SPACE

Space isn't it interesting? Such an amazing topic, so much to learn and do and sometimes... (really confusing.)
But anyway lets cut to the chase, one of the things that interest me most is the fact that Venus is apparently closer to Earth than Mars! When I was first told this (like a few days ago during our space topic) I was amazed and by the looks of things so does the rest of the class, they're even writing blog posts on it like me!   

Mars's orbit

Venus's orbit

So apparently Venus is 42 million kilometers away from the Earth at its closes point, but 258 million kilometers away from its most distinct point. Mars on the other hand is 56 million kilometers away from its closes point.













































Good Bye!

My Holiday

You may not know where this but this is where my family and I stayed for 3 nights.

This is Martinborough, and just down the main road a wee bit was the cottage we stayed at for 3 nights.

We drove up here by car to this little place by Graytown. It was only 1h and a bit away from our home in wellington. The first few days were practically chilling, having barbecues with family friends and looking at the shops in Graytown and exploring the parks and streets of Martinborough. 

To sum it up it was a great little retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city.

-And to all you who went away on Holiday I hope you had a great time!

See you next time :)
