I awake at exactly 7:15  every morning. I eat my breakfast of seaweed and mussles. Then I tidy up the house and clean my tail so that it's scales shimmer. Once I'm finished with my morning chores, I leave my underwater cave. Normally I would head to the bay to care for the young turtles, but all the babies have left for the sea. When I'm not caring for turtles or gathering ingredients for supper I'm sunbathing on the rocks. I happen to know the best place to sunbathe. Once I leave my cave I swim left until I come to the the coral reef near the large rock. Then I head to the bluffs. Eventually I see pebbles instead of sand, which means I'm close. The waves are so strong in this area that I just let them push me to shore. After I'm on land I go up to the rocks and lay on my favorite one. This place is so nice because there aren't any noisy seals and the sun hits the rocks every morning. The only problem is that it is close to the two-leg village, but the two-legs never come to the rocks. Probably because of the dangerous waves. I have never been spotted by a two-leg before, but I have seen one. Me and the dolphins used to watch them from the bay, but that was when we were young and foolish.
