  1. Hey dude!
    Great work with your reading! I hope you enjoyed reading about captain Cook today and learnt some NZ history. Do you think that joining the Navy is something you might do when you are 18?
    For question 7 Cook was killed because he kidnapped a Hawaiian chief. Well done with all your other questions as they are all correct... here is a cheeky random question for you; Do you know who the ship 'Enterprise' belongs to?

  3. Bonjour Bryce. It is good to see you putting up more blogs. My ancestors came to New Zealand in 1842 and it took them 110 days to get here! That is almost 4 months. They said it was a quick passage! (another name for a trip). Have you looked at a map to see where the islands are? Au revoir. :)
