When I was a child I would love to hear my parents tell me that we were going on a trip. I was so excited because I knew that we would be going to a place that I had never seen before. My most cherished memories is when we went to the beach. When I heard my parents talking about going to the beach I was so excited. My family and I spent a lot of time at the beach. We planned a lot of activities to keep us amused. We used to go to the beach every morning, and sometimes we went in the afternoons too. We swam in the water, caught fish, and crabs. If we felt tired, we just lie down on the beach and close our eyes. The sand was very soft and the sky was very clear. My brother and I played a lot of board games such as jenga, uno and monopoly.The roar of the pounding ultramarine blue water, with the emerald green forests as a backdrop, stole my heart. I was hooked for life!
