Starthere:
I felt completely submerged in water I saw brown long stick and the
golden brown sand felt smooth and the sand brush against my feet. I
slowly came up beneath the water I could see palm trees swaying in the
wind, a huge rock with a waterfall streaming down but I could see the
waterfall moving but I didnt hear the water droping it was weird I slightly
heard birds chirping in the background, the water was calm and soothing
on the rocks there were slight bits of moth stuck to the rock, it was a
beautiful island and was very tropical up on the top of the waterfall I saw
turtles swimming about in the lukewarm water they were having so much
fun.
