hey so i am in wellington again today and i did the Lord of the Rings tour! and i have to say...... it is deffinatly not for me! so i am sorry dad and carrie i will not be able to show you anymore pictures of where they filmed it... i will if some regular person tells me but not on a tour! i have to say i should have figured that the people going on the tour would know like everything about it and like be really really really into it!.....and i mean like really into it, two of them wore elf ears and another one brought a sword! some things were interesting like finding out little things peter jackson did to make things look lots better and little opps in the film that you would only be able to see if you slowed down the film frame by frame! when i singed up for it i thought i was doing the half day but actually it was the full day so i had to sit throught seven and a half hours of people talking about middle earth like it is another country beside NZ! When they all started talking i didnt know what they were saying half the time, it just seemed like gibberish to me and if i tried to change the subject they some how could link anything i said to LOTR. yeah so after endouring all of that i went to Te Papa Meseum. Te Papa was really cool, they had a whole floor dedicated to Moari people and i was reading this one tribe for ages cause it was the tribe that was in Whale rider! and it was soo cool to like see it was real and find out more about it. i also saw the giant squid and its eyes were the size of my head! i do have to say it was a little bit of a let down cause when someone said i giant squid my brain is so fantastical that i was thinking a squid that was the size of a football feild! by the time i had finished doing all this vodafone was closed so i still dont have a phone yet i am going to try and get one in aukland cause i am going to taupo tomorrow and i dont think they have vodafone stores there and someone told me that in auckland they are giving out free sim cards to backpackers! so i will try and get one there if i can get one on time! so have a great day guys i will probably talk to you tomorrow!
xoxo
