Swimming with the stingrays
The boat slowly pushes its way through the crystal clear salt water channel. With the blistering heat beating down on us. We were going to swim with the stingrays I knew This is gonna be the one of the best day ever.

I call out to the captain “How long is the boat ride.”

“About 10 to 15 minutes at the most” the captain said.

“So not to long” I just had to ask I couldn't wait to get to the sand bar about 10 miles out.”yes I think I see it”there were about 20 to 30 boats in one spot it was crazy.There were people jumping up and down in the water even though they were not supposed to because if you land on a stingray you might kill it.

“Hey mom come over here I have a sting ray laying in my arms”.She come running over to me all soaking wet while my little sister was still crashing and running through the water causing them to scatter.

“Sarah stop you are making them all go away”

    The sound of a whistle followed by cheering and the camera showing the wheel handle turning signals to the viewer that the boat has landed and the troops are getting ready to run onto the beach. Following that, the quick change of camera shots make the pace of the film change from slow paced building up the tension to fast paced full of action. As soon as the bridge of the boat drops, the soldiers at the front of the boat are shot down in quick succession.…

    For many people, water is a source of relaxation and comfort, while others believe that it can be dangerous and deceiving, but often times people do not look at what lives among it. Whether it is a body of fresh water, or a body of salt water, many creatures lurk among the depths of seas, oceans, lakes, and rivers without gaining the attention of human beings. With this, a plethora of sea creatures that tend to remain hidden can harm human beings. People believe that sharks are the deadliest sea creature on the planet, however, this is a false statement. Sharks are most known for their terrifying attacks on humans, but they lack the qualities of a deadly creature. Brute force and sharp teeth can only take this animal so far and many attacks do not result in death. Sharks are vicious and frightening animals, but there is not one creature throughout the Earth’s oceans that is more deadly than the box jellyfish. This aquatic monster has placed fear into the entire world with the lethality it has displayed toward humans.…

    Curious to see the ever moving stingrays up close I leened over the side of the boat with my camera to examine them. Those stingrays had some very distinktiv features! Its heads were dome-shaped. They had broad blunt noses that seperated their inconspicuous eyes. When they jump out of the water I could see their funny mouths, it looked as if they were smiling. The rays were much biggest than I thought at first, their "wingspan" was about three feet. Because the stingray over lapped each other and turned side ways as they swum I could see that their undersides was pale yellow, like…

    It was very shallow at ebb tide, and their ship stood up so that it was far to see from the ship to the water. But so much did they desire to land that they did not give themselves time to wait until the water again rose under their ship, but ran at once on shore at a place where a river flows out of a lake. But so soon as the waters rose up under the ship, then took they boats, and rowed to the ship, and floated it up the river, and thence into the lake, and there cast anchor, and brought up from the ship their bedding, and set up tents.…

    Attention Getter: Breathe slowly. Do not hold your breath. Equalize early and often. Stay off the seafloor. These are a few of the thoughts going through my mind while descending on my first open-water dive in Monterey, California. I hear the eerie silence, interrupted only by the sound of water surging past me. As the salty water trickles through my regulator and into my mouth, I feel the cold rush toward my bare face, the only exposed part of my body. I look through my goggles and see absolutely stunning animals and organisms that most people will only see in books and pictures. I see coral and kelp, fish and sea stars, just swaying with the ocean - their home.…

    I fell on the boat ramp laughing my tail off. Finally, we got our boats in the water and started packing them down with our supplies. I have never seen so much supplies for a one day trip. We had to make about five trips to get everyone down there and our supplies on the sandbar which is called Little Sugar Loaf. We had about 13 people on that sandbar we were staying that night. We started out by finding a spot and setting up our tents. It didn't take me that long to set up my tent. I mostly helped other set up their tents and sleeping bags and other supplies. There were about four kids that had to carry wood for the fireplace. While others were setting up the grill and lights for tonight. The sun was so hot I was about ready to get in the cool muddy water. I got my chores done for the tents and my buddies and I went swimming in the…
