A couple of hours through my experience the sun disappeared, my body trembled with fear because I distinctly remember the weather forecast saying that it was going to be sunny and cloudless. The sky filled up with grey clouds and the atmosphere was dark and misty. I feared for my life. It appeared to be a thunderstorm. Suddenly the waves grew fierce and tossed me to one side, I fell unconscious.
I began to dream that I was on a flying carpet and that I also had a genie in a lamp. The genie granted me three wishes; my first wish was that I was very tall and skinny, (that was because I’m short and a bit tubby). The genie granted my wish but it went terribly wrong because I grew and grew and grew very tall until my head reached way up into the sky.
Then I woke up. My body had been floating in the water while I was knocked out. It felt like someone was playing loud music in my ear. I also felt dizzy and exhausted, but I knew I had to carry on to achieve goal. I began to get into my techniques I did the backstroke, the breaststroke, the butterfly and I did the doggy paddle when my whole body ached. My adventure was not living up to my expectations, I felt abet bored of just swimming on the surface of the sea, I decided I was going to explore the under world of the sea.
I wiped the inside of my goggles and took a deep plunge underwater. I saw a whole new world in front of my two eyes and for the first time I could see everything very clearly. Loads of tiny fish scurried past me waggling their little tails as they moved. As I swam deeper into the heart of the sea, I saw a variety of species all multicoloured. I saw a fish which had a bubble around it’s body and inside the bubble, blues, greens, yellows, oranges, purples, reds, and silver colours flashed very brightly almost blinding my eyes. I saw lots of kelp, seaweed and plants growing on the seabed, dark caves coming to life with fish and other animals suddenly springing from places that humans couldsee it was simply extraordinary.
I had explored enough new things to last me a lifetime. As I looked up I captured a sight only known above the sea, it looked like a perfect night sky filled with shooting stars and tiny bright but slightly out of focus in my eyes it looked like a simple sea surface. It looked like a perfect night sky filled with shooting stars and tiny bright stars but slightly out of focus in my eyes it looked like a simple sea surface.
Then I was lifted out of the water by a strong force given to me to carry on with my journey. I began to get hunger pains, through all of my excitement I had forgot to pack a supply of food. After four days of travelling, I was now desperate to eat anything, even raw fish. I had to eat something, I saw a juicy fish floating not too far from my fight side, it looked dead. I swam over to the fish grabbed it and took a big bite out of the fish’s left side. I was no longer hungry and was strong enough to carry on.
With the guidance and company of the sun I battled through the sea until I saw land. Could I have reached France after 5 days of sea, I fixed my eyes on a sign and as I got nearer to land it said “Welcome to France”. This made me more determined to swim ashore. I began to sprint swim to shore. I felt exhausted my legs and arms barely help me up but I had made it and my burning ambition was fulfilled.
