Oops! I forgot to mention what we got to do in the few days leading up to our Gisborne trip. The most important thing being we got to tour one of the sets of Lord of the Rings in Hobbiton in Matamata! That was pretty amazing, and of course Petesa absolutely loved it. We took Langima'a and Sekope with us because they had never been.
After the tour they took us to Auckland to see what the city is really like. We got to see the coastline for the first time right at sunset. It was really beautiful and peaceful with the city in the background. Then our aunt and uncle drove us through the city so we could see the sights and the main streets. It was a really fun tour and so nice of them to do that for us.
On the way back to Hamilton we stopped at the youth church camp most of our cousins were at. We got to see them perform! They did motions and actions for a mixture of songs. Apparently the minister and person that runs the camp really appreciated what our cousin's youth group put together for the camp. We got some pictures of them performing to show the family in Tonga.
It was a really nice day with Langima'a and Sekope, so I thought I should share it with everyone. I will post pictures of Auckland.
Goodnight!
