Hello everybody, today we went snorkeling. We saw some HUGE fishes. Some were at least a meter! We also saw LOTS of coral!!!!!!!!!! It was good fun . We went on a really fast boat . The place we went snorkeling is called pigeon island, because of the exotic bird species, which are only found on that island, nowhere else in the world. They are about as rare as a Takahae. Did I mention that we saw lots of fish? We saw Dori, Scar and even Bob! It's like tank gangs summer vacation home! More soon,Nick

Hi guys. Today we went to the cave temples. There are 5 temples. Each one has at least one statue of Buddha in each temple. Buddha was  a teacher. He tought people how to live there life well. In buddhist religion,their goal is to reach Nevada . Nevada is like buddhist heaven. You see, Buddha made 5 rules for his followers to,ah,follow . One,for example, was no drinking. Another was don't kill animals. If you followed those 5 rules, you would be one step closer to Nevada. Then there is another set of rules, and another set, and another and, well, you get the idea. When you've done all the rules, you get this crowny thing called the inlightenment. It means you are destined to go to Nevada. Buddha is the first person to go to Nirvada. More soon, Nick.

 Hi everyone. Today we went to the elephant orfphanage. I got to feed the baby one.  I Think their trunk is lots like a hand. I'll tell you why. The muscular district makes the transmiting device blah blah blah.....................................na, just kidding. Its because the trunk has a hangy over bit that enables it to grasp onto things, such as fruit.Pretty cool, huh?
