Well done Sasha!
Charlotte (Rabbit) wrote a 'letter in a bottle':
Here on this island I keep doing lots of things. Like catching fish and drinking coconut juice it has been so much fun! And I don't want to leave it. It feels like my home already!
The smooth sand and hard rocks make me feel relaxed.
When I go to sleep it normally rains and the waves really go wild it's really noisy but I don't mind. I normally dream of the sea going to and fro and the sun setting.
It is so much fun and I don't even want to go home!!!
She has also been writing messages every day from her island.
Well done Charlotte!
