Dear Kirsty

Thank you for giving up your time to help out with our Amazing Race. You made it that bit more fun and I know that you wanted to give up in the maze I’m glad you didn’t because we came 13th. I would also like to thank you for pushing me at the Karangahake gorge. That really helped me in the long run. My favourite part of the race was when Carter had to dress up and fillet a fish that we later had to deep fry and eat. Thanks again for helping out.

Yours Sincerely Braydon Tanner  media type="file" key="amazing race reflection.m4a" width="300" height="50" __Amazing Race Reflection__

__**Day One - Te puna - Katikati -Wahi - Karangahake gorge.**__

I really liked the first day because I wasn’t worn out like I was on the other two days. My team was Carter, Page and Maddy. They were all very sporty. I think that our team did really well on the first day and even though we came 24th it was still very fun. My favourite part was seeing all the cars at the Beach Hop. The part I disliked the most was running around Karangahake gorge. The reason I disliked the run was we got told to go the wrong way about three times and for that we lost heaps of time.

__**Day Two - Papamoa - Te Puke - Rotorua**__

Day Two was a little harder because I was really tired after Day One. My team did much better on this day because we came 13th. My favourite part of the day was getting lost in the maze at Rotorua. The part I didn’t enjoy the most was when we got to Kiwi 360 there were no clues in the clue box. This made me a bit angry but we just go to look at the extra clue that Miss Crone had. A funny thing that happened that day was when Maddy had to eat a whole kiwifruit.

__**Day three - Sulpher point - Fish and chips - Kulim park - The Library - The art Gallery - The Ellems**__

Day three was really fun because I had never been to the Ellems before that day. My team came 20th which was not to great but we finished. My favourite part was making my own fish and chips and eating them. However the part I didn’t was going to Sulpher point and running around trying to find pictures of three certain boats to get the next clue. At the end at the Ellems I went around and got some pictures of the trees there.

Kiwis are the best! I believe that ﻿kiwis are the best because they are very good at rugby, we have delicious food and we welcome having tourists who we show of our scenery to. The first reason is that we are really good at rugby. The All Blacks are the New Zealand international rugby team who have won many games and the world cup once. We also have delicious food. In New Zealand you can eat the best ever Kiwifruit and you can also try Famous New Zealand wine. Some of the other foods you can try are the delicious sea food and the beautiful pavlova. In New Zealand tourists can also see the brilliant view from the top of the Mount and other awsome places. This is why I believe that kiwis are the best.
