• Wanaka, New Zealand (by Andrew)

    January 30, 2023 in New Zealand ⋅ ⛅ 64 °F

    We went to New Zealand and went swimming in lake Wanaka. We saw the famous Wanaka tree. I got to jump off a pier that was very high from the water. It was terrifying, but awesome.
    We hiked Mt Iron, Hawea Flat Track (very flat), Diamond Lake & Rocky Mountain. Mt Iron is an awesome hike to do with kids because it’s only 30 minutes up and 20 minutes down. Hawea Flat Track is a very long hike that is in the sun without shade, so maybe do this in the fall or winter, not summer (would not do with kids in the summer). Diamond Lake & Rocky Mountain hike had a ton of shade and there’s a pretty cool diamond-shaped lake. It’s a very long hike, so I would recommend going to look out with kids and not to the top.
    We also got to go to this trampoline class. It was super fun because you get to do pretty fun tricks like flips. I hope you can go to New Zealand too, if you do I hope you love it in New Zealand.
