sailing


It was a cold autumn afternoon in Sweden and the wind was blowing hard. Me and my friends had decided it was perfect weather for sailing. Having seen the wild waves had made us really excited and we assumed the waves meant the speed would be thrilling! We had only left the beach and caught a last sight of our home -island when we capsised. The water was freezing and as we tried to turn the boat right we felt our legs become numb. When we had been in the water for something that felt like an eternity , a police boat came by and rescued us. When we came back home it turned out our other friends had tried to call us for ages and they had become very worried! Luckily our hypothermia was minor and all we needed to recover was a cup of tea.
