"Oh my goodness, I can't believe were going to the beach!" I cried out. My mom turned to my dad and smiled. I was finally going to the beach for the first time! My dad looked at me trough the rearview mirror and smiled, "you better believe it cause it's true, princess." he said. I just grinned and started jumping up and down in my seat. I turned to look at my mom. Her eyes were full of tears and they looked like tears of happiness.

We're finally here! I'm so happy. We first got a hotel room that was right in front of the beach, and our room was the penthouse! This was all new to me. The penthouse was so big and beautiful. It's so elaborate with many different colors. There was even a porch that was facing the ocean. It was just so gorgeous. "What do you think sweetie?" My mom asked. I turned to both of my parents with big eyes and said, "it's just... Perfect mommy!" I ran and hugged them both. "Can we go to the beach now!" I said pulling back. They smiled back at me and my mom moved her eyes to dad without my dad knowing. It was a signal, it meant that I have to ask my dad. I turned to my daddy and got on my knees like I was praying, "p-p-p-please, daddy can we go?" I said purposely stammering. I even gave him my puppy eyes that made him smile. He sighed and said, "well.... How are you going to swim when you don't even have your swim suit on." I jumped up and squealed and I started running to my room.

We're finally here at the beach! We were all in the water. We stayed close to the shore. We were splashing each other and my dad would throw me up really high and let me fall into the deep waters and he would instantly pick me up. "Was that fun?" He asked. I looked at him grinning and nodded. After a while we started to go back to shore, it was time to hit the big waves. I had to put on floaties. I was scared but my excitement took over.
We were now far from shore. The waves were getting bigger. The small ones felt like a rollercoaster going over a long, small hill. It kinda felt like I was flying. Then we got to the big waves! My dad was the one holding me and my mom was beside us. The wave was building up above us, "get ready sweetie!" My mom said. The waves crashed on us. It felt amazing, the water was going through my hair roughly and our bodies would go backwards. My dad tightened his grip so I wouldn't leave his side. Now the water was getting weaker. We started swimming up. We got above water and I was gasping. My mom started swimming back to us, my dad's black curly hair now looks straight with few curls.

When we got back the day was about to end. We had a picnic on the beach. The sight was so gorgeous! Half of the Sun was above the water and the color was a light pink and orange. The sunlight would reflect off the calm waves. It was such a beautiful sight."Min, you haven't eaten a thing, what's wrong?" My mom asked. I quickly looked at her with big eyes. "Oh, nothing! It's just that the sunset looks sooo beautiful," I said looking back at the sun. My dad cleared his throat and said, "your right, it is a beautiful sight. It's rare to see such a site, so when you do take a good look and remember it-" my mom cut him off, "and feel lucky for yourself, my dear to have seen a rare beauty of nature. Just like I've seen a rare beauty myself," she said. "Exactly," said my father. I looked at my dad and asked him, "what rare beauty have you seen, daddy?" He smiled at me and said, "you and your beautiful mom... Our family." I looked at my mom and asked, "what about you, mommy?" She smiled with tears in her eyes and said, "the rarest beauty that I've seen is... You."
