The thistle is the national emblem of Scotland. In very ancient times the Norsemen once landed somewhere; on the east coast of Scotland, with the intention of plundering and settling in the country. As they arrived late In the day, weary and tired after a long march, they pitched their camp and rested, not expecting the enemy before the next day. The Norsemen were near. Intending to take the Scots by surprise and slaughter them in their sleep. To this end, they took off their shoes so as to make the least noise possible. But one of the Norsemen stepped on a thistle. The sudden and sharp pain he felt caused him to shriek. The alarm was given in the Scots' camp. The Norsemen were put to flight and then Scots took it as their national.
Last summer, we were sailing off the coast of New Zealand when we saw a group of dolphins. They were jumping in the water. We stopped and i dived into th water to take some photos of the dolphins. I was taking photos when one of the dolphins swam towards me and pushed me towards the boat. The other dolphins were watching us all the time. They did not play anymore. I was looking around and saw a huge shark. I got out of the water very quickly. When I got on the boat, the dolphins disappeared at once. They saved my life.
