Auckland museum

Yesterday we went to the Auckland museum! They have a huge display of Maori artifacts, it was really cool. We paid extra to see a Maori performance, it was awesome!!!! The Maori peformers did songs and dances, we saw some games and fighting stances. Once, they were showing us how they fought using a club sort of thing. The warrior suddenly shot out, using this thing so fast you couldn't see it, while he was doing that with the weapon, he bellowed out a confrontation. It was so scary and startling I jumped a couple of inches of my chair! At the end they performed the Haka, the chant they would do before they went to battle. It was terrifying. The all-blacks (rugby) do it before each game, its sooooooooooo cool, look it up on youtube and youll see what I mean. Do it!!! (7 days till Christmas!)
