Another week in NZ

After the lesson in the morning, we went to the Walter Park to feed the sheep. We went there by a boat called Earnslaw. It is an old boat but it looks great! And you could enjoy the tea or drink on the boat. It's just like Star Ferry in HK! When we got off the boat, there was a dog called Meg. It is a sheep dog and it works at there! Haha... it's so funny! Then, we fed the sheep, deer and cow... After that, we walked along the road following the guide to have a tea in the lounge. The tea is good! Moreover, we could see the sheep man how to shed the sheep. Before we left, most people bought a few bottles of Lanolin Cream but I got nothing as I won't use it and I want to save my money... When we left there, we took the boat back to Queenstown. On the way, we sang lots of songs and I like all of them very much as everyone is enjoyable! One of the songs was a Chinese song - "Moon represents my heart" ! It's quite special for us to hear this song because we were in NZ! ;-) And there was a man he taught us an idiom - "Bloody Beauty, mate" ! What is the meaning of this idiom? It means excellent, very good! He was really enthusiastic! We were nice to meet this guy as he brought us quite a lot fun.




It shows the engines work inside the boat!


That's how they shear a sheep


Singing on the boat

In the evening, we got a burger for dinner. Then, we took lots of photos with Kate & Jamie because they're going to leave us on Tuesday. After that, we exchanged the contact with other counties' people. Tonight is really a good night as we also shared a Chinese song - "Moon represents my heart" to our host family. That's great! :-) I was really glad that we could have a close relationship with everyone in the home stay! And today, we met a staff on the boat, she comes from Vietnam, she told us that she could take us to go around the town. I think NZers are really nice and friendly! But finally, we couldn't get the free time and her contact numbers so that we couldn't go with her alone. If I were a visitor in Hong Kong, HKers absolutely didn't do that! :-/
