Holiday Recount

Term 4 week 1

Holiday recount!

Where we went - On the last Friday of school mum picked me up 15 minutes early so we could feel like we were on holiday mode, and head to Ohope. We decided that it would be easier to stay at one friend's house for 5 days (Friday to Tuesday) instead of scrambling about from one friend's house to another.

Who we stayed with - As I explained we stayed at one friend's house for the 5 days we were in Ohope for. My good friends we stayed with was my BFF Holly Jennings, her brother Samuel and her lovely parents Mark and Gayle. Holly is my age so we play together, Samuel is Willis’s age so that’s covered and Shirley tags along with Holly and me.

What we did - Holly’s family were going to head to America a few days after we left, so that meant that they had to stay in good health. They weren’t allowed to go swimming in the ocean but we still had great fun, we strode along the sandy shore and made a sand castle island with Donald Trump's sandy shore wall around it. Me and Holly had fun feeding our baby dolls with flour and water to look like milk, it doesn’t taste like milk though. (Don’t taste it, It's disgusting!)

The end of Ohope - On the last day of our Ohope adventure we were all knackered so you can imagine what we were like spending 5 days with the same friends, cranky. That’s right, not the normal us. So it was nice sleeping the long 3 hour drive back home.

I also experienced the Luge! It was amazingly fun, I got over my fear of doing the whole thing pretty quick. The only thing with the ski lift is that it can stop, and there’s no enclosed space you just hang there.

That was a part of my holiday.
