SLJ/Summer Learning Journey - Day 1 of Activity 1

Welcome Viewers to my blog,

Today the task is we have to imagine that we are going on a canoe trip for 3 week on a Hokule’a or Hikianalia. We have to pack out own food to last us. Our master navigator Nainoa Thompson is going to take us to Aotearoa in New Zealand.

The food I will bring has to not rot so I can last and not be hungry. And to make this more challenging I didn't ate anything before I came and I was very hungry.  And this is set in 2019 not going to be back in the ancient times because the I can't think of 10 foods in the ancient times.

The first food I will bring and eat is Spanish bread so later on it won't rot. And I can eat it when we set sail. And  by the way I made it at home before coming to the canoe.

The second thing I will bring is dried fruit. Its because its cheap to make and you just need to buy fruit and dried it. Another reason why I picked this is because it is good for you and it won't rot. But the drying process takes longer and more painful to do.

The third thing I will bring is canned sauage from the philippines. But you can also get it here in New Zealand. The store is called Big T they sell asian food. This sausage is already cooked and you just need to microwave it. But you can eat it without microwaving it.

Here is the link to where to buy it.

The forth thing I will bring is rice. Rice is very yummy when its paired with some food. Rice takes up to 4 to 6 day to expire so I can eat it today/the forth day. Well I will tell you tomorrow what I packed its very yummy.

The fifth thing I will bring is Ground Meat. The reason why I want to bring ground meat is because they can last up to 1 week before getting expire. And I tasted it and it's very yummy when it comes to eating it with rice.

The sixths thing I would like to bring is noodles because it can last for a very long time. It's say that it can last for 2 or 1 years. But we need to cook it first but there is a fire on the boat and a metal thing that can help me cook it. 

You can buy it in PAKnSave. 

The sevenths thing that I will get is Potatoes

If you store potatoes at about 40 ºF and in the dark they can last up to four months. And they are going to be yummy when you eat them. And I can store them in the dark 40 ºF because I can put it on a metal pot. And they are not that expansive.

The eighths thing I will bring is chocolate. It's yummy and it can help you last for a little bit longer. But it can melt if the weather is very hot but it can last for about 2 years. But it doesn't give as much hunger back to you.

The ninths thing I would bring is canned beans. It's because it can last up to 5 years. And it would be nice having it for the journey because it will last a long time so I can have lot's of it and it wouldn't expire until 5 or less years.

The last thing that I will buy is dough and water so I can make flat bread without it expiring. And there is fire there so I can make it. In the video they used some modern stuff but we can make it without using those stuff like what he said you can use the rock.

Here how you make flat bread.
