My Home Town

This is Point England, There is a school and a beach that you can amazingly visit during your stay.

The locals are very kind and greet you with a wave. 

This is my HomeTown where i lived for a year since i've moved from Glen Innes.

Here is 3 places you should visit.

#1

The Beach is awesome, you can jump off a mighty rock or go out fishing in the fishing area. 

it is mostly used by families, since it is a good place to spend time together or with just friends. 

it's really a active place where people eat with there food or play in the sea. 

 #2

Chinese 4 star takeaways - Point England.

These takeaways are amazing,served quick and taste delicious. I know because I'm friends with the amazing owners and loved there food they cook. might be one of the best places of all. Come down to Chinese food and fish and chips in point england reserve where every local loves the chips.

there isn't a lot to see in PointEngland, But there will be more i swear.

Thanks For Reading Have a Great Holiday!

Special Events - How Does Your Family Celebrate it??

On Special events like: Halloween and Christmas - Who cares about birthdays am i right? lets just get lots of presents on christmas and lollies on halloween. #Best2EventsEver. just kidding, don't take me seriously guy. but really those two are the best ;)

Lets talk about Christmas. It is where everyone comes together and celebrate the meaning of family and not only giving love but also receiving love in the presents you recieve.

For lots of people they involve culture into it by cooking and bringing traditional foods. Sadly my family isn't like that. But we make home made food. what isn't better then cooking food that you love to make with your family. To be honest it tastes way better then buying stuff from the Pizza shop or take aways.

Most events we make home made food except Halloween,Easter and Birthdays. We buy chocolate eggs and chocolates,Candies and birthday cakes and presents.

This is another task I have done during my holidays. Hope everyone  was safe on Christmas and New Years.

Hope to see you all in 2 more weeks.
