Diploma Trip // Week Nine//Text base skill2

Cornwallis Beach one day trip

That was a marvellous trip, and we had a lot of fun together on 1st of May. In the morning, a group pepole (including Flint, Bu Chao with his daughter, Cindy, Helen, Tarik, Anita) assembed at the building 48 around 8:40 am. Unfortunatly, Jeniffer got sick on that day, so she missed the trip.

About 9:30am, we drove to the first plase -- Cafe La Vinci, where is on the Titirangi Road. We met Jan at the same time by chance. When we came into the shop, Emma and James had already been chatting over there. I ordered a cup of cappuccino and a piece of apriot pai. It's delicious. Most of our classmates came there, we were very happy to have a talk during the morning tea. After an hour later, we would go to Cornwallis Beach for our shared picnic lunch.


That is a beautiful beach, and we enjoyed it with breeze and warm sun shine. Lunch was quite good. I got some chichen from Anita, some baked chichen wings from Cindy and veg salad from Hellen. Oh! It's yummy! My wife helped me to make a cake with dates, apricots and raisins covering, and taste so good.

About 2 o'clock, we finished the share lunch. Some of us will go to Huia Piont to go fishing. It's my first time to go fishing. However, some classmates have that experienced. They taught me how to bait on the hook, and how to feel the fish is biting, and how to row back the string. Fishing is an interesting sport, I think. When you pull the fish out of the water, you are so exciting. Unfortunately, we totally caught nine pippers during the 4 hours, and 2 snapes were too small, we had to release them.


That is a wonderful trip, and I really enjoyed it.
