In the afternoon, we decided to hire a boat for an hour. I was on a boat for two people with by bigger brother and we pedalled far away from the shore. Initially it was fantastic. We stopped and I jumped into the waater. I swam and when I looked around I discovered that the boat was far away and I was alone in the sea far away from the shore. When I started to scream, my brother pedalled quickly to rescue me. I was very frightened but fartunatelly I was safe.
