The Fun Afternoon

Visiting Blogger Enila writes:  Yesterday we went to the beach at low tide.  (The picture you see is high tide.)  We swam, jumped in the waves. There were a bunch of tiny fish -- a centimeter long -- following us around in the warm water.  We didn't even get sunburned because the weather was perfect. We tried to convince my grandfather to come in to the water, but he pretended he didn't hear us.  Maybe he doesn't know how to swim.
After that, we took a shower and played "Mother, may I?"  It was so, so much fun.  I kept forgetting to ask, "Mother, may I?" and had to go back to the beginning. When we were halfway to the "mother", there was a watermelon stop.  You could take a piece of watermelon, and that meant that you were close to the "mother", unless, of course, you had to go back!

 We played on the deck, while we looked at the ocean.That was such a fun afternoon.

  2. I tried to get the fishies away from me, but I couldn't. The beach was fun. We were going to make a sand castle, but we couldn't because it was too late because the tide was coming up to the rocks and covering all the sand.
