1.) Last weekend, my friends and I decided to go on a spontaneous road trip to the beach. We packed our bags, filled the car with snacks, and set off early in the morning. The weather was perfect, and we couldn't wait to spend a day by the ocean.

As we arrived at the beach, the sun was shining brightly, and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore was music to our ears. We laid out our beach towels, applied sunscreen, and went for a refreshing swim. The water was cool and inviting, and we spent hours playing in the waves and building sandcastles.

For lunch, we enjoyed a picnic we had brought with us, complete with sandwiches, fruit, and chips. After eating, we decided to take a long walk along the shoreline, collecting seashells and taking photos of the beautiful scenery. The day seemed to pass by in the blink of an eye.

As the sun began to set, we gathered around a bonfire on the beach and roasted marshmallows for s'mores. It was a perfect way to end the day, with the orange and pink hues of the sunset painting the sky.

2.)  Last summer, I went on a beach vacation with my family. We spent a week at a beautiful seaside resort. We swam in the crystal-clear water, built sandcastles, and enjoyed the sun. In the evenings, we would watch the sunset over the horizon. We also tried some delicious seafood at the local restaurants. It was a relaxing and memorable trip.
