Aidan's post

Hi, Aidan here. Hope you like my first post! :) 

On the weekend after week one of this school term Mom and I decided to go biking around the lake near our house. We saw many cool sights but as you can see below, our favorite ones were the goslings- I mean cygnets. We knew they were baby swans, or cygnets, but both of us kept forgetting and calling them goslings by accident. I had loads of fun but I could have asked for more photos to blog about. I hope you like it!

Me, in an unusually still action shot-it is much easier to see me. 

I climbed this tree, sort of.

Here are some black swans with their g-cy-g-cy-g-cy-their babies. (most of these photos are Mommy's)

Here are the parseltongue speaking swans...(look below)

...in action!They had cute cygnets. (Finally I remembered it)

We were trying to make it to Two mile bay, we made it to Secombe Park-near three mile bay. These bays are named according to how far they are from our town, even though they don't use miles to measure distance in New Zealand. Also, for what ever reason, they put 3 1/2 mile bay on there.

 We over achieved, not really paying attention to signs. On the way back, there would have been a lot of hills, so to avoid any steep incline we took to the long way, right past our old house!  I had a great time and I worked up an appetite, so did Jasper.
