We went to Maranatha Recreation Camp with the high school students. We split
into two groups: high school students and presentation groups 1 and 2 and all
the others in the other group. I was a member of group 1 so I’ll write about
what group 1 did.
First we enjoyed rope and tree climbing. We walked on the tree branches and
ropes. At the end, we enjoyed a flying fox. They were scary to me but I really
enjoyed them.
Nest we ate some oranges, pineapple and biscuits for morning tea. They were
very delicious.
Then we enjoyed riding a big rope swing. We did it by lifting a person with
10 people. The 10 people pulled a rope hanging in a high place and a person
flew straight up in the air. It looked scarier than it was. I really enjoyed
it.
After that, we had lunch. We ate something like a tortilla. I wrapped ham,
cheese and some vegetables. It was delicious. Finally, we played a little game.
It was a game like baseball. We took on group 2. We had no time so we couldn’t
complete the game.
I can’t find my feet yet but I want to make the most of this study abroad.

It was sunny today. We went to Maranatha Recreation Camp. There we tried
rope and tree climbing. We wore a harness. I climbed a ladder. It was high.
First we walked on logs. My feet quivered. I was scared but it was fun. Second,
I walked on a log ladder. It was easier than walking on logs. Third, I walked
on a rope. It was the most difficult. I walked like a crab. I walked carefully.
Finally, I swung on a tarzan rope. It was really fun. I was so excited. It was like
a roller coaster.
Then I ate fruit and cookies for morning tea. The pineapple was very sweet,
the orange was very good. Everyone looked happy.
Then we tried high jumping. It used a rope and 11 people. One person wore a
harness and 10 people pulled the rope. This person flew up about 10 meters. It
was Fantastic! I was waving to everyone. I was so happy!
Then we ate tacos for lunch. I wrapped many things wiith a nan. It was tasty.
After lunch, we played a game. This game was like baseball. It used a gun and a
ball. It was really fun.
Tomorrow, we have presentations so I’ll go to bed early today.

We arrived in Australia and two days have passed. My host father is very
kind so I don’t have any problems now. First we visited Maranatha Recreation
Camp and did rope and tree climbing. It was a lot of fun, I want to do more. Lunch was delicious. I love
tomato so I put in a lot. After, we came back home and played with Chloe and
Jackson. They are my host family; they are small and very cute. Jackson was a
muddy monster. He had been playing in a pond and was muddy. When I played with
him, my clothes got very muddy and dirty. At diner, I ate a meat pie. It was a
little hard so I couldn’t cut it well with a knife. Then my host mother said,
“You need to use your muscles”. The staff at the camp said “muscle” a lot of times
too. Australian people use muscle a lot!? After that, I ate ice cream and
chocolate pudding. It was very, very sweet. I was surprised by that sweetness.
Lastly, I watched TV in the theatre room. The animation was “The Simpsons”.
That English was a little difficult for me but I understood a little. The scene
in which Homer, the father stabbed the wine pack with scissors and drank
without pausing was so funny. Today, I had a nice day. I want to have an even
nicer day tomorrow!

This
morning, we saw wild kangaroos. There were three kangaroos in the garden. I was
so excited. I took photos of the kangaroos. After that, we went to school with
our host father, Scott and our host brother, Matthew. Today’ program was
Maranatha Recreation Camp. The teachers said we had three activities but we
didn’t have much time, so we did only two activities. The first activity was to
make a bridge. The bridge was made of bamboo and tropes. We learned how to bind
the rope. The second activity was rope climbing in the trees. The trees were so
high. I was a little scared but also
interested. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it.
After we arrived at the house, we played basket with Matthew. Then his friend
came over. We played together. I couldn’t play but Mathew and his friend showed
us great shots. After diner we watched the movie, “Robin Hood”. It didn’t have
subtitles, so it wasn’t easy but it was very interesting. I want to talk with
my host family more tomorrow and to enjoy this trip.

My host family is very kind and my
host mother is very good at cooking, so the meals cooked by her are very
delicious and we are very happy.
Today, we did an outdoor
adventure. It was very fin but also scary. First, we built a bridge that was
made of wood and rope. Connecting the roped was difficult but we enjoyed it/
Second, we climbed trees and got
across from tree to tree. I was very afraid because it seemed easy to fall but
we enjoyed ourselves very much.
After the activities, Chinatsu and
I went to the supermarket. We walked there and bought the ingredients to cook
Japanese food, body soap and some other things. I’m looking forward to cooking
Japanese food for our host family. I hope they enjoy our cooking.

I have never had a wonderful
day like today. I think it made me more clever than yesterday. I will tell you
the story of today from the morning.
This morning, I got up
at about 7:15, My host mother came to my room to get me up. Then, I went to the
sink and wash my face, I changed my clothes in my room, and we ate breakfast.
There were cereals, and toast which is spread with honey. It was so
tasty.
After that, we went to
the front of the school, which is the place to wait. Many students arrived early.
Then, we went to the recreation camp by bus. There were high school
students, too. First, my group did bridge making. After, we climbed trees and
we walked did a ropes course. It was so fun. After that, we ate lunch. It was tacos
that were made of ham, salad, and dough; I ate an apple, too. Last, we came
back to school, and came back home.
Later, I played with my
host family's children and we ate dinner together. Dinner was meat pies and mashed vegetables. It was so
delicious. I enjoyed so much today. I hope I can have a good sleep.
