Mum, Tamati and Ariki went to England to visit our cousin Henry a week after Ariki got out of hospital. Ariki was still pretty tired so we tried not to overdo it, but we did manage to full a whole suitcase with books, went to the local fair, had English fish and chips, mince pies, subway and chedder cheese - yum! (mum said we had to let you know that we had healthy food too).
Uncle Alban took the Friday off work and we went to legoland with Henry. Mum had to push Ariki around in a wheelchair because it was too far for him to walk, but it worked out really well and meant that he was able to go on some of the rides because he wasn’t feeling too tired.
Our favourite ride was the cars which we could drive ourselves. We had to stay on the left side and stop for traffic lights, there was even a roundabout and petrol station, it was really cool. We think we are better drivers than mum and dad now. Henry was too little for this ride but he went on the smaller cars and drove too – he was really good.
There were roller coasters and other rides and heaps of lego sculptures everywhere. Some of them like the Egyptian guard, were huge. It was a great day and we bought some star wars Lego on the way out and heaps of the little Lego men.
On the last day mum and Catherine went shopping (more books) and we stayed with Henry and Alban and built Thomas train tracks for Henry. Mum said that everyone had built so many for us that we had lots of catching up to do, but we actually really like doing them
