  • A Trip to the Beach

    Sarah loves to travel. Last summer, she went on a trip to the beach. She packed her suitcase with clothes, sunscreen, and her favorite book. Sarah was excited to see the ocean for the first time.

    She rode in a car with her family for many hours. When they arrived, Sarah felt the warm sand under her feet. She ran toward the water and splashed in the waves. The ocean was big and blue. Sarah built sandcastles and collected seashells.

    Sarah's family had a picnic on the beach. They ate sandwiches and fruit. They played games and flew a kite. Sarah laughed and smiled a lot.

    In the afternoon, Sarah watched the sunset. The sky turned orange and pink. She took many pictures with her camera. She felt happy and peaceful.

    When it was time to go home, Sarah was sad to leave the beach. She hugged her family and waved goodbye to the ocean. She promised herself she would come back again.
