Water Skiing

For the first time this holiday I went to the East Coast Park water ski cable park. I checked on my bike early morning and went back to the apartment and had breakfast, which was delicious. I had to do the dishes so I rushed them and sprinted of to my bicycle at the back of the car park. I undid the lock and cycled really fast up to the top of the car park. Then I remembered that my sister had the money and could not go without her to the cable ski park. She finally reached where I was standing on my bike. She was cross that I didn't wait for her by her bicycle down in the car park.

My sister and I raced each other to the underground passage and who ever won could do whatever they wanted to the other person. I won as always and I am not a mean brother so I said I would do nothing to my sister. We climbed up the stairs by the underground passage and were able to go up hill, cross the highway on a bridge, go downhill and cross the road until we were in the East Coast Park. My sister was a bit slow so I had to wait, until we could race to the ski park. My sister went ahead but she had a passage that was on the outside, and since I was on the inside I was ahead and won again. We got the wrist bands and went off to go water skiing.

Here I go, I was first in line and on my first round. My sister chose the wakeboard and she was right behind me. I now was on my second round when my sister fell off at the last turn. Too bad she had to walk back in the line that was building up every few minutes. My sister was off again by the time I was on the my sixth round, this time she made the last turn and I was on my eighth round, my hand started to hurt a bit so I went in between two marks and that meant I was finished with my go.

I stood in line, luckily it went really fast so I was up and going again in no time. This time I did 18 rounds and the instructor said I had to stop because the crowd was building up and I was doing too many rounds. Then went off again and only did 4 rounds because there were people in the way and I could not pass. I was very happy with myself and couldn’t wait to tell my family.
