Australia!

We opened five packages from Australia! Flat Stanley travelled to Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Karratha! What an experience!

Flat Stanley visited Mines in Karratha:



Dreamworld In Brisbane:



And beautiful beaches in Melbourne and Sydney:



We noticed that there are many similarities and differences between New Zealand and Australia. Here are some of the ideas we came up with:

Similarities:

1. We have a harbour and a boat dock in Wellington.

2. The city of Brisbane looks similar to Wellington. They both have tall buildings and busy roads.

3. We have a Zoo in Wellington with lots of animals just like in Sydney.

4. We have beautiful beaches as well!

5. The main language in both places is english!

Some Differences:

1. In Australia there are koalas, kangaroos, crocodiles and snakes!

2. There are different road signs like ones that tell you to watch out for kangaroos!

3. They have different sayings like, "G'day mate!"
