Pero me pas\u00f3 algo el fin de semana.<br \/>\nDouglas: \u00bfQu\u00e9 te pas\u00f3?<br \/>\nAitana: Casi me muero.<br \/>\nDouglas: \u00a1\u00bfQu\u00e9?! \u00bfD\u00f3nde? \u00bfC\u00f3mo?<br \/>\nAitana: Mar adentro en el barco de mi familia, por la costa de Bilbao.<br \/>\nDouglas: \u00bfEstabas sola? \u00bfEres buena marinera?<br \/>\nAitana: Estaba con mi hermano, su amigo y mi amiga Elena. Todos somos marineros bastante experimentados.<br \/>\nDouglas: Entonces, \u00bfqu\u00e9 pas\u00f3?<br \/>\nAitana: Quedamos atrapados en una fuerte tormenta. El barco se volc\u00f3 por el lado de babor y el m\u00e1stil se sumergi\u00f3 completamente en el agua.<br \/>\nDouglas: \u00a1Dios m\u00edo! Eso suena aterrador.<br \/>\nAitana: Hab\u00eda enormes olas por todos lados y est\u00e1bamos m\u00e1s o menos colgados de la cubierta.

El viento soplaba muy fuerte. Y nos dirig\u00edamos hacia las rocas.<br \/>\nDouglas: \u00bfTu barco no tiene motor?<br \/>\nAitana: No, es un velero. Ten\u00edamos un bote de repuesto, pero habr\u00eda sido peor si nos hubi\u00e9ramos montado en el bote.<br \/>\nDouglas: Bueno, est\u00e1s aqu\u00ed para contarlo. Entonces, \u00bfc\u00f3mo regresaste a la orilla?<br \/>\nAitana: Finalmente logramos levantar el m\u00e1stil y la vela y enderezar el casco. No s\u00e9 c\u00f3mo, pero lo hicimos. Regresamos al puerto deportivo despu\u00e9s de unas cuatro horas de lucha.<br \/>\nDouglas: Estoy tan contento de que est\u00e9s bien Aitana.
