On Saturday, I packed my bags to go to our family bach in Matarangi. My sister, my dad and I all went up at 8 o'clock in the morning. On the way, we went to Oliver’s bakery. I got a cream doughnut, and a mince and cheese pie. On the drive over, we played eye spy, but then got bored of it. We stopped halfway up for morning tea, and so I ate my cream doughnut. Then, when we finally arrived to the bach, I ate my pie. After that I just sat around and read for a while. Then I went to go put up the tent, which I’m not particularly good at… I hit my sister in the face with a tent pole, which she wasn’t happy about. Then, that night, we had sticky ribs for dinner. They were really good! Dad tried to trick us into thinking they tasted terrible, so that he could have them all to himself. He failed.
On Sunday morning, we went to the beach. My dad went for a swim, but Imogen and I decided to build a hut out of sticks. We worked really hard on it, but we stretched our limits a bit by trying to use really giant sticks - the problem is, we aren’t strong enough! In the end our hut failed. Then, we went back home, and had lunch. I had a ham sandwich which was surprisingly very delicious. It wasn’t just your average ham sandwich. Soon, mum arrived with Patrick, and we all played soccer, and had a water balloon fight. Later we went to the beach. I was riding my mum’s bike, and it has a seat on the back which is designed to hold towels, but it also can fit the average sized person. So because my sister didn’t want to ride her bike, she sat on the back with me. That night, we had a roast beef for dinner. It was really nice, and so was the gravy. After dinner my brother, sister and I played hide and go seek. We hid in the long grass, but because we all have hay fever, when we got out of the grass, our eyes went itchy and our noses were running.
nice job
