Memphis and Eddyville

So let's talk about Memphas.we went to the zoo there and let me just tell you that this zoo was different to the zoo in Auckland. it had lots of different animals like camels, panthers, polar bears,snow leopards and black bears and wolves.So now you get the idea .


 this is me with some cuddly Pandas 

this is me riding a Camel that was very bumpy 

After that we went to a museum and there was this walking through time . it started with the beginning of time and went through to the modern age.

 Now we are  in Eddyville,Kentucky. Yesterday we went to a place where you can find lots of Bison and Elk then we went to a wild life refuge and we saw lots of rescued animals like owls and snakes then we saw a show about baby animals and how to look after them if they need help, we also released some rabbits to the wild so the predators can eat them

Natchez, Mississippi


Well now I'm in Natchez Mississippi but I want to tell you one thing. It RAINED when we were leaving Destin and not just the ordinary spring showers you get in Auckland but the thunder storms you get in Destin (and that's right I said thunder, not to mention lightning).

Now on to Natchez we are in B&B (bed and breakfast). This morning we went to a historical home called Stanton Hall. We got a tour of this very large house all by our selves (and no we did not book a private tour). Then we had lunch at a place called Slick Ricks (I had a salad).

Then we went to a place called Longwood . A guy called Haller Nutt started building the house 1860 along with lots of builders from the north but then of course when the civil war started the builders went back home as now they were fighting. He died shortly after and the house was and still is to this day not finished. After that we went to two churches one to see old photos the other to see stained glass.

Destin

After we went to Orlando we went to Port St. Lucie. We didn't do much but we did go on a boat ride and saw lots of animals that I have have mentioned before.

Then we went to a place called St. Petersburg and we had to walk a long way to get to these gardens that used to be a lake after that  we went to a place for kids and there was a thing in it called the touch tunnel which was a tunnel in the dark and me and my dad went in it. Then we went to the Dali museum. Dali was a strange man, well he wasn't a strange person, but his paintings were.

Now we are in a place called Destin. Yesterday we went on a boat ride and went shelling plus we went to the beach and we went to the pool about half an hour ago.


  This is the wishing tree near the Dali museum.

Disney

This is me with Donald duck at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida (not to be confused with Disney Land in California).

I started at Magic Kingdom (the most magical place on earth) the first ride we went to was called SPACE MOUNTAIN it was a scary roller coaster in the dark.

We also went on the Tomorrow Land speedway where you go on a car and you have to steer your car to make sure you don't bump into the side of the road. A while later we went on a ride called Peter Pan's flight where you fly over London (and then Neverland).

And now I'm just going tell you are my favourite things as I am running out of time. Then we went to a haunted house and it had photos of a woman and a man but then they flash and the man's head disappears.

Now moving on to Animal Kingdom we went on river rapids (where we got soaked) we also went on a jungle safari. Then we went to Epcot but there was nothing worth talking about there.

Now are the photos.

This is me with Goofy


This is on the safari.
