Ang Tore sa Pagitan ng Dalawang Dagat
Polly climbs the one hundred and forty-six wooden steps of Piran's bell tower, a small copy of the one in Venice, and sees the town lying between a sea of water and a sea of salt.

Bumalik si Polly sa bayan. Sa burol ay may mataas na kampanaryo sa tabi ng simbahan. Kopya ito ng tanyag na tore sa Venecia. Itinayo ito mahigit apat na raang taon na ang nakararaan.
Sa loob ay may sandaan at apatnapu't anim na baitang na kahoy. Nilukso ni Polly ang bawat baitang. Sa itaas ay nakasabit ang malalaking kampana. Amoy asin ang hangin.
Nasa ilalim niya ang bayan. Bumababa hanggang sa dagat ang mga kahel na bubong. Kumikinang ang puting plaza na parang maliit na buwan. Sa isang panig ay asul na dagat lamang.
Sa kabilang panig, sa malayo, kumikinang na puti ang mga asinan. Tubig sa isang panig, asin sa kabila. Tama ang kanaway. Asin ang nagtayo ng bayang ito.
That's the story.
