    Jean Batten and Amelia Earhart were such inspiring women and achieved great things in life, they are definitely women to look up to!
    You found some very interesting information on these women, what interested you about them the most?

    I noticed that you found out that Jean Batten always took a silk dress with her on her flights. What would you bring on a flight with you?

    1. Kia Ora Charlotte,
      Yes, Jean Batten and Amelia Earhart were such inspiring women! The thing that I found most interesting about them was that Jean Batten took a silk dress with her on flights. I have no clue what I would bring on a flight with me, but maybe one thing I would take is a picture of my family - My 2 grandparents on my Mum's side, then my other 2 grandparents on Dad's side, Uncle Adam & Reneeand then Dad, Mum, Me, My brother and I and our 2 dogs. They all mean the world to me. I would also take something like for e.g - my camera because I love photography and last year for Christmas I received a Fine Pix S2980 (18 Zoom) Fuji film camera. I also have a tripod. And maybe I should do a blog post about my photography??? What would you bring on a flight???
      Ma Te Wa,

    2. Kia Ora Hayley,

      I think that taking a photo of your family would be a very nice idea, because then you would always be reminded of the love and support they give you. I also like your idea of bringing your camera! Photography is so cool! I would really enjoy reading a post and looking at some of the photography you have done.

      I think that I would also bring a photo of my family along on a flight, or maybe I would bring my favourite necklace, because it is very special to me and reminds me of lots of good memories.
