New Zealand



On the way home we stopped in the country of New Zealand for one day. It is a small country which is mostly two big islands. We were in a city called Auckland and it was really nice. We went to a museum and got to see a lot of art and historical stuff from the Maori people, who are the indigenous people of New Zealand. The Maori are like the Aboriginal people in Australia because they were there a long time before people came from Europe. They are also very different than Aboriginals too. We got to see a cultural performance and it explained some of their history as a people. It was very interesting and cool. We then took some pictures with the men and women in the performance we saw. I am glad I got to see New Zealand.
