DAY 2: Protecting Our Own
Activity 1: A Flying Fox
New Zealand has some of the most beautiful forests in the world. Both New Zealanders and tourists, alike, enjoy walking through these forests. Unfortunately, constantly walking through forests can damage the plants and animals (flora and fauna) that live there. In an attempt to protect the local flora and fauna, an eco-tourism company in Rotorua came up with an idea. The Rotorua Canopy Tours Company designed a series of ziplines that sit above the forest canopy (top). People can ‘zip’ from one section of the forest to another, looking down on the beautiful natural areas below. To see what ziplining looks like, check out this video.
I have tried ziplining and I really enjoyed it, however, I must admit that I was pretty scared to try it at first. How would you feel if you had the chance to go ziplining in Rotorua?
On your blog, tell us how you would feel about going ziplining in Rotorua. Try to use some descriptive words (adjectives) and action words (verbs) in your post!.
If I was going to try Ziplining in Rotorua, I would be really really scared. Ziplining is the some thing as flying fox but I think that flying fox is more better than Ziplining because, it's not really that high. Ziplining is high, long and also fast, it would be fun but really scary at the same time.
Hi Helena,
ReplyDeleteI think the flying fox is basically a kids version of the zip line, it's very fun but since I am kind of scared of heights it would be pretty scary.
Great work and keep it up
