Hey Guys!! Since tests are coming up, I have been studying immensely so I haven't had the time to do much this week as well as last week. However, I am happy to announce though that I have attended my first rugby game!! I went with two of my super good friends and one of them actually plays for the UOA rugby academy so she filled me in on what was happening! I learned so much from the game through her and it is honestly one of the most intense sports to watch up close. Even watching the spectators was fun because they were super into the game as well, screaming and waving flags when the Blues (Auckland's Home Team) scored. Additionally, I also went to the Auckland zoo in search of New Zealand Birds! And I was not disappointed. This zoo was much larger than the zoo back at home and I was so stoked to see my first kiwi. Sadly though, I was not able to take pictures of the kiwis since their enclosure was in a dark room. But it makes sense since they are nocturnal birds! However, one bird that did capture my attention was the Kea bird! These are by far one of the most unique birds that I've ever met. They are typically found on the South Island of New Zealand but what makes them so interesting is that they are known to dismantle car parts like your windshield wipers and bite through rubber. There are even warning signs posted in certain areas to beware of these birds!
