Don’t worry. I was safe during the shooting. I was up a volcano on a field trip far away instead. :)

Yo peeps I was silent last few days because I was on a trip to the Tongariro National Park with my Geography class for school. It was really fun and we did the Tongariro crossing! The camp had no free wifi and I don’t have a phone lol.

Incase you were concerned (idk if you were, I haven’t finished checking all my notifications yet), the mass shooting happened in Christchurch (I live near Wellington, that’s quite far away) and I’m not a Muslim.

What happened in Christchurch is extremely unusual for New Zealand, and is highly devastating. I just checked stuff.co.nz and pretty much all the articles on the front page are related to this shooting, so yeah I guess if you wanna know more details, go there lol. #PrayForChristchurch

Here are some pics of my trip (At least the ones without people or geography stuff in them)

Wow! Look at this 2797m high volcano!

Yes, that is how heavy it rained on the first day. XD

Skip to next day; geography stuff

A water fall

Skip to next day, the Tongariro crossing

Somewhere half way up devil’s staircase

Ok I’ll have to finish this tomorrow good night

Disclaimer: Mods, if you feel this shooting is a bit controversial, I can remove it from this forum if you like. :)

    Yup. One in the wild, a few in zoos and wild life parks, and one dead next to a track on Kapiti Island. @Minecraftpoweer
