I live my life in the deep blue sea, and my favorite thing to do is travel. There was one particular trip that was frightening and unexpected. I was traveling with my pod to the Artic ocean and was somehow taken off course. I swam and swam looking for my family and friends, but after hours of swimming I found myself in shallow water. Humans were all around me in boats and on the shore. There was a huge bridge above me, lots of noise and too much chaos. I couldn't find my way out. I was afraid, I was tierd, I was hungry and I had no idea what to do next. Finally, 3 huge ships surrounded me and lead me to the ocean. I was so greatful, but I was also alone. I eventually found a pod of Orca's that accepted me into thier pod. When I told them the story, they quickly told me that I swam toward and was under the infamous Golden Gate Bridge. There have been a couple of incedents where whales have been blinded by the light that the beautiful bridge gives off and have been thorwn off course. It's a dangerous and exciting lesson that I will be sure not to Experience ever again!!!
