Text Blog Entry 7 - Diploma Trip

Last week we had a wonderful Diploma Trip to the beach. We were afraid it would be raining because the weather the day before had been very dirty. But it fortunately changed for our trip and it became a lovely day. My raincoat I brought with me became useless but I didn't complain. Ron took Miah, Amman, Hani and me in his big van with him to the cafe La Vinci. We had a coffee there and a short conversation before we went on to the Huia Point. The road to Huia Point was windy and went through a very nice landscape. We enjoyed the nice view at Huia point and waited for the others who lost Ron because of his fast -formula one- driving style. Here is a picture from the view:



When the others finally arrived at Huia Point and had a look around we drove to Cornwallis Beach. I liked this beach very much with its fine sand and lush green coastline.





Miah, Amman and me had a little walk along the beach and were lucky to talk about something different than school. When we came back we realized we were hungry and so we could benefit from what everyone had brought to the shared lunch. The tables were packed with food and I couldn't even try from every meal. But especially a shrimp and a chicken salad will be in good memory forever. I also tried a delicious mandarin cake and a Chinese speciality called Wo Kok. All of it was really good. There were so many other cakes, biscuits, fruits and even a tart. At the end I was stuffed like a goose on Christmas day. This was a really good trip.
