Dear Jay-Bea,

I am writing this letter to you to say a massive thank you for giving up your precious time and energy for us on camp last week. I really enjoyed camp with you and loved all of those funny moments.

My best highlight was the amazing race. I liked it when we came to you, the tarp was hard. We had to work together to flip it. I stood at the front shimming it. It was funny when Dylan kept falling off. After many attempts we finally completed our hard task.

Another good highlight was kayaking, It was funny when we crashed into you and you started splashing us. “ABORT! ABORT!” I screamed in laughter. Splash! The water is freezing, I said whilst trying to swim out of the cold water.

Claw, Claw. Everyone shivering over the massive wetas just waiting for the right time to pounce on us. The last cave was a nightmare. Crawling over mud thicker than my body,I was beyond scared straight.

An interesting fact I learned is that Lake Waikaremoana was formed about 2,200 years ago when a massive landslip blocked a gorge along the Waikaretāheke River. The gorge filled with water, creating a lake up to 248 metres deep in some spots.

Yours Sincerely

Cruze

My Special Place

My Special Place

1. Cold Temperatures            

2. Trampolining

3. Theme Parks

4. Famous Youtubers           

One day i woke up to the cold snowy breeze, fanning right into my shivering face from my massive windows. I got up to eat cereal and I pour out the freezing milk and noticed it was frozen like elsa put a spell on it. When i'm going out to play, I have to gear up like i'm going to Antarctica. The winds are extremely cold, reaching temperatures of below 0 degrees. I love the cold winds even though I can't withstand them. My favorite part of the day is going back home just to snuggle under all my sheets and go back to bed and dream about the next day that's about to hit me.

Jumping out of bed, racing out of the front door on a ice melting day. Speeding and pouncing into the car like i never have done before and speeding off to Tempest, the famous trampoline park. When we got there i immediately sped of to the super tramps, Bouncing as high as the roof, doing frontflips to backflips, 180s to 720s. I twisted and turned flopping onto the tramps. I started to do risky jumps, jumping from tramp to tramp as skillful people would do.(each tramp is blocked of by a wall and has a small entrance) i landed on my belly to   stop me from bouncing to high. When we had to go home i was feeling extremely sad. I didn't want to leave the awesome trmpolines but we had to go home.

The theme parks at my special place are insanely fun. Whenever i go on the freezing slides i always yell AHHH SO COLD. I also love to go on the roller coasters there enormous! One time i went on a rollercoaster that was over 100  feet high! It might not seem that high for roller coasters but when i got there it was about 1000 of me stacked up! I jumped on the ride, seconds later speeding off like superman flying at his full speed. When I got off the ride i saw people vomiting, I heard people yelling, I felt very dizzy like i've just ran a marathon and smelt the disgusting smell of other peoples yellow slobbing vomit all over the floor.

Even though i haven't seen any famous youtubers i know a lot that live in or around my special place. Its really funny because you dont know when a youtuber could come around the sharp edgy conners. Some youtubers that live there are Scooter Brad, NZFarmer and SlashedDuff. I watch all 3 of these stunning Youtubers. Farming/Hunting, Riding Scooters and pokemon, All of them are very well known and you should watch them.

HOW MAUI FOUND THE SECRET OF FIRE

One moonless dark night Maui gazed into the fire and said “Hmmm…” Maui wondered to himself “is fire able to be made” so he tested his hypothesis. Later that night when it was pitch black, not a single noise not a single light except the fiery hot heat of the flamey fire, he went to grab the water then quickly sprinted over to the fire on a quick paste, he dropped the tiniest drops of water onto the scorching humid fire. The fire went out. Maui laid down and waited until sun rise. 9 in the morning everyone woke up. They were furious at Maui “You terrible person!” they screamed with fury.

They forced Maui to go to the blistering sweltering hot volcano to get more fire, No one wanted to come with him, only his true friends, All the native New Zealand birds the (tui, weka, pūkeko, moa, kiwi and the takahē). He started to walk to the volcano he was sweating like usain bolt in A olympic race, he crossed the river filled with green scaly crocodiles. When he got through the river he had to walk through the tropical stormy desert, it was scorching hot but very stormy and damp. Dusty massive dust storms surrounding Maui on every angle, he sprinted like a new flash. Maui reached the other side of the desert taking him several hours, he saw a river, the volcano was on the other side of the river so he had to go through the last river, the Whanganui River. 

Maui finally reached the volcano, black ash, fiery flames, bright orange lava everywhere, he entered the dangerous volcano and saw his aunt, Mahuika the ugly lava making lady. Maui asked dearly for a little flame from her. As he asked so politely and respectfully Mahuika she gave him one but Maui didn't use it to lite a fire instead he threw it into the river! The birds watched him do it, They were frozen in shock. Maui repeated this 8 more times, Every time making up a different excuse.

“It was raining and it went out, I hurt my leg and fell on it, the wind blew it out, I fell into the river, I ran into a tiki and the tiki stole it, the tui ate it, a bird stole it off me” Maui said. When Mahuika was on her last fire she was furious, She was so furious she bursted into flames squirting fire all over Maui. Her last flame blew up into a tree. Maui saw it blow up in the tree and started to climb it, he couldn't find it but he had an idea! “I am going to rub two pieces of wood together” Maui whispered to himself in excitement. 

 Maui ran to the pa and started to rub the wood lite gray smoke started to appear, Every second MAUI rubbed the wood faster and faster until sparks started to form, the people in the pa cried with joy “YAY, WE DON’T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT FIRE EVER AGAIN,” The sticks caught fire and Maui quickly put the fire onto a cluster of sticks. The cluster of sticks caught fire creating a historic thing that will never be forgotten.
