You keep swimming without stopping and look back occasionally, and at one point you see another shark but it takes no notice of you because it is more interested in the blood which is coming from the other shark.

A few minutes later you walk up onto the beach a few hundred yards away from the harbour. You would certainly get a few strange looks walking back to your room at this late hour with your clothes wet through, but fortunately you make it back unseen and after taking off your wet things collapse onto the bed in exhaustion.

You have had a long night and don't wake until almost dinnertime and the sun is streaming in through the window.
