Words of the week

Words of the week is where we are given 4 different words and have to right a definition, synonym, antonym and a sentence for that word. We do the definition for the meaning of the word. A synonym is a word that means the same. An antonym is a word that means the opposite and for the sentence we try to put the word in to one. Here is my words of the week.

My Holiday Trip

In the holidays me and my family went on a trip. Since we are not allowed to travel out of New Zealand we went on a trip in New Zealand. The places we went to were Auckland, Queenstown and Christchurch. Some of the reasons we chose to go to Queenstown and Christchurch was because me and my brother's had never been to the South Island. We also chose to go to Queenstown because we have never seen snow before and we chose to go to Christchurch to see our cousins that we haven't seen for a long time.

In Auckland we went to the sky tower.  My parents say that we might have already been there before but we couldn't remember anything. When we were going up I was a bit scared because I don't really like going in elevators but it was worth it, cause when we got to the top the view was amazing. You could see so many different things.

I was super excited to go to Queenstown because we got to see the snow and ski. When I first felt the snow it was super cold but nice and soft. Skiing was my favourite it was super fun and I really enjoyed it. We also went in the gondolas one day up to the luge which was super fun but also a bit scary for me. 

We decided to drive to Christchurch from Queenstown, the ride was about 6 hours. When we got to Christchurch I was super excited to see my cousins that I hadn't seen in years. For most of our days in Christchurch we spent time with our family. It was a great trip.
