Hamanatua Stream Walk

On Wednesday (MLH) went for a long mudy walk up Hamanatua. First we had to walk on the road for a long time. Then we went over the fence and started to walk. Straight away we had our first challenge we had to go over a stream. 

I just went through because I had gum boots but some people had shoes. Tre slipped in ,Someone dropped their bag in the water and lots of people had soaking shoes. There was lots of cow doo doo and my legs were going to give up on me. There were so many Mud pachis on the way and they were satisfying to stand on. As we got closer the Hamanatua got smaller. At halfway we ate brain brake. Then we walked for a long time until we saw a bunch of cows with there calfs. We had to stay quiet because one of the the calf were sleeping. But obviously everyone stayed super loud. After a long walk we finally got to were the Hamanatua stream starts I was so relieved that I could finally sit down and eat my lunch. Then we walked back and did everything in reverse. Until we got back to where we started. We had to cross the stream again I just went though because I had gum boots but Neko fell in and his waist down was soaking.

When we got back the teacher said that we walked 8.5 Km and that's a lot of damage. I couldn't wait to go back to class and sit down. The end

Cooks cove walk



 On Thursday I was getting ready for Cooks cove walk. I have done it before and it is fun but I'm a bit worried this time because I want to be in a walking group with at least one of my friends. We got put into our car groups and I was pretty happy because I got Neko, Kobi, Nathan and Oska. All the year six's were doing this walk  to practice for year six camp. 

When we got there, the teacher told us our walking groups. I was in the first group, with none of my friends! My group was Raphi, Ella and Alice. Then we started walking up 'The Beast'. As I said earlier, I have done the walk before ,so i remembered most of it. Now we had reached the Massive Beacon of Light statue, it was pretty humongous! Me and all my friends were split up, so I wasn't the only lonely one. 

When we got to the look out we could see so far into the wild. We had just arrived to the top of hill and where on our way down the other side when we saw an epic morpork (A pretty cool bird). We went to the beach, here we ate our brain break on the soggy grass. Then, we went to this magical hole through a hill leading to a rocky beach. At last we went up and down the hill again.

I was so tired. On the way back I almost fell asleep in the car. That night I lay in bed in pain but I survived it was hard to fall asleep though. 

THE END
