My Trip To the Antarctic Centre

Yesterday I went to the International Antarctic Centre to be a penguin keeper for the day.

I got to go into lots of areas that the public don't get to go in including the penguin enclosure. The penguins have to have a vitamin tablet everyday and I had to put a pretend tablet in a dead fish. I had gloves on but it was still very gross! I also watched a 4D movie and go in the ice room to experience an ice storm. I got to pet the huskies too. They were SO cute! I also got a ride in the hagglund.

So a very busy start to the holidays!

  1. Kia ora Harry,
    What a great day you had at the Antarctic Centre, how did you manage to be a keeper for the day? I have worked with Little Blue Penguins and Yellow Eyed Penguins when I used to live in Dunedin. I agree feeding penguins dead fish is a bit gross. It is amazing just how big a fish that they can eat and they swallow it whole. Did you get bitten by the penguins as I have and it really hurt?
    What was your favourite part of the day and why?
    Nga mihi,
    Mark
