Wanaka - Other Fun Things

After two very active days, the kids needed a lower energy activity. 

So we stopped by Puzzling World. 

This was a fun place full of optical illusions, puzzles and just random fun stuff.

Then later we went to see Moana 2 at a local movie theater.


This movie theater was brilliant. It was small and had mostly couches to sit in, but what made it extra special was that before the movie started, you could order freshly baked cookies. Then when the movie stopped for intermission, they brought them to you. They were huge. And they were still warm. 

Somebody needs to replicate this in Lynchburg. I would watch waaaay more movies out in a theater if they did. 



Warm cookies for the win!

Another note, watching Moana 2 while New Zealand surrounded my New Zealand school kids was special. 


A final note: We all LOVED Wanaka. I would definitely return here and spent more time.

They did at this one. I don't if that's normal, or just because this was a small boutique kind of theater, but I loved it. It gave us a chance to talk things over and, of course, eat cookies!
