In The Sunny Day
Last weekend, my family and I went to Rongkang beach near our grandparent‟s house.
The day was sunny and hot. The view of the beach was beautiful. There were many people at
the beach. Most of them were teenagers.
We were having fun. We built a sandcastle. We had to rebuild twice before it really stood
up. The first attempt failed because we built it to close to the water. And the second attempt,
the successful one, was just right. The spot we choose was not too close to the water and the
mixture was good.
Our parents loved our work. Some people who passed our castle loved it, too. They even
took pictures near our castle.
We were so proud of our work that day.
