Hangi Day

On Thursday after school Harry and his dad and Cruz's dad came to our school to dig a Hangi pit. Early on Friday morning they returned to light the fire. By the time I got to school the fire was roaring and smoke was billowing out. We got to look at the fire and it was explained to us that the wood iron had to be 'white hot!
Later we went back and they wet the fire and put wet cabbage leaves in to create steam we watched them lower the food in there were 3 big baskets. They put on more wet cabbage leaves and wet sacks. covered it with a tarpoline and covered with dirt to keep the steam in. 3 hours later we finally got to eat I thought the food was kinda good.
