About Me

 

Holiday Recount

On the weekend. 

I was with my dad and. My uncle came to our house With his son and brother. They came over to have fun but his son was very sleepy. Once they came over to our house to play. My uncle’s son woke up and he got excited but then they came over to have a feast. 

But when we had a feast it was night time and ones it was night time they slept over at 

Our house they woke up in the morning and when they woke up they were about to go Home until then my dad asked if I want to go with them to they house and I said yes so I Got all my things ready and I almost forgot about my toothbrush then when I was ready It was time to go I went outside to go to their car I got in their car and we went out ones We went out to go to their home it took 40 minutes to get there but then we had a break And went to the beach with my cousin and little cousin.  My little cousin was a girl and  My other cousin was a boy. Once we went to the beach we started jumping off the cliff And when we jumped off the cliff we started to do a shotgun. A shotgun is like when you Jump and like to make a huge splash on the water. But me and my uncle and cousin Went to 6 beaches but then it was 4 days  since I hadn’t got home but then I went Home at 3am at night time and then my mum missed me and she was happy that I came back.
