Bobby went over on the beach and picked up an old dried out coconut.
He went down to the water and threw the coconut out in the sea. He walked back to the sand and sat there watching the coconut for about an hour. The coconut headed away from the island as he gured as good as he could. So this raft would go in that direction but the raft is here. So the direction must be on the otherside!
Bobby pulled the raft into the sea and pushed it the way he had came. It was great to be in the water and not being cooked in the sun. As he was pushing it it was getting very easy until he looked forward and saw Snickers pulling a rope on the front of the raft! This dolphin was always saving me! How could I not love this dolphin?
After half an hour I climbed up on the raft and fell asleep. I had dreams of being at home with my mom and dad. Sleeping in my bed. Everything was back to normal until I woke up to a full stop. I got out of my slumber and looked forward and saw my hut! Wow! I was back to what I called home. I looked behind me and I didn't see Snickers. What I saw was a big turtle. Was it Roxy? Turtles look alike but this one was looking at me quizzically. Like she was concerned that I was okay.
I walked up to the hut and laid down thinking. Things were coming together. The currents went back the way I came. I now had a raft that would hold me. If there was a storm? How would I protect myself? I have the life jacket. I can pile coconuts on the raft. I needed a canopy for shade. And then water! How was I going to have enough to drink? Dad said you need water more than food.
Snickers!
