That long drive from Morrinsville to Waihi we were finally there. As I grabbed my boogie board in a rush I saw a jet boat race. I had never seen a jet boat race on the beach. I wanted to watch it but the waves were so big. Then I ran into the water to catch some waves, they were massive. When the waves hit me the force was so powerful it pulled my legs down to the ground. The waves clobbered me, but luckily I could catch them in. I rode tonnes of waves. When I ran out of sun block we quickly ran under the umbrella and got some more. When I got back out there I went out a little deeper the rip was crazy. Then I saw some fish in the waves when they were heading towards me. Mum and Dad said we had to go but I just didn’t want to. In the end I had to and yes I did go. It was a beautiful day down on the coast and I had a super fun time.
