THE BEACH TRIP

 I had a fun day today. I went to the beach with my family. It was my first time I had gone to the beach in North Carolina.

 We woke up early  and drove for two hours until we reached the beach. There was a lot of traffic. We finally found a parking spot and walked to the sand. It was pretty outside and the beach was very crowded. There were a lot of kids playing. My dad set up a big umbrella. I laid my towel out on the sand. My mom helped me put on sunscreen. I didn't want to get sunburned. I walked down the water and stuck my toes in. The water was warm. It felt good. I walked back to my family and told my brother to come swimming with me.

"I don't want to," he said

"Why not?" I asked.

"I'm afraid of sharks," he said.

I smiled when I heard my brother. Then I asked him:

"Why do you think there are sharks here?"

"My friend told he was here and he saw some sharks here," he said.

"Oh my goodness. It can be just a joke. Don't be afraid, let's go," I said.

Then we went swimming, played ball on the sand and we enjoyed so much. After my family and I went to a restaurant to have lunch. I loved this day with my family.

                                                    SUMMER  CAMP

 Today was my first day at asummer camp! I had a lot of fun. I had to wake up very early. My dad dropped me off at the park and i met my counselor. Her name was Jamie. There were nine other people in my group.

 The first thing that we did was go on a nature hike. The hike was long. We walked through the entire park. I saw two squirrels and a rabbit. I was afraid that I was going to see a snake. It was Hot and I got a lot of bug bites.

 After the hike, we had arts and crafts. I made a bookmark to take home with me. I colored it blue and used a lot of glitter.

 After arts and crafts, we played my favorite game!

 On the second day , we played soccer. It was so funny. The most of the girls didn't know how to play, but I thought we enjoyed very much.

 In the end of the day we swam at the lake and at night everybody was so tired.

 During all the summer camp we did many different things. I met many friends.

 Summer camp in my opinion was the best thing that happened on my vacation, I loved it.
