Today I saw a Māori haka. To be honest, I liked the singing more than the haka. The song started all of a sudden, and it really surprised me because it was so good. They sang with such strong, high voices, and I thought it was amazing. Lunch was also nice—I could pick what I liked, and there were lots of desserts, which made me happy.

Today I went to Rotorua. The guide was handsome, and I was happy to take a photo with him. I could smell hot springs all the time. My host family’s car is new, so the ride was very comfortable. After we came home and had dinner, I played a lot with the kids.

Today we all went to Te Puia. There we saw Maori buildings, dances, and kui. Kui was hard to see in the dark, but when we did see it, it was fluffy and very cute. The Maori dance was very impressive and I was amazed. I want to see it again! As souvenirs, I bought matching earrings for my mom and me, a keychain that I thought my dad would like, matching kui stuffed toys for the whole family, and matching kui stuffed toys for everyone. I hope everyone will be happy!
