I like turtles

This is a turtle in Rikugien where I went last Sunday.
I like turtles very much, because they are so cute.
It swam and looked so comfortable.
Look at its short arms and legs, it looks so cute doesn't it?

I would like to have a turtle in my house,
but my husband doesn't allow it.
Actually, we already have two cats and we can't afford to have any more pets.
I know that.

So I have enjoyed looking at turtles in parks, pet shops, sea, and so on.
The turtle which made the strongest impression on me was a marine turtle in Hawaii.
(The best turtle I ever saw was a marine turtle in Hawaii.)
I had never seen such a big turtle before.
I touched its shell, it was so hard.

Someday I hope to see a marine turtle again, and swim together.
