It was a fine lovely day today, Crystal's family was so excited because  they were going on a holiday to the beach. They had hired hired a HUGE beach-house. Little did they know they were speeding. As soon as they Crystal got to the beach-house, Swarrel she unpacked her hat, sunscream, towel and got out her surfboard and headed off to the recommended best surfing place.

Crystal loved surfing. To her it would be a dream, her passion to become world champion. Crystal never had surfing lessons. she watched people in real life and on television.

Then as she was doing a 360 she thought she saw a shark fin. She paddled up to the shore and ran as fast as her legs would cary her to the beach. She didn't see where she was going and tripped over the leg of the chair, she accidently broke the chair leg and her bone as well. Crystal's mother was bringing out the rubbish and saw tha Crystal had hurt her leg badly. She immediatle dropped the trash and ran over to help Crystal.

Crystal's mother carried her home to the beach-house and bandaged up her leg. Everyday Crystal read books and helped around the house. She thought the holiday was such a waste because she couldn't even surf at such a good beach like this. 

One day she sat on a rock and let her legs dangle in the water. She was reading a book called Dolphins, Whales and Sharks. Then she saw the fin again. Hey wait a minute, Crystal thought about something. She realised that what she thought she saw before was not a shark fin but a dolphin fin. Crystal thought in her head, "IT'S ALL A BIG MISTAKE.IT'S NOT FAIR, I WANT TO GO SURFING!!!!!!!!!!"

The next day Crystal saw the dolphin fin again. It seemed like the dolphin wanted to be friends with her. Since her leg was alittle better, she took off her bandage, hel onto the fin and let the dolphin pull her through the water. It felt so good.

Each day Crystal would play with the dolphin. Eventually Crystal's leg was fully healed. Soon they had to leave again. Crystal relised that beach holidays weren't just about surfing. They were about relaxing and having fun.
