On Saturday I finally made it to go to Hobbiton! It was really cool:)
My friend and me caught a bus from Tauranga to Matamata at 7:30 in the morning; it took about 50 minutes to go there. In Matamata we got our tickets and another bus picked us up nd brought us to the movie set. We had a tour guide who told u a lot of interesting things about Hobbiton, for example that they hardly changed the landscape, they just build the Hobbitholes and decorated it a little bit, but all the trees, lakes and hills are real! Peter Jackson put a lot of etail into Hobbiton, although you can only see it for a few minutes in the film. There are some Hobbitholes you can't even see in the movies(!) and they use the plants they grow in the gardens of te Hobbit holes to make food and drinks in the "Green Dragon", a restaurant where you get a free drink after the tour and where you really feel like a Hobbit:). My friend and I had a great time and you have to check out the photos!
By the way, I didn't write any comments to the pictures because there's something wrong with the blog or the internet, I don't know. But I've already told you something about it so I hope you don't miss them:P. I have problems with the internet(especially with the blog) all the time. I can't upload more videos, sometimes I even struggle to upload texts or pictures. When I'm using the internet it takes for ages to load something and sometimes I can't even get to the page at all. I'm looking forward to the Wifi at home!
The last two weeks went fine. I didn't do anything really exciting apart from Hobbiton (I had a day off on Friday(Teacher's Only Day), but that's it)
