Funny Things

So I've noticed that many things have different names in New Zealand. Erasers are called rubbers, crayons are called jovies, and cookies are called biscuits haha! The accent is also an interesting thing because sometimes it feels like I'm speaking a different language. The other day, I asked my host dad what their god daughter was doing in the evening, and he looked very confused saying, "We don't have a guard dog." =) It's funny to try to understand what each of us is saying! I figured that I would add a few pictures of my school, and the plants that are in the yard of my host family. I'll definitely be taking more!

Here are my school and classroom:



Here are pictures of my backyard:
