OUR VACATION
Every year my family and I go to California. We like going to the beach.
My favorite beach is called Santa Monica. It is so long, with soft sand
and palm trees. It is very beautiful and hot. I like surfing and watching the
sailboats passing by. Sometimes there are dolphins and lots of fish in the
water! Every morning we go looking for shells in the sand. I found fifteen big
shells last year. I bring them home to share some with my cousins. This year
I want to learn how to dive. It seems difficult, but so much fun! My brother is
a good diver. He says that he can help me. I hope I can do it!
