Our day started off in the Blue Pool with me pestering Mum and Dad and threatening to shoot them with my water pistol if they didn’t come in the pool. In the end Ah-boo came in and I shot her up with my trusty water gun. I got a bit bored so I swam with Ah-gong to the infinity pool where we watched the waves and the baby elephant. Then at last Dad came in. Even though all he did was haul me around the pool and make me do somersaults, I had good fun.
Later on in the day, Dad, Mum, Ah-gong and Ah-boo came with me to my Muay Thai boxing lesson. Firstly, the instructor strapped on a bandage thing onto both of my hands. He then brought us to a Muay Thai Training dojo. Then I saw the other boy who was taking the lesson with me. His name was unknown, but all I knew was that he was way older than me and he had done lots of Muay Thai training before.
First of all he taught us how to do jabs and hooks. These were very irrelevant because in Karate, doing a hook could get you a penalty in sparring. Anyway, I tried my best at hitting and kicking the pads, and I could actually hear a loud ‘bang!’ every time I hit the pad! Mum was really impressed and promised to let me rent a PlayStation 2 in the room for 1 whole day!
In the evening, we were forced into going to this so called ‘party’. It was really uninteresting and I had to drag Dad out because he was buried into another conversion with another owner and I knew he wouldn’t stop. For dinner we went to an Italian restaurant called Cucina, and I tried to be a risk-taker and had a ‘Risotto el Funghi’. In actual fact the fungi stuff actually was really tasty.
