★New Zealand★

We searched about seasons of New Zealand and Japan.

★Winter★
◎Climate◎

Cold winter comes to New Zealand from June to August. The temperature drop to only about 10 degree even winter and the temperature in level land hardly drops to minus degrees. So the snow is rare in level land. This is different from Japan. Almost every area in North Island has a lot of rain in winter. In south island, there are snows so people can enjoy skiing. The south island is colder than the north island and there are areas where are no rain.

◎Sports◎
Mountains snow very much so we can enjoy winter sports. New Zealand has mainly 4 skis areas. People enjoy skis and snowboard with a grand nature in the background.

◎Festival◎
One of the festivals in winter, there is a “queenstown winter festival”. This festival is held on June 23 to July 3. Many people come to there from all over the world every year and they celebrate the start of winter. In queenstown, this festival is the most exciting festival. People who ware waiting for the skis season make a fuss. A live is held and fireworks are displayed at the opening party. And also parade is held and they enjoy compete the snowboard or jet boat. The others over 70 events are held, for example, contest of the carving in snow, dog race, dinner. In Japan, we don’t celebrate winter grandly so I think NZ people are looking forward to coming winter very much.

★Movie★

I want to recommend you this movie. The name of the movie is "Suberanaihanashi of Hitoshi Matsumoto". This is a comedy movie. Some of the entertainers talked together about their interesting stories. Their interesting stories are all exciting story and not boring. Hitoshi Matsumoto who belong to "downtown", is a leader of the program and other entertainers appear, for example, Tihara Junior, Daisuke Miyagawa, Hosshan and so on. It was released about 10 series until recently. Every time I watch this DVD, I laugh very hard, holding my sides. It's very interesting so you should watch it!!

I want to recommend you one more movie. The name of the movie is "Charlie's Angels". It's an American movie and it's a action movie. It was showed in 2000 and a sequel to this movie was showed in 2003. The story is that three women of detectives fight against many bad person and solve many problems. Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, Lucy Liu appears on this movie. They act cool woman and they are fearless. When I saw this movie, I was overwhelmed. Sometime it makes me laugh because they disguise in unique clothes to hide their identity so it has also interesting parts. It's very exciting and they are very cool. If you watch it you will crazy about this movie.

On arriving at Tokyo I went to the hotel to eat lunch. It was buffet style and the taste was very good. I and my mother were content with the foods. After lunch I went to Harajyuku with alone. I walked in the Takeshita road where are many shops. There were many cute and cheap clothes. I bought many clothes, for example, t-shirts, short pants, accessories and so on. I liked Takashita road very much because I can shopping. In the night I ate dinner with my mother in the hotel. Next morning my mother went to Crispy Cream Doughnuts and she bought doughnuts for me. I wanted to eat the shop’s doughnuts so I was very exciting. It was very delicious. After breakfast I went to Shibuya with alone. I went to 109 in Shibuya that is a cloth shop.
