Bonus - speech BY:Shanya

During the holidays I went to Japan. These are the things that I did in japan. I went to the monkey hot spring it was so fun looking at the monkeys and the species of the monkeys are snow monkeys. The water in the pool looked hot. I also went to the zoo in japan. In the zoo I saw some panda's, seal's, monkey's and underground creatures. I went to the yakushi-ji temple and looked at the amazing art and designs in the temple and outside of the temple. I also went to a restaurant to eat some dumplings in noodle, it was so yum. The name of the restaurant was robot restaurant. The red seats were comfy. I watched some nice programs on the TV. I loved my visit to japan!

W4, day19 - Activity2 - Amazing vehicles BY:Shanya

Air bike Aero X -

I like the air bike aero X because it looks cool and it looks comfortable too. It also looks very easy to navigate, because there a steering wheel and probably 2 pedals. The design looks amazing and also if there was a animal on the road you wouldn't touch the animal because it can hover. To me it's like a hover car.

W4, Day19 -Activity - Vehicle Rides By:Shanya

Bus – 45 minute ride; Two stops along the way to look at interesting villages; $8 for the trip (return)
I would choose the bus ride because you get to look at some interesting villages. Also because it's 45 minutes long so you can take you're time looking at different things. The price is only $8 which is better than the train because the train is 25 min long and it's $12.

Bonus - Kakapo By:Shanya

I think that they should gather 3 males and 3 females, then they should find a park and put a big big green house a plant some trees then add a pond of fresh water. Then you can put the kakapos into the green house.

W4,day18 - Activity 1 - Story By:Shanya

I had just entered the zoo when, all of a sudden, I saw 20 pandas in their enclosure, inside of their enclosure was plenty bamboo a stream of clean water and some play toys. I walked past the panda's then i saw a tunnel that you could crawl through so I decided to crawl through the tunnel. The tunnel was see through. I could only dirt, but then I looked closely and there were termites and worms and some grubs in the dark dirt. I started crawlings following the glowing line till I was out of the tunnel. Then I turned right and kept on walking, there were birds flying around. I saw some seals doing tricks with big bouncy inflated beach balls. Then I turned left towards the monkey enclosure, the zoo keeper was feeding the monkey bananas and she was also playing with the monkey. I got bored to I returned to the exit of the zoo. I went to the souvenir shop and bought a soft cuddly seal. They took a photo of me against a green background then they animated the photo so the background was no longer green it was some monkeys in the background. I went back to the hotel and slept!

W4, day17 - Activity 1 - Monkey hot spring By:Shanya

I want to visit the Jigokudani Monkey Park. I want to visit that place because in new zealand you don't get to see monkeys in a hot spring. Since I like animals I think I would like to observe what they do. Also I haven't seen a snow monkey before.

W4, day16 - Activity 2 - Geijutsu no hi (Arts day) By:Shanya

My one is Geijutsu no hi which means Arts day in japanese. Everyone will have the day off from work and school. If they want they can go in a group to their nearest temple and make some paintings, make a traditional dance or make a short movie. And they will have 1st, 2nd and 3rd for each topic. This day is held on the 28 of january.

I would feel happy that at least you could go to school. I would also feel sad because you would miss a lot of years of school.

W3, Day 15 - Activity 1 - Painting By: Shanya

http://www.wassilykandinsky.net/work-251.php

1. What do you think of this painting? Do you like it? I like the painting because you can visualise different things.
2. If you could buy it and give it to someone, who would you choose? I would choose my mum because she likes abstract art.

Bonus - Prime minister by:Shanya

I don't want to be prime minister because you have to do a lot of paperwork, computer work, read letters and going to meetings. Also you don't have much time with your family and friends. Sometimes people say nasty things about you and you have bodyguards with you wherever you go, so you don't really feel free.
