My Morning Exercise
by Roy Morris
The story is about exercise.
     I like to swim in the morning before the sunrise. When I was living in Jamaica, where the weather was 80° Fahrenheit all year round, the water was warm and inviting, the sand was yellowish white.
     I started to run first, then swam out into the sea for miles to get a good workout.
Caribbean beach
     I would dive deep down to the coral reef in order to get a better look. There was black coral, brown, white, pink. Lots of little striped fish, which were yellow, green, blue and black. The water was clear near the beach and looked turquoise further out into the sea.
     I like swimming very much because it is fun to me. Swimming in the Caribbean waters is something I really miss, but I still swim every chance I get in pools and the river, but not in the ocean – it’s too cold here.
     Now I ride my bicycle every day to get my exercise. I’ll tell you more later about riding.
