=Camp recount:= =Rafting= =Rafting was my favourite activity we did. It was on Tuesday. It started in the mourning= =when we had our breakfast and got ready to go to rafting. First of all we went to the river= =activites place where met the river rafting guides Mike and Deon. After that we had to=

was to find a spot in the river to cross. We found 3 places but they were all mostly a bit hazadous
==but we picked the second spot. Finally it was time to raft so we learned some the ways to hold the paddle which was called a T grip and we learned some other stuff. Then our 2 hour rafting trip began I was a bit scared but== ==then I started to like it. We had Sams dad and Deon who was very funny in our raft. As we went we hit many things like boulders and trees also going down rapids was extra fun. then we stopped and crossed our river spot we chose and it looked we chosed the wrong spot it was too rocky and deep. So we carried on down the river then we stopped at a rock cliff and got to dive of it but I didn't dive of it but it looked like fun. We carried on and then we through Carnidge corner where Deon snapped his paddle. Then the other raft did a wheelie better than ours. The end was near, we paddled more and more ducked under a branch and saw a waterfall. The finish was right around the corner but then suddenly the other raft got stuck on a boulder but we paddled into them and pushed them out. Then we finished and heaved our rafts onto the trailer and then it was time to go back in the bus to camp.==

**// Splash Planet //** **// As we walk through the front gate I could see towers, slides, and a train, and food, lots of water, floaties and kids everywhere. I wonder where to go first, I thought then decided to go to the water slides. I climbed up waited for my go. Then it was my go, the water slide, blue, fun, high and awesome, was very cool not scary! //**   **// After that I swam across the river like pool around front pools and slides. This is a special place for me because it’s fun and we come here every year. I asked mum and dad for hot chips also a hotdog for my sister and I, the hot chips were as hot like hot soup just has been made. I ate my food and jumped into the pool where everyone was doing something like playing, relaxing, swimming and eating. //**   **// A while later I went and rode something with red paint, runs on tracks and makes a choo choo noise. A train! I’m feeling really happy and like this place because it’s very fun. Later on I went out to the bumper boat area where I bounced, I bumped and splashed. Although I like the bumper boats, I like the big water slides more, where I hear people scream, cry, laugh and talk about things like work. //**   **// I was running fast and about to jump in a pool… then I slammed myself against a floatie, ruined splash! I was playing unaware we were leaving. What a day! //**   **// $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ //**
