My impression of Australia



My opinion about Australia is that it is a unique country and has lots of Kangaroos and the nasty, poisinous looking cane toads, and koala bears to see. And I would travel because it has many travel options there and to go and see all the modern cities and multicultural background, and the aboriginals have a drug and alcohol problems.




There are some things about this country that I dislike is the hot climate, you cant go anywhere without water which is good but you`ll get sunburnt like crazy probably. There is 1 more thing I dont like is the cane toads.For 1 thing there poisonous and they will get on your decks n such crazy creatures.




Yes, I would love to travel to Australia because I dont get out much, and to get away on my own for an adventure. so I can see all the unique art, all the unique wildlife. The thing that suprised me is that it has 6 countires in it. And also has a british herritage with sitll the aborigonals are there too so then you can iteract with them get to know them wat they do and did to survive.

#1. What is Geocaching?
Geocaching is a treasure hunt, where small treasures are takin and placed in different areas in the countrysides or other interesting places.


#2. What can you leave as a treasure?

U are able to find little bags of goodies(candy) in boxes.

#3. What should you not leave?

U cannot place items like matches, weapons, food, or any other dangerous objects so people can find.

#4. Why is this a popular activity?

This is a popular activity because you can use a GPS to find interesting things anywhere around the world, and some schools have these expensive pieces of equipment for kids teenagers to use. And it is easy to find ur way around(the world).

#5. Can you think of any negative affects of geocaching?

I think it is good because all the kids who use them to find these treasures are exploring the world and seeing new places.
