Memories:

Skimming rocks at the beach

My memories bring me back to the beach. There was a lot of people. Some people swimming some people playing volleyball. I could hear the seagulls singing and the ocean smashing against the sand. Woosh! Woosh! I got bored so I started skimming rocks. 

The rocks felt smooth like they had been flattened. I smelt the salty ocean and the hot dogs. They made my mouth water and I asked my mum if I could get one. I was so desperate and luckily she said yes. I took a bite and it was so nice it felt like there was a party in my brain.
