In the holidays I went to a farm up North to see my sister. She live's with our cousin because she didn't like living in Glen Innes. Every holiday I go to see my sister for a visit.
When I was up North at Waipu we went to the beach at Waipu Cove. It is a wildlife beach. There were rockpools full of crab's, starfish and spider crabs. It was cool.
When it was high tide and you are fishing, King fish would come right up to your feet and when they did my cousin Johan would use the spear, then spear them. But most escaped from him so those one's were lucky.
The Waipu Caves were scary but in a funny way because when you go in, there are heap's of cave's with spiders, glow worms, Hu Hu bugs, Hu Hu grubs and all kinds of weird and crazy stuff.
On January the 18th it was birthday. It was fun. I had a big cake and I had all unhealthy food. When I opened my present's I felt excited because I was wondering what I had. I got a body wash, a set of games, new clothes and money. They were all cool presents. After my birthday, three days later, we went back to Auckland. I reckon I had a fun holiday with my family.

Hi Shontal,
What a fantastic story. You had included so many details I was able to get a really clear idea of what it was like for you at the beach and on your birthday. I'm am so pleased you are keeping up with the blogging. I can't wait to read your next story.

Hi Shontal, I have just discovered this post and I LOVED it! Perhaps because we are heading into Winter it brought a big smile to my face. Do you really have kingfish swim up to you at high tide? I can't believe it - it sounds like a fishing tale to me. Do you have a photo of this? Great writing. Keep it up.
