Holidays

Most valuable item of clothing....!
Wow!  What a wet holiday.  The most valuable item of clothing that I packed was my gumboots!  Yes gumboots, for a Christmas/New Year summer holiday.  At one point it rained for 62 hours in a row.... However, it was good fun and a good time to rest and get ready for a fabulous 2012 school year.  
What was your highlight?  And why was it your highlight.  Don't forget to put your name at the end.
My highlight was buying a new bike.  Isn't it a cool colour!

  3. I have a few highlights - moving from Invercargill to Auckland at Christmas time, it was very exciting on the plane and seeing lots of new things. Being able to go to the beach to try my new boogie board out AND going to a lollie making shop to watch how lollipops are made and then making my own one!! :D

  5. My highlight of my holiday was a trip to South Island. My favorite city was Queenstown because there was a big lake. I like to put sticks in the lake. And throw rocks in the water. And i love watching the new year fireworks.
