Cold Sea Water

Last month, I went to the sea together with my older brother.
We wanted to swim, but the sea water was very cold.
We did not swim in the sea.
The two of us put only our feet into the water.
And then, we took a short walk near the sea.
My older brother said, “Cold water is also good, isn’t it.”
