We watched a <strong>turtle</strong> crawl across the sand and saw a boat <strong>floating</strong> on the waves. Through the bus <strong>window</strong>, we had spotted a <strong>rainbow</strong> stretching over a flower <strong>garden</strong>. In the afternoon, dark clouds rolled in and we heard <strong>thunder</strong>. Back at home, I made a <strong>painting</strong> of the <strong>sunset</strong>. Then I put my head on my <strong>pillow</strong> and dreamed about the sea."
