Aki's family was going on a road trip to the beach. Aki was very excited because she loved the beach.
They packed their bags and got in the car. Aki's mom was driving, and her dad was sitting in the passenger seat. Aki and her little brother were sitting in the back. As they drove, Aki looked out the window and saw many trees and mountains. She asked her dad if they could stop and take a picture. They stopped at a rest area and took a picture. Aki's mom bought some snacks, and they continued driving.
After a few hours, they arrived at the beach. Aki and her brother ran to the water and played in the waves. They built sandcastles and collected seashells. Aki's mom and dad relaxed on the beach and read books. They had a picnic lunch and enjoyed the beautiful view.
In the evening, they had dinner at a restaurant and drove home. Aki was tired but happy.
| Aki: | Hi, little brother. Did you have fun at the beach today? |
| Brother: | Yes, Aki. It was so much fun! I loved playing in the waves. |
| Aki: | Me too! And did you see all the seashells we collected? |
| Brother: | Yeah, we got so many, maybe a hundred! |
| Aki: | Yeah, I'm going to make a necklace with mine. |
| Brother: | Good idea! I hope we can go to the beach again soon! |
