I’ll have to tell you I love holidays. I suppose that’s normal, everyone loves holidays.
I don’t mean a week or 2, just a weekend away, something like that.
I have a treat coming up this weekend coming, I get to go on a holiday.
I get to go with a friend because my family all have a concert to go to and they can’t come so I get to go with a good friend. Last time I took my family, not this time though.
We are going to take a tent and camp, as I would normally do with my family. It’s a pretty good tent, about 12 foot square and canvas and really good quality so worth taking. Its heavy but I have a lighter tent that’s smaller but it’s going to rain and I want a good tent that will keep the rain out.
I don’t like getting up too early, I resist it when I can, but we have to go at 6 am on Friday. It’s a 3 hour trip to where we are meeting with some others, and we meet at 9.
But it’s not that much of a drama getting up early if you’ve got a holiday to get up for, like this weekend. And I’m looking forward to it so it’s not that much of a problem really.
I hope the car does ok, its not very old but its not new either and Id hate to think that the car let me down and didn’t make it there.
Saturday is going to be a free day for us. Nothing planned at all, just a hang about day to do what you want. I plan to take fishing gear along with me and do some fishing, in fact I bought a new fishing rod this morning. Sadly I broke my old fishing rod a while ago.
Despite the fact that I’m a girl I still love fishing.
My old rod was one I made a long long time ago. I bought the fibreglass blank and all the runners and made it myself and I’ve used it and used it heaps. I was pretty impressed with myself that I managed to make my own fishing rod, even some of the guys can’t do that.
I have no idea how I broke it. I was just walking through some trees and then suddenly I looked at it and the tip was broken off. What happened to it? Who knows. But it was a pretty sad day as I had used that rod so much, and loved it.
It wasnt worth a lot but it was to me though. I mean I made that rod myself, all by myself. And I broke it. So today I went back to the fishing shop and bought a new rod.
New fishing rods cost almost nothing. I paid about 30 bucks for a new one so it wasn’t that expensive really was it? But it isn’t the one I made.
So there’s the news about my weekend coming up. It won’t rain will it and I will catch a fish won’t I? Who knows but I’m looking forward to it.
