Hi everyone,
so sorry it has been a while since we last 'Blogged' but we have been very busy! So far we have had 3 nights and 4 days here with Lorna, Sanford, Tegan and Little Leah and it has been all go!
When we were in LA everything was in English or Spanish. Now we are in Canada we hear and see things in English and French! Loving hearing the languages and hearing people using them too.
We are living with the family at their lovley home in South Terwilligar. The residents are; Lorna, Sanford, Tegan, Leah, Carter, Jack and Rose!
From the pictures, can you see what Rose is?She is a Chilean Rose Hair Tarantula Spider and she is very big!!! Both Shane and I were a little bit scared to touch her at first - Shane more than me believe it or not, but Tegan reassured us that she was harmless and wouldn't hurt us. He was right. Tegan also put Rose upside down and showed us her fangs - they were HUGE! I now know not to upset her in any way!
The House is really lovely and the family have only been at this residence for a couple of weeks. There is still a lot of construction going on in their street. We have been for a 'ticky tour' all over the neighbour hood and it is just as you see on t.v - suburbin living - a lot like Desperate Housewives! Beautiful houses, lovely sections - but small, just perfect!
The first night we were here we got to see Tegan play lacross - this was very interesting because this is a game that is not common in New Zealand. The game is played in a ice hockey arena - but not on ice - and Tegan had to wear a helmet and padding all over his body. He had a very special stick which he used to catch the ball - he wasn't allowed to use his hands at all. The team then had to try to toss the ball from their sticks to each other and then into a very small net at the end of the rink! It was a very fast paced game and so much fun - his team won 6 goals to 1 - GREAT game and Tegan played especially well since his Uncle Shane and Rak were watching!
Keep tuned for our next blog!
Rak & Shane.
