`Activity 3: Going, going….gone [10 points]
Over the years, scientists have made some surprising discoveries. One of
these discoveries is that we have entire cities (e.g. Jakarta, Indonesia and Venice, Italy) that are slowly sinking into the ocean. Scientists believe that, one day, the cities will disappear completely under the water. Yikes!
Some of the residents (people living in the cities) have taken pictures of their neighbourhoods and written stories about their lives in order to make a record of what ‘life was like’ in their city before it disappeared.
Let’s imagine that New Zealand was going to sink to the bottom of the ocean next week (Eek!). Before it sinks you are asked to write a blog post telling people what life was like in New Zealand in 2018.
On your blog, post a description of life in New Zealand in 2018. Please remember that the people who read your post will have never been to New Zealand or even seen a picture so it is your job to ‘paint a picture’ of New Zealand using your words. You can also post pictures, if you wish. Be sure to fully attribute the pictures.
Well for you guys,girls,women and men New Zealand is the best place to live it doesn't have that much crimes. It’s a beautiful place to live. Awesome places to eat and delicious food. Beautiful homes and can’t forget the tallest building in New Zealand is actually in Auckland and the name of the building is the Sky Tower and Auckland is were I live so again New Zealand is a beautiful place to live.

New Zealand (NZ) is a wonderful place to live, isn't it? We're very lucky. :) Where's your favourite place in NZ? Mine would be either the Bay of Islands (where I grew up) or Queenstown. I love visiting those two places.
Bye for now! :)
