Today, we went to the St. Lukes Shopping mall. I like shopping very much, but I had little anxiety. That is fear of money. I didn't have confidence to use money easily. However, my anxiety was gone easily. Using money is easy. I really enjoyed shopping with my friends.
First, we ate break fast; sand witch, cake, orange juice. It was good but too big. We couldn't eat all. After that, we started shopping; we looked around from ground floor to first floor. There are many cloth shops, but we couldn't find good and cute cloth. Long time, we tried finding good one. Finally, my friend I bought one cloth.
Then, we ate an ice cream. I like Japanese food than that of NZ but, ice cream is delicious like Japanese. What's more to say, I like NZ' ice creams because one scoop is too enough and little cheap. Especially, I like mango taste. I ate mango ice cream.
From afternoon, we studied at Unitec University. We enjoyed conversation and game.
Today is also nice like yesterday!

Today, we went to Kelly Tarlton's Underwater World. Kelly Tarlton's is a public aquarium in Auckland, in NZ. It reproduced that the life of the South Pole on the 20th beginning of the century. We saw some stuff in those centuries like books, clothes, and heater and so on. We felt real life style of 20th century. I made a deep impression.
Next, we saw a lot of living fish and penguins. There is a tube tunnel, and fish are swimming on the outside calmly. We could see that view standing on the automatic road.
After that, we went to the penguin’s room. That penguin’s room is special room because they live only cold land. We visited them getting on the attraction. It was exciting attraction. We got on the attraction to separate some groups. Penguins were so cute, they stood in iceberg. There were some kinds of penguins.
Finally, we looked around a souvenir shop. We bought some souvenirs for our friends in Japan.
Today, I learned some fish's name. We went back to the Unitec at the afternoon, and started studying. Today, we talked about Kelly Tarlton's with our teacher.

Today, I went to Auckland City Tour and Sky Tower. Auckland City was so nice. There were very beautiful and many old buildings. I was excited that time. We went there at the morning.

After that, we went to Sky Tower. It is 328 meters and this tower is the tallest tower southern Hemisphere. There are two famous attractions.
One is Sky Jump. We can jump from height of 192 meter and we fall 14 seconds by per hour about 85 kilometers. It is little differs from bum gee jump; it is not lifted up to the top and bottom.
The other is Vertigo Climb. It is a little tour to goes up in the ladder for about 15 minutes up to the height about 300 meters as for the inside of the sky tower steeple.
But, I didn't try both of them because these seem scary. Moreover, we didn't have enough time to try them but, Sky Tower was good if I didn't do these two attractions. We enjoyed watching scenery and Sky City to use landscape. That scene was beautiful. I love this view. I thought it may more beautiful at the night. I want to sea night view.

Today was nice for me. This is first time for me to see Auckland City. I want to go there again.
