Sita and Ritu were very excited. This year, their family was going on holiday to the seaside. The girls spent many hours on the beach. It was hot, so they walked towards the shelter of some nearby rocks. There, they found several shallow caves. Then they came to a cave that was larger and deeper than the others. It was too dark to see much, so they decided to come back with torches the next day. But when they made their way outside, they got a shock. While they had been exploring the cave, the tide had risen! They would be trapped here for hours! Sita had a small mirror in her pocket. She used it to reflect sunlight towards the shore, hoping that someone would see it. A while later, a lifeguard saw the flashes of light and immediately brought out a motorboat to rescue them. The girls promised to be careful about the turning tides.
