My Trip to Kiama

On the 5th of April 2010, Hannah, Caleb, Mum and I all got on the train to Kiama to go and see my God-parents Aunty Liana and Uncle Gav, my God-brothers Keegan and Ronan and my newborn God-sister Maeve. She was the cutest thing I had ever seen.

We met Aunty Liana and Maeve at the ice-cream shop, just across the road from the park where Keegan and Ronan were running around like mad. When I saw Uncle Gav, I ran up to him and gave him the biggest hug ever.

We sat down and had some homemade wraps with chicken and lettuce and special mayonnaise for lunch. It was delicious!!! After lunch I got to have a little hold of Maeve and then it was present time. Because we hadn't been able to see Aunty Liana, Uncle Gav, Keegan, Ronan and Maeve in January like we were supposed to, we decided to give them their Christmas presents at the park.

For Keegan and Ronan, we gave them a couple of books, some colouring in stuff, a CD and a Cars lunch bag to put all that stuff in. We gave Aunty Liana and Uncle Gav some books and CDs to read and listen to. And last but not least, Maeve. Maeve had a very special present. For Maeve we got the cuddliest, furriest stuffed snow bear ever!!!

Mum gave Aunty Liana a special craft kit as a 'Mother of a new Baby again' present. Then they gave us an Easter present to share. There was a children's book, a Nursery Rhyme CD, some colouring in stuff and 2 bottles of bubbles each!

Later on, we went up to the ice-cream shop and bought a tub of ice-cream each. Mum had Rum and Raisins with Mint Cookie Slice. Aunty Lian had Mango, Keegan had Chunky Mango and Ronan had Rainbow. Caleb, Hannah and I had gluten-free Vanilla.

After we had finished eating we went down to the harbour and had a look at the first couple of stores at the market until we came to a little box of bags and beanies all for $2 each. Aunty Lian remembered that she had $10 left - enough for each of us to have either a bag or a beanie. Keegan and Ronan got a beanie each and Caleb, Hannah and I got a mini hand-bag each. Caleb's bag was green with a monkey and a banana, Hannah's was pink with a bear and a pot of honey and mine was orange with a puppy and a bone.

Soon after we walked up to the train station and said goodbye. I'm going to miss them.

When we got to the station we met up with Hannah's God-mother's cousin, Steph. We found out that she was going to Nowra to visit Hannah's Godmother, Aunty Meshell. So we decided to travel together.

When we got to Berry there was a long delay because someone had stolen the copper wire off the track (or so we were told - ed.) so we had to wait for a little while before we got moving again.When we got to Nowra, we said goodbye to Steph and went home.

I had a fun day!
