A Memorable Day At The Beach

This is story when I got my holiday on Kijing Beach, West Borneo. I went to the beach. While I was there, something happened to make this memorable day for me. I had started off early in the morning. When I arrived at Kijing Beach, there was not many people there yet. I sat down to gaze at the sea. Soon, however, the beach was crowded with picnickers. I changed into our swimming trunks and raced into the water. The water was cooling and refershing, and I swam until I was tired. The exercise had whetted our appette, so I ate my packed lunch. Then, I rested a while before going into the sea again. By mid-afternoon, most of swimmers had came out of the water to lie on the beach. I wanted to collect sea shells for my sister, so I took a walk along the shore. Suddenly, I saw a little girl about two years old running toward the sea. She went deeper and deeper into the water. Nobody notice her, so I ran after her. I reached her just as she got into trouble. She has lost balance and was sinking into the water. I picked her up and carried her to the shore. And then, her parents arrived on the scene. They had discovered that their was missing. The little girl's parents kept thinking me, which made us rather embarrassed. After that, I packed my things and go home.
