Student Teaching in Australia! : 10-2-2017

My Day:
- Woke up at 6:30 to go to yoga at 7:30 but it was at a different place then I thought so I went and had hot chocolate and a cinnamon roll at Starbucks.
- Sat at the 'wifi spot' and checked in with everyone
- Got picked up at 8:40; I almost got in with the wrong 'driver' but luckily the bus came then and I was able to hop on the correct one!
- Next I went on a 5 hour bus ride to Milford Sound. These were some of the facts I learned on the way;
*Lake Wakapuko is about 390 meters deep
*It formed from glaciers
*That area had had 3 ice ages
*The Dart glacier is only about 4 meters long now
*Milford Sound receives the most rain in average in all of New Zealand. On average 7 meters a year
*Deer, sheep, and beef/dairy farming
*The largest form of pollution is from the methane (animal farts).
- On the way, we stopped in Te Anau for something to eat and a bathroom break at 11:30-12
- More facts;
*Lake Te Anau is the largest in the southern island
- We stopped at Eglinton Valley Viewpoint for a quick 5 minutes to take pictures at 12:50
- Stopped at Mirror Lake at 1 pm
- Stopped at Knobs Flat for a bathroom break at 1:15 pm
- Stopped at The Chasm at 2:30 pm
- Got to Milford Sound and out on the boat at 3:10 pm. We had afternoon tea, and then I had a salad from Pita Pit as well
- We left again on the bus at 4:50 pm
- I finally got back to the YHA at 9 pm.
- I got ready for bed and went to bed at 10 pm.
