Ice Skating Memoir

I could hear myself screaming. My mind went blank. WHAM! I hit the ice with a thud. My leg was stinging horribly. I slowly got back onto my feet and started skating around the rink. Instantly my leg felt better. 

A few minutes later l collided with Jacob. He hit the ice, but I stayed on my feet. Kaleb started charging at me and so was  his opponent. I dodged them just in time. "Off the ice now kids it's lunch time," Mrs Lees called. "I can't wait until we're  allowed back on the ice," I thought to myself.

The highlight of my holidays

When we stayed in Dunedin, we drove to the Otago Peninsula. On the way to the Peninsula was a very windy road. The tide was in so the icy water was crashing against the rocky shore. When we arrived we looked around a Albatros museum. It showed how much plastic albatroses eat and the insides of their bodies. It also showed the life cycle of an Albatros.  Next we walked down a walking track with heaps of army hiding places. We saw a Chinese boat drive past. Then we walked over to a lookout and watched the sparkling water crash up against the massive rocks. Long, slimy pieces of seaweed kept splashing into the big waves of the sea. 
THAT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY HOLIDAYS!
