My dad used to take me to the ocean frequently. We would go to Florida about four times a year and we would stay there for many days. We would go to the beach almost everyday that we were there. My grandma’s house is right near the ocean and we always used to go there and play.

We would go with our cousins and stay there for hours. We would spot so many different animals such as: crabs, baby sharks, sea turtles, and more. It was definitely a big highlight of our trips to Florida.

I remember one time, we were at the beach for so long that we all got sun burns. It was so worth it though and so much fun making so many amazing memories that I will never forget. Swimming past all of the creatures in the ocean, burying my feet in the sand and watching the waves pull the sand away slowly. Sitting under the umbrella and watching the waves go by. These were all great feelings that I hope I will never forget. It all means so much to me.
