My Holidays

 On Friday the 16th my cousins and my family met at the Wainui surf club for a play on the sand. When we got there, there was a crystal clear lagoon just waiting for us. On the side there was a small River of water trickling down to the ocean. (Luckily I brought my togs)


Me and my cousins played in the water all day, I brought my boogie board and Clem pulled me all the way down the stream at top speed. Then, on a sharp turn, Clem Suddenly jumped on to the bank and the board swerved into the bank and I face-planted in the sand flying forward. It was so funny I tried doing it on Ursula but when I stopped she rolled off the board and down to the ocean. I also threw wet seaweed on my Fiske’s back for splashing water over me. 

Then it became a game of stealing seaweed girls v boys. Me, Elke, and Ursula crept along the bottom of the lagoon like crocodiles. Then, we ran across the sand and stole the seaweed off Clem, Fiske and Gjord. Then I guarded the pile of seaweed like a guard dog crouching over the pile swinging my arms.


When it was time to go, we all went to Auntie Heidi's house for a play. Ursula and Elke fought over me so I ran to the boys and we all hid. It became a game of hide and go seek tag. Clem tricked the girls telling them I had gone to the chickens when I was down in the creek. 


When Ursula and Elke found out, they went down the steep bank. Slid down and got ready in the tree. Then her butt got wet on the rocks in the creek. But by the time Ursula got down we were long gone down in the Orchard surrounded by  bees and blackberries.
