Hangi day

On Thursday after school some men 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 tarpaulins and covered with dirt to keep steam in.3 hours later we finally got to eat it. I thought the food was disgusting
