Beach ED

On February the 7th we went to Waihi beach, we started off with a quiz witch the prize was sand I found it funny that they won sand. After the quiz we went on a tour witch they showed us there recuse boat called I.R.B witch stands for inflatable recuse boat.

After the tour we went inside to learn how to spot a rip tide its normally calm water but sometimes it could be white foam, we also learn't how to escape rip tides. Then we had morning tea then we played some games on the beach, the lifeguards showed us a game called beach flags witch you ran to get a flag before the other player did I got out on the first round. Then we played seaweed witch I got out on the second round we played it a couple of times.

Then we had something to eat, we then went swimming I fell over most of the time because the waves were to strong even tho the waves were to strong I still had a lot of fun in the water.  

Three Things that I learn't!

1. How to spot a rip tide and how to escape one

to escape one you need to float on your back and put your hand up.

2. That they have a recuse boat called the I.R.B and they only need two people to operate it. 

3. That that some people use rip tides for surfing.
