Boat trip

Marie: First, I have to say sorry, because I don’t write something on here that often. My homestay family has no internet at the moment, so it was difficult to put something on here.
However, I did a boat trip on Sunday with my host sister, a friend of her and my host dad. It was a one hour tour and really beautiful. I saw dolphins, seals, the albatross, penguins and many more animals. We had real luck, because the sun was shinning.
I promise that from now on, I will write more regularly.

Waterski and Kanu

Ann: Today my hostfamily, Bees, a friend and I went to a lake to go waterskiing, kneeboarding and some more things. Olthough I just tried the biscuit, or donat, wich is a tire behind the boat, I had lots of fun!! It was very nice watching the others and the barbecue was great!! It was a nice sunday, I hope all the others had as much fun as I had.

Botanic Gardens and DVD´s

Ann: Yesterday we all and some other german and japanese students went to the Botanic Gardens and had a wounderful picknick. Maybe we ate a bit to much, but it was really great:)We fed the dugs, too.
After the Botanic Gardes we walked down to town and got some DVD´s from the library, wich we watched at a friend´s house. OK, I and Bees and Krissy just watched one, because we had to go home then, but the pthers wanted to watch more.
Today was a great day, we had lots of fun, like every day actually.
Now Britta and I go waterskiing with my family. We´ve never done that before, but I think it´ll be fun.
See you!!

Maths test and tennis competition

Katy: Today we had our very first Maths test. But it wasn't very exiting because everybody saw this test before and we had more than enough time to find the answers. In school we had a food party in our Tutor group as well. This means we al had to bring eating staff and than ate. Tutor group is something like sitting in a room and do nothing before lunch time. Ok the most time you do nothing but when we do presentation introdutions and even food partys.After school me and Katharina had a tennis competition but we had to play against someone who has never played before so it wasn't so difficult to win. It was really interesting because the one we played against, could speak a litle bit german because her parents are both germans although she has never been in Germany.
Here is another picture for you guys:

EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ann: I think you have all heard about the earthquake in Chistchurch. Well, don´t worry, we didn´t even feel it. But it was very worse, even if it wasn´t that hard as the one in september, because it was just about 5km under the ground. When we were shopping, Bees hostmum texted her and asked if we felt it and we all were very surprised!!
But on some places in Dunedin you could feel the earthquake. My hostbrother´s girlfriend had to leave her school/university because they felt it. And my hostmum´s sister called at 1 o´clock at nicht and asked if we were OK and then at 3 o´clock her other sister´s partner called to ask the same, so she didn´t sleep very much that nicht.
Well, we in Dunedin are all fine, but the situation in Christchurch is very bad. Hopefully we won´t get that again, specially for the time we are here.

BOTANIC GARDENS


Bees: We have been to the botanic gardens at the weekend. They are very beautiful. We had a pick nick with chocolate, biscuits and sandwiches. At a store we got duck food for free that we used to feed the ducks. We also fed some Tauben. They were sitting on our arms.
