Over the summer I went to the lake on Mercer Island with our friends who live there. When we got to the lake we set up the picnic table for dinner. Then we got our swimsuits on so that we could go to the raft in the middle of the lake.

The water was freezing but we went into the cold gray water anyway. You could jump off the raft that was covered in seaweed and go to the bottom. It was only four feet deep so it wasn’t too far down. At the bottom there was slimy seaweed covering the little tiny clams. You could sometimes open them to “sea” if there was anything inside if not we would throw the clam as far out into the lake as possible!

When it got dark and quite cold we all ate dinner together. Then all of the kids on the swirly green playground. After that everyone said their goodbyes and one of our friends took us to our hotel.
