Activity 2 + Bonus Activity - Week 1: Setting sail, Waka Ama

Dear Friend: It was awesome and scary at the same time. There was a lot of storms during the sail to the new land that we landed on recently, New Zealand. The water was as strong as if the there was a giant playing and splashing in the water. I was in the front of the canoe/waka and I wasn't scared one bit, well maybe. Our food got wet as soon as we got onto the water. so sooner or later, we started fish because we got hungry. We caught lots of fish. We've met lots of nice people who welcomed us into their homes and they even created houses for us. I'd reckon that this is the safest island we've been to other than the other islands. Well, see you later.

I would like to be in a Waka ama race because it looks fun and a very competitive race. I also have my reasons that would stop me from joining this race. reason 1: I dream to play other sports that don't include water. Reason 2: I pretty bad with the water and I can't swim. I'm kind of scared whirlpools as well. So it's kind a of yes and no.
