Fofoa

On Fofoa it is really fun, we go swimming every day,

and we get home schooled.

Every day we walk through the jungle to school.

In school Kian teaches maths and science.

My mum teaches English and cultural study's, and Karyn teaches English and history.

We do school for half a day and the other half we do what we want.

 We usually go swimming.

Vava'u

We've arrived in Vava'u and we catch a taxi into the harbour

When we're there we are all very excited. We walk into a cafe called Bellavista to wait for Boris (the dad of Luca, Jack, and Felix ) to arrive in his boat.

He's here!!!

Boris's boat is called La Venuella , it is a game fishing boat.

Tongatapu

In Keliti it was really fun, as soon as me and Maisie woke up we went out side and starting picking

coconuts and bananas after a while we got bored. So we went down to the beach to see the blowholes.

This is the house we stayed at in Keliti.

This is the place we snorkelled every day, we called it the pit.

Snorkelling in Keliti.

3 days later the boys arrived their names are Felix, Luca, and Jack. We will be living with them for six months.

When we left Tongatapu we got onto a different aeroplane, it was very small.

This is the view from the aeroplane. We are going to Vava'u. 

Traveling to Tonga

When we were going to Tonga it was very exciting. We flew from Heathrow in England to Hong Kong.     When we were in Hong Kong it was really hot  - it was 45°.

 In Hong Kong we went on the star ferry and went to the fish market.

This is the fish market

We also went to the bird market there are loads of pretty parrots.

I was glad we left Hong Kong because it was just too hot

We had another 11 hour flight to New Zealand and had a day in Auckland which is a city in New Zealand. After a day there we had a three hour flight to Tonga. We arrived at night and stayed at Keliti International Resort for 6 days.

Bangkok!

Bangkok is a huge city. I like it , it is so very busy. There is lots of traffic. We catch tuk-tuks and boats to get around.  There is also a sky train & pink taxis!

We went to a temple (Mum: its called Wat Pho) and it has the biggest gold reclining buddha in Thailand. It is so long it looked the same size as an aeroplane! (Mum: it's 46m long).

In the evening we had a fish foot massage!!! You put your feet in a tank  and the fish nibble your feet! It feels very very tickly!! They are called honey fish and they eat your dead skin!!!

Today we are going to a snake farm - I will tell you how it's like another day.

Thai Food

Thai food is very spicy with lots of chillies. Mummy likes it but I don't. I can eat the thai noodles or the fried rice though.I like chicken satay a lot. I have been eating pancakes or egg & bacon for breakfast but the thai people here eat rice & fish for breakfast! They love seafood here (squid, prawns & octopus) and I do too.

They eat chicken here but they eat ALL of it - even the head and toes!!

We went to a night market and saw loads of different types of food. I tried cheese balls, a fruit smoothie and mini banana and chocolate cakes. Yum yum.

Snorkelling Fun

Yesterday I went snorkelling off a boat. The fish were beautiful and very colourful. It was so amazing to see them so close. I swam over a coral reef. It was so fun jumping off the boat!

We also went past an island full of monekeys and we fed them from the boat.
