Skye's Flat Stanley Goes to Takaka With Caleb

In the weekend I took Skye's Flat Stanley home. We went to Takaka. We all went to Guy Fox. It was a wee while until it started. It was fun because I had to dodge all of the flames that were flying at me. Catilin was playing with her friends that she has over there. Only Nana went white baiting because she puts the makers out and she came from her house in the morning. Grandad and I went scalloping. The first time Catilin said she wanted to come but when we got halfway Catilin was crying. Flat Stanley loved it so did I. We had to go back and drop her off then we had to go back again.Skye's Flat Stanley and I measured the scallops and we dropped them in a bucket. We went in the Campervan with FS. On the way back we had chips and boiled eggs. We had icecream for pudding too. On the way back I was asleep just about the whole time. I rang Mum up and FS told Mum he was having a good time there. FS was sick on the way back. We knew because he told us so we stopped the Camper van. I was a wee bit sick too. Mum didn't come because she needs to do work at the hospital.

Flat Stanley and Quade Holiday with Todd

Flat Stanley and Quade and I went to Christchurch for Labour Weekend. We stayed at Bella Vista. There was a spa pool but we didn't go in the spa poo because we had to pay to get in the spa pool. On Monday we went to our cousins house. We played on the trampoline. We played cricket. I played on the bikes around the big yard. Then we went baek to the motel. When we got back I had a little sleep with Flat Stanley and Quade. They slept longer than me.

Skye's Flat Stanley Goes To Totoranui

Skye's Flat Stanley and I went to Totoranui after school on Friday with my family. On the way we had fish and chips for tea. When we had toasted marshmallows we got ready for bed. Joe and I slept in the little tent. It was dark when Joe came into our tent. We got our head lights to read in our sleeping bags. The next day we went to the next beach. On the way I got a special leaf. The leaf was special because you could write on it. I was the only one who got some. My sister and my brother were annoying me so I told my Mum. Then we arrived the beach. Joe climbed up the big rock. We took a photo of Joe on the rock, then we walked up the litte rocks. Tom and Joe found a great big crab. It was red and orange, it was as big as Keri's hands if she put her hands together. Then we had to put the big crab into a big rock pool. We saw it moving to a rock. We found a litte cave. We went through it. We had to go back to the camp. We had noodles for lunch. Then we went to the beach across the road. Joe and I could go to the beach when we wanted to. We found two whole buckets full of crabs, then it was time to go back to the tent for tea. We had fish burgers. I liked them a lot. We had a drink of juice.

The next day Adrienne said "We're going back to our house." We were sad that we were going home. After breakfast we went to the beach. We spent most of the day at the river. We dug up some of the sand. It was fun when we went to the next beach. We went even more further than last time we went there. When it was time to go back down the path, when we were close to the end, we let Joe run back to the tent to bring in the washing because it was raining. We drew in our special camping books. When Mum and Dad started to pack up the tents it was raining really hard. We waited in the truck until we were ready to go.

We had lots of wet stuff when we got home. We had to put the tents up to dry.

Flat Stanley and Quade Have Fun With Flynn

When I took Flat Stanley and Quade home I played in the pool. Flat Stanley was sitting on the pool step. He didn't want to get wet. I made a chocolate cake with Flat Stanley. Flat Stanley and I watched Kangaroo Jack. Flat Stanley and I had a good time on the trampoline. I taught Flat Stanley how to do flips and back flips. Flat Stanley tried to do a flip and he did it very well. Flat Stanley and I wrote some stories. Flat Stanley's story was about him. FS and I were drawing landscapes with my paint set .We painted them on my easel.
