Saturday

This morning, we woke up at 8 o'clock and went upstairs to see the America'S cup. It was quite funny because Anna's family is really involved and firing the New Zealand team activily in front of the TV. It was interesting to see them. They also wore red socks, which are the symbol of supporting the New Zealand Team. The whole cup is made of 17 races, and New Zealand only needs to win one more race to be the winner against the USA, team Oracle. And I see everyday the News about this cup, because it's quite important to New Zealand if they would win and it would be good for the tourism here.

But New Zealand did not win, because the wind was too low, so they could not finish the 5 plots in 40 minutes.. We also ate breakfast in front of TV.

Then Anna's hostfamily left to visit some friends and we stayed there some more. At 10:30 we started a hicking tour, we went up the te mata peak, but it was quite hard, because nobody could drive us up to the car park, so we had to walk there, then we actually didn't went up the peak but took some other ways and lost ourselves. Suddenly we were at another carpark.. So we decided to walk on, because we didn't really want to turn around, so we just kept on walking an that was the right choice. We finally arrived next to Anna's house, which was very strange, but we did it and we were very proud about that. We had a bag with fruit and water and the pack of favorite biscuits I offert Anna for her birthday, so we were all good and we also took a few pictures:)

Then at Anna's house we ate something small while we were watching TV and then we went down, I went back to my homestay and she went to Rikke's house, because International students aren't allowed to stay alone for a night in theif homestay, without a responsable.

So this weekend, my hostmother is on a conference in Auckland and that's why my 22 year old hostsister is here. But otherwise all is the same:)

So it was a exciting but tireing weekend until now!
