Thermal Plesures!!!!

For my AWESOME Easter holiday we all went to Waiwera Thermal Pools! Did you know that it was also our family reunion so much fun.re lots of relatives all staying together.It was so fun and my heart was pumping with energy to go on every single slide and go in every single pool!

At the beginning of the day, my four aunties, my uncle, my cousins and I were on our way to another house at Waiwera.We went there to have breakfast that my cousin's mum made. My other cousins and one of their parents arrived from their cabins too.We stayed there for the rest of the morning and then got ready to walk to the pools.

When we got there, I was exhausted from all the walking!!I just could'nt wait to swim but we had to wait for about two hours until everyone arrived. It was sooo boring. When everyone got there, we had a really long prayer before we did our items.

I was really scared!! I couldn't wait until it was all over and done with,but guess what.....I had to do ANOTHER item!!!Both of my items were a tribute to my great grandfather."I am going to do well in the item! I am going to go good in the item!",I kept saying to myself!

As soon as our items were over,I was relieved that I didn't make any mistake while we were dancing!It was then time for my cousins,auntie and uncles dance.When all of the items were completed,I marveled at the glorious yummy food inside the pots.It was obviously time to eat!

I reached for my auntie's secret mushroom chowder and placed it on my plate.I also picked up some salad and sausages.As soon as I was finished,I either had to decide if I wanted to do some activities with my uncle Jack,or go to the pools and slides.I just couldn't decide! I picked the pools! Well, mostly all the kids did! Even though I felt sorry for my uncle, I got changed anyway.

I had to wait for my mum to get changed, but Gabriel, my cousin, said that she could keep an eye out on me.The first slide that we went on was the long, Grinch like coloured, two slided"Twister"! I stammered when it was our turn to go inside it! As soon as the security guard said we could slide down, I just closed my eyes and pretended like I was inside a calm hot pool,then,"AHH,get me out,get me out!!",I screamed while I was half way through the slide. When I got to the bottom,I wanted to go on it again!!!I never knew that it would be so much fun!So I did. I went on it about 4 more times.

Then I tried the dark,fast turning "Black Hole"!It was so dark and scary,that even my mum and dad didn't want to go in it!When I got to the bottom of that one,I didn't really want to go in it again.

In the afternoon, it was then time to unleash the fast, yellow, other two slided "Speed Slide"!!! It was another scary slide because it was as fast as a racing car going at full speed! Even though it was really deep at the bottom,I still wanted to go on it some more! I wanted to go on it because it was my dad,my auntie,my cousins and my two brother's favorite slide!

After all of the slides,I went in the movie pool. It was so hot. I went out because I couldn't really handle it that much!

It was time to go and get changed.I went with my mum and after we went into our meeting room.I literally filled my plate with easter eggs and cake as a snack.We all got an easter egg each and then we headed off to our homes.

I really had fun and I would really like to go there again!
