Hello! Today we saw hot pools at Te Puia. They were scalding hot. Some of the water was green, yellow, orange, and grey. The sulphur in the pools made it change the waters color. It was really stinky. I went bungee jumping from 42 meters (142 feet). My brother did a swoop, that's where he starts high up and swoops down; it is sort of like bungee jumping but in a straight jacket. We both did a free falling simulator. We were flipped and twirled. We also did a ZORB BALL. That's where you climb into a big ball and people fill it with water then zip you in and roll you down a hill. You can choose to go in a zig zag path or straight down. We took some scenery pictures of New Zealand. How are you guys? Are you having fun in school? Did it snow yet? Let us know if anything exciting happens.

hi Paden
ReplyDeletewe had the parent interviews on thursday and friday.
Did the coloured water smell like rotten egg?
i would never dare to bungee jump but Anna and Claire would.
The spinning ball looks insane but fun.
Mrs Corbett does not like the idea of the spinning ball with water in.
Did you actually bungee jump or not? Teagan's question.

Hey Guys - Alex and Ronnie here. It sounds like you're having a ton of fun. The Zorb ball sounds fun! It's cool that you went Bungy Jumping, and that Colton did the Swoop! It is getting colder here now, and we are starting to sled in our yard. Dad also is building a skating rink again, so we just finished playing Boot Hockey. Alex has joined a 4H Club, and Ronnie is busy with hockey.
ReplyDeleteWe will write more soon. Alex & Ronnie
HEY!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think we are the most jealous people right now! Looks like you guys are having fun. We are stuck in the house cause there is a terrible blizzard! Sadly it isn't the one made at Dairy Queen. We are still doing the same old things. It hasn't been good enough to ski yet but it will probably get better in the next couple of weeks. Question-Do you feel like a tiny winy hampster when your in the zorb ball?? I like to know for future reference. Hope you guys are having even more fun then it sounds like. If that made any sense at all. Hugs and kisses!
Luv,
Cooper and Jackson
