Dream home

Yesterday I met my uncle Ken! Ive never met him before, so it was good to finally meet him. We went out to dinner and had a good time. Today we checked out of the hotel and took a ferry to Waiheke (wyhikkie) island. We rented a little cottage next to the beach, it's really lovely. My dad lived here during summer break, when he was attending Dilworth, and the old farm is here. We visited where the farm was, but it's mainly a vineyard now, with a few other houses on the edge. After that, we went down to the beach and walked a ways to a bunch of rocks and tide pools and scrambled around. We found some really lovely shells, my favorites being the scallops I found. The man who is renting us the cottage has a nice house behind it, and he has alpacas! We got to feed them, it was so fun! (6 days till Christmas!)
