We spread out our towels and started building a sandcastle. My little sister was in charge of making the moat, while my mom helped with the towers. My dad was the mastermind behind the design, and he even carved a small boat out of the sand to add some fun.
We spent the afternoon playing beach volleyball, building sandcastles, and splashing in the waves. I learned how to surf for the first time, and it was an exhilarating experience. By the time the sun started to set, we were tired but happy.
