IN THE BIG HOLIDAYS

In the big holidays we were going to go to lake Taupo, when we where packing I asked mum if I could bring my PSP and she said I could so I packed my PSP into my bag we loaded every thing into the car and we were on our why to Taupo I had the map and was telling dad what roads to go on. When we were half way there dad stopped and showed us were he went to dog trials once and he showed us were all the events were being held on the day. When we got to Taupo we went and found were we were going to stay soon we were in our motel that we booked for we unpacked everything out of the car put we turned the TV on and watched some tennis.


After the game of tennis was finished me and Rhys went up to were you check in to the motel and we paid twenty dollars to hire the tennis courts down the bottom of the top ten holiday park so the lady gave us the keys to unlock the gate to get into the tennis courts, at first me and Rhys were playing by our selves but then mum and dad came down after about half an hour.

After playing tennis for an hour we went for a drive down to the supermarket and got some food and supplies then we drove past the bungee jumping area and dad said that one day we would go watch some people jump off over the Waikato River. When we got back to our motel I got my PSP out of the car and started to play smash court tennis 3.

The next day I got up and turned the TV on and watched Disney channel. When Rhys woke up I was playing PSP and he asked if he could have a turn on it so I gave it to him, after the battery went flat we put it on the charger and we went to have a look at the people doing the bungee jump over the Waikato river were you pay for a jump there was a video of people doing the bungee jump then we left to go to the sports centre to go in the go for a swim in the heated swimming pool inside it. When we were back at the motel me and Rhys went over to this big trampoline there its like a big rubber shaped pillow that is rubber.

On day 4 we went into town and went to a place called rapids jets, it’s a place were you can get to go in the get boat and you go through heaps of big rapids in the Waikato river, in one part of the ride we went though such a big rapid that we did a big jump when we were going over it was so much fun and at the end we were all soaked and we had to change cloths.

On day 5 we were at a cafĂ© and on our way back to the motel we saw some people parasailing over Lake Taupo we stopped and watched people parasailing for quit a while then mum and dad decided for us to have a go as well so the people in charge of it took us out on the water, me and mum were the first ones to go up first(dad couldn’t go up because it would cost to muck for all of us to go up)it was a big trill when you are up there it feels like you are flying by your self and we took heaps of pictures of us in the ear and we also bought a photo album of us in the ear because the people that were in charge were on the boat taking pictures of us. And then on day 7 we packed everything and went back home.
