When I was a boy, I liked swimming very much. One year my two brothers and I spent the summer holidays with my uncle and aunt in their house by the sea. It was only twenty metres from the water. Every day we put on our swimming shorts before breakfast, and then ran down to the sea and jumped in soon after we finished it. When our aunt rang the bell, we went back to the house for food, but we ate it in our swimming shorts and were soon back in the sea again until late in the afternoon.
The water was warm, and the sun was bright every day. Sometimes there was a light wind. It was good for swimming. We all swam very well. We were tired but how happy we were!
