A day in Lake Lanier

I went to Lake Lanier this past Saturday and I had a great time. My friend owns a boat and he invited me to spend the day at the lake. At the beginning I wasn’t so sure about it, since I was afraid of the water. But after he insisted and assured me that everything was going to be fine I accepted the invitation. We got there Saturday around noon; the boat was parked at the marina ready to sail out. The sun was wonderful; I laid in the boat to try to catch some tan which in fact I did. Maybe too much!! After a few hours it got so hot that I had to go in the water to cool off. To my surprise the water was warm and it was nice to be able to swim. After the first dip in the water I lost all of my fears and I was comfortable. I spend the rest of the day swimming around the lake until the sun had set and it was time to go back to the marina. On our way back to marina we could see the fireworks from Lake Lanier Island. We stopped the boat so that we could enjoy the whole show and it was beautiful. The only problem I had on the trip was that I got sunburn so I was in a little bit of pain the next day. But overall the trip was so nice that I will love to do it again, so much for my fear of the water!!!
