Last summer we travelled to Scotland to go to the Edinburgh
festival. I was really excited about the festival, but I wanted to visit
Loch Ness and see Nessie, the famous monster, too. According to
legend, it lived in this lake.
We started our journey to Loch Ness very early in the morning. We
SOon arrived at the lake. The sun was shining but it was a little
misty. I wanted to take some photographs so | walked to the edge
of the lake. Suddenly, a long neck appeared from out of the water.
It was moving up and down and from side to side. *Was it the
Loch Ness monster?" | wondered.
| stepped back in horror, dropped my camera and
shouted for help. My family tried to calm me down.
A few seconds later my dad started laughing. lt's not
Nessie, John. It's a log moving up and down on the
water. Look! He was right. | started laughing at my
mistake.

D
We had a great picnic by the lake and we all enjoyed
Mum's sandwiches. It's a pity Nessie wasn't there to have
one!
