Gore Bay

On a cold, rainy Friday afternoon, we were all waiting patiently for my dad to arrive so we could leave, as he pulled up the driveway my brother and I had packed everything we would need. We packed the car and drove away. We stopped at Amberley to collect some food from countdown and kept going. When we finally arrived at 5:55pm, we ran up to the house to pick our rooms. My cousin and her fiance got the master bedroom, my brother and I got bunks and my mum shared the bedroom with us but got a single bed on the other side of the room and my dad slept on the couch. Once everything was set up we went outside, the view was so nice! There was a swing, lots of trees and a nice secret path to the beach. We were going to be there for the entire weekend. We had a bbq for dinner on the first night, we ate at about 10:00pm because we went to explore and set up. After dinner we watched Netflix and went to bed. The next day when we had all woken up and we were all ready we all jumped in the car, and drove to kaikoura to spend the day there. Once we arrived we got out of the car and walked into a cafe, I got wedge chips and an iced coffee. Once we had left we walked around for a bit and then walked over to a jewelry shop and I got a crystal. Then when we came back we went surfing but it sucked so my brother and I just bodyboarded. Then I set up my bed on the couch because I didn't like sleeping in the bunks. For dinner we went over to cheviot to get fish and chips. Later that night we ate and talked together, we then went to bed. The next morning my dad, brother and cousins boyfriend went surfing. I then woke up because of all the commotion, and got ready. After I got ready I walked my dog at the beach, then came back to go on the swing outside. I then packed up all my stuff ready to go, even though we weren't leaving for an hour, we had a bbq for breakfast. Then we left!
