Last wekend, my family went to the beach. While we were there, I played in the warm sand with my sister. We built the biggest sandcastle you have ever seen. It was five stories tall and so wide that I couldn't reach the other side without getting up to walk around. We added seashells and sticks for decoration. My mom even made a flag out of a napkin. We had so much fun at the beach. I hope we go again soon.
