A Day at the Beach

It was a sunny Saturday morning. John and his family decided to spend the day at the beach. They packed a picnic, brought sunscreen, and put on their swimsuits. John’s little sister, Emily, was very excited because it was her first time visiting the beach.

When they arrived, they could hear the waves crashing against the shore. The sound of seagulls filled the air, and the sand was warm under their feet. John and Emily ran straight into the water and started playing in the waves. Their parents set up an umbrella and enjoyed the view while having some snacks.

In the afternoon, the weather became a little hot, so they decided to go for a swim. After swimming, they built a big sandcastle together. It was a perfect day, and they all had lots of fun.
