HOW TO BECOME A MOVIE STAR AT "PUZZLING WORLD"

(1) Get into the room and start acting. (2) Your actions are recorded. (3) Get out the room and watch the movie you are starring in. (4) Your dream to be a star in a sci-fi movie without any CGI finally came true. :)

THE WORLD IS SUCH A PUZZLING PLACE

3rd December 2013 ~ "Puzzling World" is actually a Science Centre that only focuses on ONE major sub-topic out of the thousands possible chapters from the Science/Physics books: OPTICAL ILLUSION. Here, Science comes alive and whatever you have seen in your books before unfold themselves in front of you in a much bigger and believable scale. Situated in Wanaka, an hour drive away from Queenstown, this is a place suitable for both the kids and adults. You can always explore and get involved with the exhibits or activities and if you have more time, you should try to get into the maze here, as I heard some people had spent hours trying to find their way out, but we did not as we had only an hour to spend.




something to do with gravity









suddenly I became a giant






 



now you can see where it will go :)


now you see it, now you don't






together forever and never to part

play all you can


my dream came true - I was a Superman
Even though I was never good in Physics when I was in school, I had enjoyed myself tremendously here. You don't have to get A+ for the subject to come here.

NEXT: Do not miss the video with two (famous) actors (by now) at "Puzzling World".

DRIVING AROUND QUEENSTOWN AND BEYOND

2nd December 2013 ~ We rented a car on the second day in Queenstown so we could venture out a bit. The places visited were Arrowtown and Glenorchy on Monday, and we went to Wanaka the next day. Mr. Hamzah was driving all the time (THANK YOU!), the roads were going uphill and downhill most of the time, and winding too. The weather was a bit too hot on those two days. But I was always happy to see the sun and the blue sky. We stopped a few times to take photos of the lakes and the mountains, we never got tired of doing that, and sometimes I just snapped the photos from inside the moving car. I wonder if you have grown bored looking at almost the same photos every time.

There's a video at the bottom part of this entry. Hope you will like it.
