Family Reunion in Hawaii 2011 - My Reccount

On Friday 15 July we had our Atoa Tugaga Family Reunion. It was held in Hawaii. It was really fun! 

We were given our name tags and put into groups. Like green, red, blue and yellow. 
We hugged our cousins and it felt good to see them again. We had lunch and it was yummy. We had lots of fruits and sandwiches to eat.

We then took our bags to the tents. It was a cool tent because it was by the beach! It looked like a humungus party with all my cousins, aunties and uncles in the tents beside us. 

I could smell the salty waves from the beach. It reminded me of Castlepoint beach in Masterton. When I was a baby I ate the sand!

My favourite memory of the reunion was swimming with my cousin Jenna and Uncle Tony and my Dad. The waves tried to drown me by pushing my whole body into the big blue sea. My cousin grabbed my hand and dragged me out of the sea.

After that my cousin Jenna and Uncle Tony help me to swim in the sea.

WATCH YOU STEP!

'Watch your Step!' said the sign as we stepped carefully onto the ferry. The sun was shining like white nivia cream and it was a girls day out. I went with Mrs Logan, my sisters and mum but her real name is Jenny Mahon ha ha!

The boat was moving like a slow whale. Me and my sisters took pictures and we had awesome fun.
The big blue waves went swish swish swish.
"This is fun!" said my cheeky sister Salina. We all laughed!
We were very proud of our sister Salina because she was a good girl.

A Smelly Bathroom by Nelisa

A Smelly Bathroom

Drip, drip, drip the water spitted from my togs as I got out  of  the pool, I shivered from the  cold as I followed my sisters  to the  bathroom to have a shower.  I felt happy to get out of the pool because I was feeling a little bit hungry.  Rumble, rumble, rumble went my tummy.

I got my towel, soap and conditioner and I went in the shower.  I opened the door and my eyes fell on the floor, to my surprise I saw a kaka .  It looked like a brown long snake with yellow bits of corn in it.  It was disgusting, it made me feel like spewing up.  My little sister Salina stepped on the stinky kaka because she ran in without looking.
"Ooh yucky kaka!" said Salina
