What a day! (stories)

When I was eight years old, my family and I were on holiday in Montenegro. The weather was nice and the sun was shining all the time. We stayed in a beautiful hotel for ten days. Every day we went to the beach. We were swimming a lot, going scuba diving, sunbathing and playing beach volleyball. 
One day, my parents met some local people. They invited us to go night fishing. It was common for them to catch fish at night. We were pleased, so we accepted.
That night, at eleven o'clock, the boat was waiting for us to go aboard, and we started our night adventure. It was very dark. We could hardly see anything. There wasn't any light.
The fishermen were telling stories about their adventures. Suddenly, we felt a strange hit on the back of the boat. One fisherman took out a stick for sharks and tried to catch the fish. It was scary because they shouted, 'A shark, a shark!' But, there weren't any.
It was a nice experience after all. We felt happy and satisfied.
This adventure was very exciting and I will never forget it.
