Fun at the Beach

A couple of days ago, we went to the beach. We all brought our goggles, and I decided to go exploring. For a while, I searched along the sand for cool shells and whatnot...Then, I spotted the rock wall. Dragging Alex along, I swam over to the wall, only to discover that the water gets to be about five feet deep right next to the wall (while a couple feet away, it is merely inches) I swam over there, Avoiding the rocks right next to me, and saw fish!!! Small ones, medium ones, one foot long ones, striped ones, spotted ones, blue and green and silver ones... It was cool. The best thing we saw (besides the ones I named Bob and Boberta (although Anna named the same two Nilly and Gilly) the big blue and green ones with the stripes) was a cuttlefish! Me and Alex saw it at the same time, and started screaming (underwater) (sounds really weird) and pointing frantically at it. I saw its backside (a big fat brown blob with white flappy things on its side) and alex saw the front (two eyes and tentacles attatched to a rock) You see, I tried taking pictures of all these cool things, but unfortunately NONE of them came out. The fish (or I) were always moving. The only ones that came out were these small skinny yellow ones with pointy noses (which looked like yellow smears in the picture) Oh well. But today is bound to be even better! We're going on the underwater trail that I talked about in a previous post. I'm so excited! I hope I can capture some of the fish with my camera, 'cause they're so cool! :) If I don't post the pictures today, I will tomorrow.

au revior for now,
