The Adventure Begins

 Hello I'm Jordan and for some of you who don't know me I live in Auckland New Zealand but we have friends in Christ Church called the Placids and the Allens. The Placids and the Allens are great friends of ours, the mum of the placids family is called Tarina Placid . Tarina is a good friend with my dad Anthony Samuel who use to work for What Now with her. Any way we were excited that we were going to the south island. So we packed our bags.

 Gear packed, ready to roll the adventure begins. Traveling down to Wellington it was getting late and we needed a place to stay we only got to Hamilton we were going to tent by the river but we traveled on and slept at a motel. There was a spa and a pool. The spa was lovely. After the spa we came inside and watched a movie called Real Steel then we went to bed at 12.34 am it was very early in the morning!

 We probably woke up at 10.25 am, I was still tired but we had to carry on with the journey. We tidied up the place and left. Two hours later we were getting a bit bored of this trip. "When will this end?" I thought to myself us boys in the car were getting a bit hungry and thirsty. "FINALLY we stopped" I sighed. We stopped at the gas station to get some gas after all we've been traveling for three hours! Gas tank full lets hit the road but this time with a drink and some food.

 Near Wellington now all of us getting excited from traveling for six hours wow! Hopping out of the car relieved that we don't have to stay in that car car for another hour. Bang Bang Bang we knocked on the door and heard no reply for a while then suddenly someone opened the door and out came Kristen the mother of a boy named Harry who is the same age than me and the wife to a man named Rodney. Then some more of the friends arrived it was a great night but you always have to sleep so we slept at our friends house.

 That morning it was early and we had time to hang out with our friends and played with the Lego. Let me introduce the family The mums name is Jade, the dads name is Shane the two boys names are Isaiah and Jackson, the two girls names are India and Autumn. During the middle of the day me and my brothers were having fun on the trampoline bouncing doing back flips and front flips it was really fun.

 Getting cozy in the bed we snuggled up and went to sleep. Waking up around dinner time we were still tired and wanted to go back to sleep. We had the best spaghetti boll for dinner. It was delicious mmmhmm yum yum. After all this will be our last night here in Wellington,so we had to stay up all night because our ferry leaves at 2.00 in the morning so having fun with the last few hours we have spending time with them and the Lego, after a while we had to leave so we hugged and we waved good bye as we left the premises. "I'm so excited about going on the ferry", I exclaimed.
