**Amazing Race Reflection**

__WALT: reflect on our experience of the Amazing Race.__

__**Day One - Te Puna - Katikati - Waihi - Karangahake Gorge**__

My team for the Amazing Race is Sam, Rose, Oliver, James & I. Our Parent driver was Kiri Randall. She was kind and encouraging. After every event she would give us some lollies and when we finished the race she got us a milkshake. The thing that I liked the most was the jog through the Karangahake Gorge because it was fun and interesting. I also enjoyed the other events like finding the mural’s at Katikati. The most frustrating thing was finding the sculptures at Te Puna Quarry and then their was no photos left. It was funny at the end of the day because when James was i the car he had no socks on and he took of his shoes, it stunk the hole car down. We came 10th and I think that our team worked really well on every event I enjoyed Day one.

__**Day Two - Papamoa - Te Puke - Rotorua**__

Our parent was Jayne King she was cool and very smart. Jayne helped us with the orientating and she got us lollies too. The thing that I liked the most this day was The aMAZEme Maze at the end. It was fun.their was a patten that I found out. The funniest thing was when Oliver and James were asleep at the back and we were taking photos of them. I disliked it when the other teams followed us on the orientating because they were always their. I enjoyed eating the Kiwi fruit because I didn’t have breakfast that day. It was delicious. We came 18th and I think we could of work a bit better on the orientating. I enjoyed that day I was cool.

__**Day Three - Sulphur Point Marina - Sanford's - Earth2Ocean - Master Chicken - Tauranga City Library - The Art Gallery - The Elms**__

Our parent this day was Rose’s mum. She was kind and competitive. I liked her. The thing that I enjoyed the most was eating the Fish n‘Chips that we made. It was so delicious. The thing that I disliked the most was when I had to put my hand in in the freezing cold water to get our next clue. The funniest thing was when Sam was singing in the car. I think we worked really good on finding the photos at Sulphur Point Marina because we got out of their very quick. It was frustrating when Abby Coppers team passed us. We came 4th we worked awesomely great on the events. I loved the Amazing Race and I hope next year we get to do it again.

**Excellent reflection T.J. Great honesty and well done on a fantastic placing on Day Three. I am glad you had a such an awesome time on the Amazing Race. Nice voice recording too!** **Miss Crone :)**
