My Holiday
Mum and Dad said we were going on holiday to Devon. We packed lots of games to play in the car because we knew it would take a long time to get there.
We stayed in a cottage so close to the beach that we could hear the sound of the waves crashing on the rocky shore.
On the first morning James and I ran outside with our buckets and spades to build a sandcastle but we couldn’t see any sand.
Dad laughed and told us to be patient. As the tide started to go out we began to explore the rock pools. They were full of tiny fish and crabs.
“I think you might need these,” said Dad as he passed us some fishing nets.
James caught ten crabs but I only caught seven. At the end of the morning, we returned them to the pool and went to eat our picnic.
After lunch we paddled in the sea, built a sandcastle and played cricket with some of the other children on the beach.
“This has been the best holiday of my life,” said James.
“And it’s still only the first day!” said Mum.
