Beach, here we come! Yup, that’s right; we went to the beach today. We went to the Gulf of Mexico at St. Petersburg. There aren’t many waves in the Gulf. We never just play in the ocean. We like to dig a “pool” in the sand. We thought that since we were so close to the water that we would reach water soon. Well, I had to dig about two feet until I reached water! When I found that out, I decided to go down a small slope. Once I dug about 4-5 inches, I reached water. There is not much of a tide. It is also hard to dig because there are shells in the sand. When I started digging my second “pool”, the tide started coming in so Sis said to dig a trench for the water to go into and make a small wall. The wall wasn’t tall because the water wasn’t high, but the wall was wide by about a half a foot! Sis kept on digging to get more sand, and she was digging the pool to make it bigger. We always love to fight the tide, but we always lose. By the time that the tide came in, we had to go. We went to the Pier after the beach. They have an art gallery, restaurants, shops, and a candy area. There were five floors. Also, there was an aquarium on the second floor, but we didn’t go in. On the fifth floor was a place to eat, so that is where we ate. Then I got a T-shirt and we left. I was out in the sun the whole time and got some sun tan on my arms and shoulders, but not a tan on my legs.
