Going to granddad's for the first time

Vroom Vroom Vroom
The vehicle starts. I spring up out of my bed and rush, rush get to the vehicle.
"Mum Dad where are we going?"
"I am not going to tell you."
One hour later we are half way there and we were hungry and tired.
Mince pies for lunch on the way ... my favourite. Me, Derek and Mum play the game red blue for hours. Finally we are there! We rush to the door.
Knock Knock ... Granddad!!
Granddad's house is part caravan with little area of a house beside it. Inside the little box is a computer in a cupboard. It is painted white. When we walk through into the caravan there is a double bed, a fold out double bed and two couch beds. In there is also a fridge in the wall and a stove just ticking out. The drawer under the fridge has the washing machine. It was a real bach.
I was looking forward to going fishing and all of the fun things I could do on the beach with Granddad.        
When we got there we only had one scooter that Derek and I shared. We always fought over it but when we went to ride on our scooter Granddad came out with his old scooter. It was black, a bit rusty with a blades logo on the side. We were having a great time scootering until Derek charged me head on with the scooter and I quickly swept to the side of the path. Derek fell off, jumping from the scooter into the grass. Derek kept on going ... going ... jumped off the scooter into the grass patch. The scooter smash smack screeching along the concrete. A piece here. A piece there. That was the end of that scooter.
And this is just one of our many adventures at granddad's place.
