My Holiday Recount🎉🎉

During the holidays I went to Auckland for my cousins 10th birthday! I wrote a recount on it and this is what I wrote. 


In the empty streets of Whangarei, our silver car cut through the light fog that was sitting on the road. The sun yawned happily as it walked into view and threw orange, green, pink, and blue colours all over the sky. My nana hummed along to the music while my aunty stared blankly into my phone. We were driving to Auckland to celebrate my cousin’s 10th birthday! I gazed out the car window to see the stars waving goodbye and disappearing from view. 

 Driving to my cousin’s house, we had a pit stop at Macdonald’s to enjoy breakfast. The warm, fluffy pancakes had been drizzled with sweet maple syrup and the hot chocolate warmed my body making the freezing cold vanish into thin air. Afterwards, we ventured to my cousin's house. Inside my cousin’s house, the atmosphere had a warm, welcoming feeling. 

So, as I wandered around, there was my cousin snoring peacefully on her bed. I woke her up and with an excited voice I said “Happy birthday!” and as she steadily stirred in her sleep, I gave her a small nudge to wake her up. Some of her clothes looked like they were singing in perfect melody; others look like they haven’t heard the perfect pitch before! She was still stunning in her brand new clothes and as the sun danced off her making her hazel eyes, sparkled with excitement. 

 Twenty minutes later, we were all enjoying the fresh air and were on the long drive to Auckland. The endless green fields were painted with flowers and we were all bored and had nothing to make our boredom disappear. So, as our silver car traversed along the eternal highway, me and my cousins fell into a deep sleep. 

 Waking up in the busy streets of Auckland, I was excited to beat my cousins at any and every game in Timezone. Hopping out of the car and walking steadily to my destination, the cars along the road roared past me and crowded the streets. The sun was now sitting happily in the inky, blue sky and was smiling down at me. Walking into Timezone with my family, adrenaline ran throughout my entire body; so as I went onto the games I enjoyed the hours we spent there, I lived in the moment.
