Rugby practis

Rugby practice "Come on come on it's our turn," I shouted. Now let's have some fun like the others. When we ran onto the field I could see everyone running around and kicking the ball. We had a game of ball rush and I thought I was going to get smashed to the ground by an Otago rugby player. But they went easy on us because we aren't like them. We play in under 9s, under11s and under 13s. I got tackled by a very chubby boy because I was one of the last people on the start line and they were all ganging up on me. I could feel sweat dripping down my face like if I tipped a glass of water on myself.I got tackled again but this time it was by one of the Otago players and all I could taste was grass,and dirt was on my face and I started coughing. When the practice was finished we went to the canteen beside the rugby field and bought some chips.IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!

Best Christmas

It was the big day.Christmas was here. When we woke up I could see heaps of presents just waiting there for me to open them up. When we started our journey to Lake Wakatipu we crossed many little towns. The truck started over heating so we had to stop. When we stopped I asked “Can we have an ice~ cream?” Dad explained “ Wait until we get to camp.” Finally the long journey was over, but we still had to set up camp. I told Mum, Dad and Jay that was BORING! A while later I asked “ Can we go for a swim?” Dad replied “Yes, but don't go near the fast current.” “Okay.” When I went into the water I saw a fish narrowly missing my face. As we hopped out of the water we asked “Can we go fishing?” “Yes you can.” When we cast the rod into the water we caught 2 brown trout and 1 rainbow trout. Once we finished fishing at 10 pm (when we go on trips to places we stay up quite late). The next day we got up bright and early.It was a day when we relax and sit down on our squishy chiars and talk about all the cool times we’ve had as a family. But as the day passed it was time to hop to bed and go to sleep.I could hear possums scratching the trees and once I thought that we left the tent door open and a possum, or a bunny came inside, but luckily it was only the wind blowing against the tent. The next day was the day that we had to pack up the tent and go home, I was disappointed when we left. It was the best christmas ever.
