I was sitting in the car with my sunscreen all over me making me feel slimy. I was sitting in the back of my grandma’s car. The sun was shining right on my leg making it itch and throb very uncomfortably. I took my sweatshirt and covered my legs with it. We were driving to a Bealls store to pick up a long sleeve swim shirt for me. While we were there, I got an orange Under Armour sweatshirt. I didn't like the fact that there were no pockets on the front of it. Then we got in the car and drove some more. We finally pulled up to the parking lot and we drove around for 20 min looking for a space. The space we got was awesome. It was in front and very close to the walkway. I got out of the car, grabbed my bag, and started walking. The sand felt like an entire beach of memory foam on my feet as I walked down to the water. I put my stuff down, got my boogie board, surfed the waves. The cool sea mist felt refreshing on my face as I sliced through the water. Then I dug a hole in the sand thinking I was going to relax in the sand and used the boogie board as an “umbrella.” I relaxed and let the wind flow through my hair. My sister was sitting under the beach umbrella and digging her own hole. She made a seat then a foot rest that went a foot underground. My mom and grandma were sitting next to each other drinking their coffee. They were definitely having fun at the big, beautiful beach. Or so I think. We all sat and chilled for about an hour. Then we left to go to my sister's birthday dinner. We went to Cedar Reef and had a nice fish dinner. The appetizer was shrimp with horseradish dip. My entree was “Big Shrimpin.” It had big shrimp in a basket. Then we went home.
