I looked over the edge of the bridge wishing there would be The King Troll under it, snarling his face at me! I had been to every single bridge in the world and all those bridges USED to have little purple and yellow trolls…  This bridge, in Avignon, was my last hope. I grasped my troll catcher net in my hands and cautiously peered over. A huge roar scared every single person on the bridge. This is going to be the best day of my life I thought. The King Troll was the trickiest to catch. This wasn’t going to be easy!

It was lovely day for the plane ride over to Avignon France

It’s going to be amazing. When I got to France I had a hotel to go to for a couple of days before I set up my own residence, after a couple of days, my stuff was getting put in my house while I was getting my stuff moved in to my house so I went for a walk around the river and saw a bridge, so I walked across it and it stopped half way there was a sign that said, “Avignon France bridge end turn around and go back.

I went to Avignon bridge in France. The bridge of Avignon was started along long time ago. The bridge use to be so long and went right across the water, it had arches and it was wide, But after a terrible siege, three quarters of the bridge was destroyed.. It was repaired but then destroyed again from a flood. But now three quarters remain and is a great tourists attraction. It has a chapel in the middle of the bridge. The bridge is amazing and so beautiful. People love watching the boats come past while on the end of the bridge. I really enjoyed spending my time there.

There is an amazing place in France named Avignon. In Avignon there was this rather weird bridge what lead to nowhere! One day on the bridge of Avignon all I could see were lake and the hungry seagulls flying around peoples picnics. In the distance I could see huge green trees dancing, and I could feel the cold breath of wind hover round me. I could hear the huge hungry seagull’s crow because I was teasing it with my delicious croissant. This was the most amazing sight every seen. It was like a dream come true!!

We were going on holiday in France this week I can't wait we went down to the airport and got on the plaine. It was a 5 hour trip to France and when we got there it was stinking hot so we went and checked in at the motel we were staying at the view was incredible. There was a big bridge and a park straight in front of us the water was really brown and murky. Tomorrow we are going to the ifle tower and it will be awesome I can't wait

One day I woke up and got ready for school. Then mum said “Pack your bags were going to France for two weeks. OF course I ran to my room and packed over half my clothes and ran to the car and put my suitcase in there. So we drove down to the airport and headed off to France. The first thing we did was going onto a tourist boat and we saw this awesome as bridge it was so cool I took fifty photos of it. After that we went home to new Zealand and had a look of the photos we took.

It was time i thought as mum told me that she was going on a holiday, she has so much going in her head at the moment. She said they where going to France in Avignon, she was so pleased. Later that night she showed me a picture of the bridge in Avignon i was blown away but a little confused because it cut of like that. The next morning it was time for mum to leave she got up at AM to catch the plane, she said her goodbyes then left me in charge of my younger siblings (as i am 17) she walked outside and that was the last i saw of her

It was such a nice honey-moon and Dan had been so sweet the whole time. On the second day in France we went to a bridge in Avignon. It was nice and sunny but I’d forgotten a hat so Dan bought me one from a stall. After I put it on, we walked across the bridge, hand in hand, and we were just quietly talking and laughing when Dan came to a stop. “What is it?” I asked. “Look in front of you.” So I did. I hadn’t realised, because I’d been staring at Dan, that the bridge had ended. Half way across the river.

It was a sunny day in France. I was taking my dog Bob for a walk. We were walking along the side of the river when I decided that we should go to the other side of the river. So we walked to the closest bridge and started to walk along it. When we got half way across the river I stopped, right in front of me was a brick wall with a sign saying “end of bridge turn around and go back.” I thought why finish a bridge half way across a river. I decided to ignore it and go back home.

I was so excited when we boarded the plane to Avignon France I can just relax all holiday and it would be nice to take a break from school but of course I knew that we would be sightseeing and our first sight was half a bridge “why can’t we just cut a bridge In nz in half” I said no one listened. Then I saw people jumping of the end of the bridge I looked in the bag we had brought and saw the towels and spare clothes, I knew what I was about to do I stared down.

I was traveling through France. When I got to a very big town called Avignon, I noticed a bridge, not your every day bridge, but half a bridge. It was a tourist  attraction. So I decided to go down and have a look. It looked as if the side had been blown off. A police dive squad was in the water, a diver popped out holding a World War 2 bomb, that looked like it had already gone off. They took it away in a special armed truck. The next day I was reading the paper and it said "a police dive squad had found the bomb that blown up the side of the bridge".

Once upon a time there was a chicken named Beak.
Beak wasn't a normal chick he had black feathers with a yellow butt. Every day the little chicken would waddle around and the other little chicks would laugh at him. so one day the baby chick made some pants out of paper. but they were the wrong size so he had to make a bigger pair so he stole some of his owners shorts cut out the materiel and make some new pants and they were very sylish. the next day everyone asked why are you wearing pants and he said "my but is yellow" . every one else liked the pants so went and made there own and no Beak had started a new fashion.

One day I woke up, and got changed. Ate my breakfast, brushed my teeth, combed my hair and headed off to work. It was a nice sunny day and I was enjoying myself until a stupid policeman pulled me over and said, “hey son you do realize that you just caused an accident back there. “How I said”. “Well you went through a red light”, “But it was yellow”. But he didn’t believe me because he is one dumb police officer. So I drove off with a 200$ fine in my pocket and I walked into the office of my work and I sat down.

When I went to work at the electricity company, I had to fill in for my boss as he had become sick; I’d never done this before and didn’t know too much about it, I said yes anyway. The day went on until something went wrong, the pressure gauge was going in the red zone, this was my job to fix but I hadn’t been trained to fix it. I got some of my co-workers to help me they said to press the red button so I did and then I said “it’s not working,” they said “but it is yellow, now green!” that day I got a promotion.

As I biked home from school, the police pulled me over. They said I drove over a red light, but its yellow I exclaimed! He said he would let me off on a warning, but if I do it again he will give me a fine. So I went on my way towards home. I was on my way home from school the next day, I stopped at the traffic light that I had been pulled over on the day before. As I was about to cross the police car went over the red light, with no siren and he didn't look like he was In any urgency. I just laughed and carried on.

I look up I see this huge mountain. I can’t wait I’m jumping and running around waiting for the teacher to say go. Come on lads lets go finally we can make a start I’m so excited to get to the top. It is so cold I feel like a snowman but I keep going, we are about half way up and it feels like were walking up Mount Everest. Now we’re nearly there, I look ahead and I see the top, I start running as if i was beating Usain Bolt. I get to the top and dive like I’m scoring a rugby try to win the world cup.

"MUM I can't possibly wear this rag to the ball as I have worn it to one already!" I yell from my bedroom on the 4th floor of our castle. Mum doesn't hear me so I stomp down the stairs and yell at her again. "Why not?" She says, "everyone has already seen me in it so I need a new one!" I say grumpily. "Ok darling" says Mum. We hop in our chauffeured car and go to the shops. After looking around five different shops and trying on numerous dresses, Mum points at one and I just look and say to her "but it's yellow!"

There once lived a girl named Lucy, she liked to play football and run races. Once she came to play a football game with her friends at the local field they played around about two games until Molly (one of Lucy’s friends) accidently kicked Lucy’s favourite ball to these weird, mean boys. Molly, Lucy and Sophia all ran to the boys and asked nicely all they said were “here this is our flat ball”. As they walked away Lucy yelled at the top of her voice “BUT IT IS YELLOW!!!” Lucy hated yellow; it was her worst colour for some little reasons.

It was a nice sunny day so I decided to go for a walk in the park. My brother tagged along. When we got to the park . There was only one bench at the park and it was taken my an old couple watching there grandchildren play on the swings, so we sat on the grass. We looked up at the clouds my brother pointed one out that looked like a dragon. He then said " do you know that the colour of the sun apparently is orange" then I said "but it is yellow". We then just decided that it doesn't matter. Even though I was right
