Starting the Trip

We spent a week preparing for this trip. The day had finally arrived and there was the buzz of thirty excited kids chatting amongst themselves. Mr. Woody was frantically trying to organise us, but we wanted none of it. But we just wanted to scream our heads off. We packed the bus quickly and carried our noise into the confined area. We finally start the first stage of our towards Kawhia harbour where we are going to stay the night at the local hikers lodge.
