Week Five

August 24 Cool Candle

On Wednesday my family and me went to the Craigrothie restaurant for Duncan's birthday party. I drank refreshing apple juice and to eat I had soup, salmon and chips. After dinner the lady brought an amazing firework candle! It was for Duncan's birthday. After that we all sang happy birthday. Harry and I got chocolate ice-cream with a chocolate flower in it.

August 28 Drama Class

Three days ago I did drama with Miss Taylor. The queen was in a bad mood and we had to go and get the ripest apple, a chameleon's skin and a giant's whisker to mix up in a pot and give it to her for a drink. The queen really liked it and then she gave us lots of toys to play with in the sprinkler in her garden. I think drama is really cool!

August 21 The Zoo

Yesterday I drove a long way to Edinburgh zoo. First we went and saw 50 million penguins and some were really funny because they had yellow hair on their heads. Next we saw the HUGE black and white tapirs. Then we saw 2 browny-black sun bears. After that we saw 2 jaguars. One of them was climbing up and down rocks and it was black. The other one was orange and spotty and it came up very close to us and walked side to side like it was putting on a show. I loved going to the zoo so much!

August 11 Our village

My village is called Crail. My favourite place to go in Crail is the cafe with a big sand statue by it. I like my village because it's got beautiful flowers. My village is way tinier than Auckland. There's a beach, one school, three food stores and one cafe. It's Scotland's summer and it's rainier than New Zealand's winter!

August 5

Yesterday my family and i went to the deer park. First I got the food and went to feed the deers. I fed a black one, an orange one, one with antlers and one that was very special because it had spots and was orange and white. Next we went to the bird show. My favourite was the hawk because it flew over our heads and it touched my head two times.

August 7 Dundee

Today we went to Dundee. First my brother, Harry, Daddy, Mummy, and I went to the swimming pools. Mummy and I went on the rapid river. It would push you round and round in circles and it was really fast. I felt happy. Next my Mummy and I went to buy my school uniform. We got black shoes with flowers on, a grey dress, two blue skirts and three white tops. I felt excited!
