Kia Ora New Zealand!
Kia Ora Auckland, the City of Sails
I am so thrilled to meet Kiwis, do some WWOOFing (Willing Workers On Organic Farms), surf in Raglan (the longest left-breaking wave in the world, supposedly), see glaciers, go backpacking, buy a car or take the bus. I am thrilled to be here after a long plane journey over the grand Pacific Ocean.
Some NZ Fun Facts I found on Hub Pages.
-capital city is Wellington
-largest city is Auckland
-languages are English and Maori
-majority of people are Christian
-New Zealand means, "Land of the long white cloud"
-30 percent of the land are forests
-90 mile beach is only miles long
-first country to see the sunrise
-"kiwi" is either a bird or a native
-ostrich steak and black swan carppacio do not taste like chicken!
-new zealand has two national athems- God Save The Queen and God Defend New Zealand
-there are nine sheep to every human in New Zealand
-there are 9 billion beef and dairy cattle
-Sir Edmund Hilary was the first man to reach the peak of Mt. Everest- his face now adorns New Zealands $5 bill.
