The Beach

Six am, and the sun peaked out from behind the rocks. Eager tourists were flocking in like seagulls. It was the weekend, the time where the coast was blaring with sounds.

    Even though the kids had nothing in their life, on their first visit to the beach, they were so happy and filled with wonder. I remember my first day at the beach, and it was amazing. However, I wasn’t really excited about going, and I knew in the back of my head that i'll be coming here a lot more often, so I took it for granted.
