A Day At The Beach

One Sunday, early in the morning, I got up at 6 o’clock. I was looking outside the balcony. It was a pleasant day. I was feeling very joyful. After thinking a lot, I got an idea of going to the beach. I asked my mother if we could go to the beach and she agreed.

So at once we left for the beach. We even took our friends along with us. When I reached the beach a breeze passed by. Then we started finding a place where we could sit. After sometime we found a very nice place. The sand was dry and porous. I had got a beach set along with me. So we decided to have a sand castle competition.

But first we made the sand wet by pouring water on the sand. We had lots of fun making castles. My castle was looking like a fort. Then we saw a flock of beautiful White Sea gulls. We saw many people taking a walk with their dogs. The dogs were of many breeds like the German Shepherds, Boxers and Golden Spaniels. After a while the sun started to come up. The waves were shining as bright as white pearls. I wanted to go in the water. She agreed but warned us not to go too far. We had lots of fun splashing water on each other. Then the waves started becoming higher and higher, so we had to come out of the water. We all were completely wet. I had got a ball with me. So we decided to play football till our clothes become dry. After a while we were feeling very hungry. So we ate the cheese sandwiches that my mother made at home before we left. Then we went to have coconut water. It was sweet and delicious. After a while the sun was completely up and it became very hot. So we went home with sweet memories. This was one of the best day in my life and I will never forget this day.
