Holly's holiday

DAY ONE: Today we woke up at 7.30 and we drove to Whangarei we saw dad start his race here. Then we went in the car to go to Dargaville to meet him there, because that was where he finished his race. Dad was very tired after his bike race.


Then we went to Bayly's beach where we stayed that night. It was very small, but that was ok. Then I helped Kath to do the dinner it was yum. After that Alex and I went on the swing, it went high. Then I got in to my pjs and we went outside to look at the stars. We saw six satellites in the sky there were so many stars we saw the Milky Way it looked awesome, I had never seen it before.




DAY TWO: Today we woke up at 6.30 I didnt sleep very well there were to many bugs biting me and every one. In the morning I had breakfast and then I brushed my teeth and we packed the car. 

Dad went to the start line for his next bike race. We went in the car and then started driving to Opononi to meet him at the finish line. On the way we went to see the Tane Mahuta tree. It looked huge, it was a 5min walk to get there, it was amazing, it must be over 100 years old. Then we went back to the car and kept on driving. When we got to the finish line there was a beach near the finish so we went and had a look. The water felt cold, then we walked back to the finish and dad arrived over the finish line.












DAY THERE: Today we woke up at 7.30 and then we packed the car and went to start to drive to Paihia. On the way there was a water fall so we went to have a look at it. It looked stunning. Then we went back to the car to drive to the finish to see dad come in.  Then we went to where we were going to stay. After that dad took us to the Waitangi treaty grounds. We got given sheets to fill out as we walked and had a look at the waka. It looked cool with all of its carvings on it. I had never been there before. After we looked at every thing we walked back to cheek our answers. Then we went back to the car and drove back where we were going to stay  



DAY FOUR: Today was raining so dad didn't do his bike race, so we went to the finish line and watched dad's friends come in. Then we went and got some lunch and went home sweet home.
