Under the Sea and other Stories | Page 5

As I approached Billy, I could see the beautiful reefs that were emerald green. I was swimming behind him when I realized that a beautiful turtle with wonderful blue eyes was swimming very slowly next to us. As we got deeper, we could see a lot of different types of fish of different colors, like electric blue, strawberry red. We felt like in another world, everything was so peaceful and fascinating but when we got deeper we started to shiver because it was so cold. We could see some fish swimming above us and covering us with their shadows.

I looked behind and above and I saw the beautiful boat that we had paid for to come and snorkel. I remembered that at first I was so scared because I thought that a shark could eat us and I also thought that the ship was so expensive. But Billy told me “Come on! You will enjoy it very much!”, by taking me by the hand to the boat.

As it was so dark, we decided to go up. The turtle was still watching us. Suddenly, another turtle with red spots and round, red, sparkling eyes appeared. Both started playing. I was recording everything in my camera because it was a beautiful sight and I wanted to remember for the rest of my life. After that, the turtles left the corals and started swimming to their shelter. So we decided to follow them. They reached some beautiful corals that had a hidden entrance where they entered. There were a lot of different types of turtles, some had wonderful blue spots, and other had sparkling yellow eyes. We were fascinated.

The night was coming, so we had to leave this incredible place. Back in the boat, we watched the video of my camera. It was such an exciting experience and when you see it you felt like if you were snorkeling with all that wonderful types of fish. We decided to upload it to you-tube.

Five minutes later, we had a hundred likes!
