At the beach
Yesterday in the morning, the children went to the beach with their mother. The beach
was quiet. There were no people on the beach. The children only heard the sounds of birds, sa
palm trees and the ocean. They saw many small shells on the beach. After the walk, the children
were hungry. Their mother gave apples, juice and sandwiches for lunch. After the breakfast, they
played and jumped in the waves.
