Snorkeli Na Matumbawe
Swahili
Jana tulikwenda ufukoni kutembelea matumbawe. Maji yalikuwa safi na samaki wengi wenye rangi nzuri. Rafiki yangu alikuwa na snorkeli yake, lakini mimi hatukuwa nayo. "Uvaee snorkeli yangu!" aliniambia. "Lazima uone samaki hapa!" Nilijaribu kuvaa, lakini snorkeli yangu haikuwa kamili. "Nirekebishe kwa wewe," alisema. Kabla ya kuogelea, tulichunguza vifaa vyetu. "Je, umewahi kupiga mbizi hapa?" niliuliza. "Ndio, nimeogelea karibu na matumbawe uliopita," alijibu. Leo hatutaogelea tena kwa sababu msimu wa maji hauna rangi nzuri. Kesho tutarudi ufukoni. "Utaogelea na mimi?" aliniuliza. "Ndio, nitakuwa tayari!"
Safari Baharini
Swahili
Kulikuwa siku ya joto baharini. Ali na rafiki yake walitaka kupiga picha za matumbawe. Ali alikuwa dhaifu kwa sababu hakujifunza vizuri kuogelea. "Umewahi kuvaa flipaa?" rafiki yake aliuliza. "Hauhitaji kuogopa, lakini tunapaswa kulinda uhai wetu," akasema. Waliepuka sharki karibu na matumbawe. "Hatujamwona sharki bado," Ali alisema kwa hofu. Rafiki yake alimwona kasa ndogo na kupiga picha yake. "Matumbawe yanaweza kuvunjika ukiyagusa," alimwonya. Maji yalikuwa safi, lakini hazikuwa ya joto sana. "Kama tutaangalia vizuri, tutaona vitu vingi vya kuvutia," rafiki yake aliahidi. Ali amejifunza kuwa baharini kuna hatari, lakini pia ni nzuri.
Bahati ya maji safi
Swahili
Jana asubuhi, maji yalikuwa baridi sana, lakini leo yana joto kutosha. Mimi na rafiki yangu Wali tulikwenda kwenye pwani. Maji yalikuwa ya kuelea vizuri, kwa hivyo tuliamua kupiga mbizi. Tuliona samaki wengi wa rangi nan, na vya kuvutia chini ya maji. Wali alisema, "Tuna bahati kwa sababu maji hayakuwa machafu." Tulicheza juu ya mawimbi kwa muda mrefu. Baadaye, tulikula chakula kizuri pwani. Kama maji yatakuwa safi kesho, tutarudi tena. Lakini kama yatakuwa baridi, hatutaweza kuingia. Wali ataangalia hali ya hewa asubuhi.
