Saturday, 21st
On Thursday we crossed the Southern Alps. It took hours. We drove through Arthur’s Pass. Then we stopped to look at the mountains. The tops of the mountains looked a bit like black and white pictures, with their bright white snow and big black rocks. We stayed one night in Greymouth and bought some books there.
Yesterday we drove to see the famous Franz Josef Glacier. We left our things in the hotel and walked to the glacier. It took a long, long time to walk over the stones. When we got to the wall of the glacier, we were very thirsty (口渴的). We broke off a small bit of ice and tasted it. It was much nicer than the ice from the fridge (冰箱).
Today we drove to the Fox Glacier. Someone had told Dad about a lake on the way so we went there first. We had to walk through a dark forest to find Lake Matheson. It was a very cold lake because all its water came from the glacier. By the time we got to the Fox Glacier valley (山谷), it was too late to reach the glacier itself. We stayed in a hotel and found some green-brown birds there. The owner of the hotel told us they are called keas.
Tomorrow we have to get up early to walk to the top of Fox Glacier. I am looking forward to that because the top of the glacier is all deep snow.

Snow leopards are big cats. They live in the mountains of Central Asia. Snow leopards have beautiful, thick fur. It protects them from the cold in the high mountains. The snow leopard is one of the most endangered cats in the world. The number of snow leopards is becoming smaller and smaller. There are two main reasons. First, to make money, humans kill them for their fur. Second, humans take away their lands and forests. As a result, they can’t find enough food to eat.
It’s time to protect snow leopards. First, we shouldn’t buy the things made of snow leopard fur. Second, we should advise the government to build more nature parks for snow leopards.

Snow leopards are big cats. They live in the mountains of Central Asia. Snow leopards have beautiful, thick fur. It protects them from the cold in the high mountains. The snow leopard is one of the most endangered cats in the world. The number of snow leopards is becoming smaller and smaller. There are two main reasons. First, to make money, humans kill them for their fur. Second, humans take away their lands and forests. As a result, they can’t find enough food to eat.
It’s time to protect snow leopards. First, we shouldn’t buy the things made of snow leopard fur. Second, we should advise the government to build more nature parks for snow leopards.
