Once I was on holiday in Portugal with my family. I was 16 and my
brother and sister were both 4. This was a few years ago and so a few
years after Madeleine McCann had been abducted. We were on a beach on
the South Coast, near where she had been taken. Suddenly we heard a man
shouting at the top of his voice looking for his daughter. He was
running around the beach with his wife, searching desperately. My dad
and I, and a few other people decided to help him look. We got to the
end of the beach and saw a cave, still shouting her name. Our search
party entered the cave and saw her there sitting down. I heard the dad
ask her what she was doing (she looked about 5 or 6) and she said, in
these exact words: "The man was taking me to get an ice cream." At the
opposite side, there was a small hollow, just big enough for a man to
crouch and fit through, leading back towards the town. To think what
could have happened if we were several minutes later is horrifying, and
we didn't let my brother or sister out of our sight for the rest of the
holiday.
