Last summer i went to a survival swimming class. For two weeks we were taught different strokes in swimming and we were made to stay for hours in the water without holding on to anything or touching the floor of the pool. After ten days, we went to the beach to test how much we learned. We were stepping on the skid and hanging on at the sides while the helicopter took off (skids are the bars protruding on the the sides of a helicopter that serve as its legs when it's landed on the ground).It was a little scary because we were so high up there and we know that if we don't hold on tight we might fall. The pilot brought us up to the sea, one mile from the shore, and we were made to jump and then swim to land without any life vest or anything to keep us afloat. It was so fun and we were all able to finish without any accident. What about you? Do you have any fun and exciting adventure like that?
