story that took over 8 hours to come to an end, my journey to fiji.


It was a Saturday morn on a crisp late spring when I awoke to find that today, yes today I was going on holiday. Skipping past normal Saturday routines like eating breakfast I rushed into bed and fell asleep for another hour because my flight wasn't for 4 hours.

When me and my family got to the airport we checked in at both airports!(At the same time) All the way into fiji. my first flight went @10:00am and arrived @10:50am. We walked allthe from auckland domestic airport to auckland internationalairport (different names same place). Without the bourden of bags we breezed through customs and all else in record time less than 20 odd minutes. All was looking well for my family at that time. The current time was 12:00 and our flight was at 3 o'clock so we had a little shopping time. My parents got some 'happy juice' and got a camera while, I got a new watch. All was well, then my flight got delayed three hours.

We waited and waited and waited and waited untill we got on our flight to fiji.

Okay part 1 is over now what we've been waiting for what I've been doing while your at home Yay!!

When we got to Nadi International Airport it all was so warm and made me feel fuzzy inside!(Am I the only one laughing at this! Ok I am but still) The cabbies tryed to scam us into getting a ride with them, untill the minibus driver came to pick us up from the airport.

After an half hour ride we arrived at the Sonaisali Island Resort paridise.

What will he do next find out tommorow!

Hello!

What I think about Global warming

Hello there, last year I did a little project on the Kyoto protocol and Global warming. As most of your should know the kyoto Protocol was introduced in 1997 in Kyoto, and in an international agreement that all emision standards in 2011 will be at the same level at 1997 level. And this really opened my eyes to the world and what's happening. I think that if we don't make an effort in the near future there won't be a world for my grand-children to live in and that would mean disastor for the human race. Tell me what you think on my poll.

Thanks for reading.

What I did this holiday

Hello all

This holiday I went down to see my Dad down in Geraldine it was really fun!
We went On lots of nature walks, one of which was totally uphill 90% of the whole walk which took over one and a half hours. On the way down to see my Dad I also stopped to see my Grandparents, I only was there for one day though.

I hope I'll have a good term following StageChallenge last term! And that we get tto do some really fun stuff!

Thank for reading my entry

Stage Challenge

Is rellay close

Market Day

Today the senior school (forms 1 and 2) held a Market Day where everyone bought and sold stuff to raise money for Stage challenge. Me and my friends had a spider stall ( Ice cream with coke) and made over $500 NZ dollars! ($230 US). Anyway lots of money was made and I'd like to say thanks to all people who helped.

Thanks Nathan

Well here I am!

As I might of mentioned earlier, Stage Challenge is only 8 short days away and I'm not involved on Stage! But I'll still get to go as a media person and with a backstage pass! All of the kids in Stage Challenge are really exicted. I'll post the video later. See you later.

P.S
This was the best I could do

What I did yesterday.

Yesterday the middle and senior schools including me went to see Swan lake by the New Zealand royal ballet. I found the performanc pretty good, better than I expected anyway. The dancers were very good & they made their perfomances look so easy. And you could really follow the storyline. But I didn't like the fact that they missed out of the last scene, it was ment to be thet best part. The storyteller was a little corny, but otherwise the performance was ok.

Yesterday I also worked on my science project method, which I think I did very well. For those who don't know, people behind the scenes don't always do work on Stage Challenge all the time. We also work on science projects. We follow the steps that a teacher gave us. It's all very exicting. I promise to work hard to make it the best Stage Challenge ever.

This week I've learned....

Hello

This week I've had lots of fun with my maths work. Earlier I did some angles work and some geometry. My school as I might of mentioned, my school is entering the Stage challenge and I'm on the media side of things. My job is to create a video of our work so far on our dance, I'll hope to post it after the competion. So that's me for now hope you have enjoyed reading.

Feel free to add coments.

Nathan

Well the dance video.......
