not spoil the fun though .
During the first couple of days we went on all of the rip-roaring rides
and slides and took part in the parades and gals that flashed by us .
Its so different to how it all looks in the travel brochers and on the
television . You must be there yourself to experience the magic !
Everything was going brilliantly on the holiday until the seventh day of
the trip when my mum decided that we were going to have a day on
one of the whitewashed beaches of Florida .
The morning went well . We were catching the sun and tanning our
skin and we were licking delicious ice-creams quickly before they
had time to melt in our hands . Beachballs were bouncing around and
buckets and spades were building up sandcastles . It was like
paradise , believe me . Then i went into the sea for a swim . This is
when one of the most embarrasing moments of my life occured .
As the water changed from ice knife-stabbing coldness to warmth as
i gradually got used to it i said to myself " wow , this is gorgeous "
and i began to head for shore . As i did this i pretended that i was
being chased by a shark like in the film 'Deep Blue Sea' . I was
swimming so fast that my shorts slid off down past my ankles and
were dragged away by the strong Atlantic current ." What was i going
to do now ? , I tought to myself . My head spun with anxiety and i was
absolutely petrified . I somehow had to make it to shore and onto our
patch on the beach without nobody noticing . It didnt work and i was
seen naked by nearly everybody . They were rolling around with
laughter . I have never been so embarrassed. I hung my head in
shame . I wish all of you guys could have been there to help me out .
At about five o ' clock we all made our way back to the hotel onboard
the minibus silent for the whole journey I went straight to my hotel
room and sulked for hours thinking over and over about what had
happened . Then all of a sudden it occured to me that it was all a
laugh .If it had been someone else i would have cracked up too . So
i jumped off of my bouncy bed and skipped aloong to Dinner where
my mum and sister were already eating their beefburgers . I sat
down pretending to be all upset and serious . Then i looked up and
burst out in hysterics . We all giggled and cackled like laughing
hyenas !
I had given myself , my mum and my sister one of the most
memorable moments of a magical holiday. I just wish that you had all
been there with me !
