Free Writing 8

My Lonely Island continued...

.....From up there in the far, far horizon I can see a little bit of a second island and my turn point if I go swimming in the sea. A hill which is a bit looking out of the water so that a very small island reaches over the surface of the sea. If I swim I go up there and take a small break for 5 minutes and then swim back. If I am bored I am going diving in the riffs of my coast, in the blue, aquamarine type of coloured water. I take a small bamboo peace as a snorkel and start diving. There are multicoloured fishes, thousands of them, and rays and jellyfishes. There are also corallines. They are from yellow to purple to red they have every colour in the world. But the best thing about the diving is a sunken ship. I need to swim 500 meters to it but then I can explore it. It is totally rusty and destroyed its wrack is just 4 meters under me so I do not get tired of swimming. And in case the top of it (the watching point) reaches out of the surface so I can stand on it. I have no idea why but it is a German-delivery-boat from the Second World War (because it has a swastika on it). It has huge holes on its bottom so I guess a torpedo of an American submarine hit it. All in all my island is special, and that is what I like about it.
