For this activity I had to imagine that I am visiting on the national holiday of the country I chose ( the country I chose was Mexico). I then had to tell what would I eat, see and do on that day.
If I visited Mexico on their national holiday I think I would like to try a Mexican dish called Enchilada. I would want to go and see the parades that day. I would like to participate in the folklore dancing.

Hi AJ that dance sounds really cool but could you explain some things about it? keep it up.
ReplyDeleteKia ora Aminiasi,
ReplyDeleteI have just come back from my holiday this week and loved coming to your blog again and seeing how much work you have achieved over summer! You must be very proud of yourself:-) I have been holidaying in Bali and had Mexican for dinner twice while I was there. I really like Mexican food, my favourite is tacos. Have you eaten enchilada's?
Tania
Hi AJ - Yum! Enchiladas really are delicious! I tihnk that you will love them. I also think that you will really like tacos, nachos, quesadillas and fajitas. I see from Tania's post that she loves tacos and was able to have some Mexican-style dinners in Bali. I wonder if she had tacos?
ReplyDeleteI sometimes make tacos for my family here in New Zealand. I grew up eating tacos because Mexican food is quite popular in Canada. There are hundreds of Mexican restaurants doted all through the country. My favourite is a chain of restaurants called 'Lone Star.' They have the same name as the 'Lone Star' restaurants here in New Zealand but the food is quite different. I have to admit that I was really disappointed when I first arrived in NZ and saw a sign for 'Lone Star.' I thought that they were the same chain as I was accustomed to in Canada and got really excited for some chicken quesadillas only to find out what they don't serve quesadillas in NZ. I was so gutted!
Oh well, I am very lucky because I can always visit a Lone Star when I go back to Canada to visit!
I hope that you're able to try some tacos, quesadillas and enchiladas one day here in NZ. They are pretty amazing!
Cheers,
Rachel :)
