紐西蘭遊學日記-施凱智

     Trez took Tony and me to Waihi Beach this afternoon. We were going fishing! The boat was pulled behind the car. After arriving at Waihi Beach, we had to release the boat into the water. The water is so cold that I couldn’t help trembling.

    Then we depart. Sailing is really exciting, the boat up and down, just like sitting on a roller coaster, but much more fun, especially when you hit a wave.

    Sailing for a while we then stop at somewhere in the bay. First we throw the anchor deep in the sea, and then we put the bait into the water. Today was fish’s lucky day because we came here late, we didn’t catch a fish, what was worse, I had seasick. It was no funs for me to seat on the boat while it’s swaying in the sea. We headed to an island which I can’t recall its name and pick some shell on the beach.

    At 6:00 tonight, Jack’s father picked us up; we were going to watch rugby match in Jack’s home. Their farm is located at suburb, just like Joe and Siet’s home.

    The match hadn’t begun when we arrived, so we had some pools first, and the winners were Tony and I. the match today was held in Auckland, Aus vs. NZ, I guess it’s was the Tri Nations (the rugby game between New Zealand, Australia and South Africa). Before the match played, All Blacks would dance Haka. It’s really the best beginning of a match. NZ won the match and we really had a good time in Jack’s home.
