Today I went shopping at St Lukes, Auckland with Caitlin (my Biffle), I bought a new bikini, some mini shorts (blue with rips), a pair of black jandals, a 20pair pack of gold earrings, a pack of 12 pairs of different coloured button earrings, a gold cross necklace (as in the religious cross a symbol of Jesus giving his life for us) and a new hoodie (you know the pullovers that everyone has with names of random city's and places on them) if you don't who cares? After making sure Caitlin and I were home on the dot of 10 o'clock as my dad had insisted he was 49 minutes late, as caitlin and I had been sitting around with our stuff waiting. So we started our journey at 10:49, not really leaving until 11am. We headed off to Whananaki to Mototara Farm (lovely camping grounds btw AMAZING!!!) for our 9 day camping adventure (with Caitlin only staying 5 days sadly :( ).We were in the car forever!!! I swear it felt like days surprisingly enough it was only 5 hours with a brief stop in Welsford for subway (which was lunch), a brief stop in Whangarei (at countdown the place we go every year for food etc. in Whangarei) to get supplies (as in food, drink and other necessities), and a brief stop at the Whananaki beach store for ice, ice-cream, pies and hot chips (pies and hot chips for dinner). Once we reached the camp-site (no. 9 on Barons beach, which we are now permanent holiday makers there from December 26th-January 3rd)Caitlin and I immediately ran up the hill to try and find reception to continue our texting conversations with our friends and tell our mum's we had arrived safely. Once we came back down the hill we put up dad's tent (the Taj Mahal), then the gazebo, we then went to put up my tent when I realised I had forgotten the tent poles, so me and Caitlin had to sleep in dad's tent with dad and Hannah. Once our whole camp was set up we went for a walk around the beach, dad telling us our boundaries (how far we could go without his supervision) and we also played on the swing with Hannah (we meaning Caitlin and I for the swing and everyone for the walk on beach). after we got bored of the swing Caitlin and I decided we had been long enough without reception and decided to go back up the hill so we could text and call our friends and family. After we were back we read and did our own thing until bed (me doing sudoku and writing my journal entry and caitlin reading black roses or something like that). we went to bed a bit early as in 9:30pm because we were tired after the long journey in the car, and ready for another 8 days of adventure (Caitlin only 4).
