School holiday!

In the school holidays my parents and my cousins had plans we were first going to Matakana for one day and then sand spit. All we did at Matakana was going on my cousin James Nintendo switch and play on my iPad and when I was at sandspit holiday park I was excited. With my cousins we made a pool made out of the sand. First we had to dig a hole, secondly we had to make and form the walls and then we had to put the water in. We also went kayaking but when I was with my sister she pushed me into the water when I was going the kayak then I walked back to the shore because I didn't want to get pushed into the water again. On our last day, the water disappeared into the sand! I was shocked so me and my cousins couldn't swim so went on the trampoline and did a wrestling competition I was the referee and Peter won with 3 nil. I hope the next school holiday is gonna be fun.
