Summer Camp at Compo

It was hot summer’s day at Camp Compo. It was sunny with only one cloud in the sky.  The beach was crowded, especially for a Friday.  I was happy because Emily, Sasha and I were at camp together.  We went to the edge of the water to swim. I dipped my toe into the water.  It was so cool and refreshing. We took a few steps back and ran knee deep  into the water. 

Our counselors called to us to warn us about jellyfish in the water.  I didn’t see anything.  Suddenly, I felt something wrap around my ankle.  I reached down and grabbed at it.  It was slimy and felt like tentacles.  When it brought it to the top of the water, I realized that it was only seaweed.  I felt embarrassed. Did my friends see how scared I was?  No, because they were playing in the water.
