Wednesday

Wednesday in the afternoon we waited for my dad to finish work, while we were at home we made some sandwiches and some food to take to the beach for a picnic.  When it was 2.30pm we came to dads work picked him up and went straight to the beach, it was a little windy but the sun was out.  We parked the car then went and found a dry spot to have lunch, after eating we went for a walk and play along the beach it was fun.
