Diego walked out on to the shore line with a big smile on his face. The sun was shining brightly and the waves were crashing against the beach. Today was the day that Diego could let him self go and not give a care in the world. He took a spot on the beach and set his things down. The crashing waves made a wonderfully soothing noise. It was constant and calming to Diego. But that was not enough to keep his calm. He could not wait to get into the water. He took off his small cloak and threw it into the air. He began running toward the water, waiving his arms into the air.

Diego jumped up into the air and landed in the water with a loud splash. The waves were not strong but kept him moving back and forth. Diego was splashing and laughing as he played in the water. He looked up into the sky and noticed a few large birds flying low over him. He put his hands under the water and cupped them together. He waited until the birds were directly over him , and then he lifted. The water flew up and hit the bottom side of the birds. He laughed with exalting joy and swam out to sea.
