Disneyland

On my third day in Los Angeles we went to Disneyland. I was so excited to go on the rides. We were going for five days three at Disneyland and two at California Adventure. Mum, Dad, Jackson and I walked down to Disneyland and walked through the gates. The excitement has just begun. 

The first day we went to Tomorrow Land , Toontown and Downtown Disney. We went on lots of different rides: undewater rides, spinning rides and more. We went during the 60 year celebration. We had fun. Jackson even lost his tooth while eating a hotdog.

Overall it was a great first day at Disneyland even if it was in 2015.

Kapahaka

On Thursday the 31st August the kapahaka group went to Mairehau high school to do a performance in front of 600 other kids and teachers.

First we got on the bus in our kapahaka uniforms to go to Mairehau high school. We had to practice our routine on the bus. We sang takahia paki, tutira mai nga iwi and e toru nga mea it took a while but we got there eventually.

When we arrived it had just started raining we walked into the hall and sat down in our places. There were some amazing performances and we had to pick the ones we liked so if we wanted to do them we could get the lyrics.

It was finally our turn we all walked up to the stage nervously we sat on the stage and waited silently. We had to sing very very loud so that everyone could hear us we pretty much had to yell.We finished and everyone clapped.

Overall it was super awesome morning I would do it again 100%.
