I close my eyes and try not to think about how cold the pool could be. I slowly bend my knees and lift off. SPLASH! I hit the water and before I know what I’m doing, I’m swimming up to breathe. As I swim towards a platform I think to myself I’ve done it, I’ve jumped off the diving board! Once I reach the wet and slippery platform, I sit down to catch my breath. I feel like I’ve been chased by a shark! Quickly I dive into a warm pool which feels so good! After that I decide to have some fun and go down the small purple waterslide. When I get off I feel as if Earth is spinning! I lay out my fluffy blue towel and flop down on it, wrapping the edges around my shoulders. When Mum hands me an ice cream I can feel it running down my chin. What a wonderful day!
