The Museum of History

Wow Picton museum!  So much history! So much to learn! so much to see. I think I will look at the settlers side first and then the maori side. After I looked at the settlers I went to the maori side   just like I said. But what I did not tell you is why I went down to the maori side. Well I will tell you. I went down there because our topic at the moment is Waikawa bay. When I was in that section I learnt a lot. Some of  the things were that some of  the people in our class are or could be related, to some of  the people's photos on the wall in the museum. I also learnt that people used to to do whaling but not because they want to they had to for a living. But they have stopped now because there are about 1000 left which mite seem a lot but believe me there was a lot more. I had a great day. I learnt a lot, I hope I can go there again .
