Cuddly Kiwi visits Wales

Tuesday 5th December
We found Cuddly Kiwi when Ellie and Harry opened the package.
Inside was a DVD, leters and Cuddly Kiwi. We found out who our pen pals were, mine is Georgia.
If you squeze Kiwi he makes a noise, he has a long nose, he has a Welsh and New Zealand flag attached to his foot.

Myself and Cuddly Kiwi had a good time together.
In our house we took a picture of Kiwi and us in our Tai Kwon Do outfits.
We watched TV together and played, at dinner time our bird Simba and Kiwi watched us eating.
After dinner we all sat down to watch some more TV, but we could not hear it because Kiwi was talking all the time.
Bedtime came and Cuddly Kiwi slept in bed with me, so at least it stopped him talking.
So we slept well afetr all.

Our visiting Kiwi had a great weekend. He went up to London on Friday with Bethan, to see the sites. Bethan was positively bursting with th news of their fab weekend.
First they went down the River Thames on a boat as far as Tower Brdige ( Kiwi felt a little sea sick apparently)

Bethan, Kiwi and her family including Bethan's cousin who is in most of the photographs, then went to The Tower of London to see The Crown Jewels, while they were there they met a Beefeater ( Guard) who was originally from New Zealand and had a Kiwi pin inside his hat !!

The journey continued with a trip on The London Eye, from the top Kiwi couldn't quite see New Zealand, but he did look very hard - he got a bit light headed from being so high up, and felt much better with his feet on the ground.

Later in the day they went to The Houses of Parliament where Kiwi looked up at the Tower of Big Ben


Kiwi did visit Buckingham Palace and sat on the wall outside, there was aflag on the flag pole, but we are not sure that The Queen was in, Kiwi also went to Hamleys the biggest Toy Shop in the world, here he found some friendly cuddly animals to play with...
He finished his journey with a visit to Platform 9 3/4 at Kings Cross Station - the platform that Harry Potter and his friends use to get to Hogwarts... wow what a busy weekend, no wonder he and Bethan were bursting to tell us about their adventures today in school.
