A tiring day out!

On Sunday,  I got ready to go to Rainbow’s End. However, in the last minute it got cancelled because of the weather.The weather was as bad as if a tornado was about to hit. So my mum decided that we were going to get a haircut. I was to get my haircut. Then it was my little brother’s turn and my dad was lucky last. 5 minutes into his haircut, My brother fell asleep. He slept as sound as a bear snuggling in bed.

After that, we went to Pak’n’Save to do our shopping. My brother and I said that we were going to stay in the car. Half an hour later, I thought to myself that I should've gone with my mum. My dad brought some school shoes for my sister and my mum and my little sister brought our food for the week.

They finally came out after 60 minutes. They took 60 minutes just to do the groceries. When they came back they packed the food into the car. We went home after that.

It was a tiring day because we went back and forth. I hope this kind of day doesn’t happen too often.
