Ever since seventh grade summer we have invented our own tradition of going to the beach together every summer. We decided to do this because we had a lot of fun on our very first trip. When we go to the beach we always play putt putt because it was our favorite thing to do as a group.
Analyze and Interpret
This coming summer we are trying to decide weather we want to go to Myrtle Beach again or go to Panama Beach. We also are trying to decide what time is best to go eat so we wont get into the crowds. We have also decided we are going to go in August instead of June or July. The reason we are doing this is because it's cheaper and there's less people on the Beach and at the restaurants.
Take a Stand
A problem I see at the beach is all the shark attacks. i think there needs to be a rule on how far you can go out in the ocean when all those shark attacks happened. I also think there needs to be better security in Ocean Lakes to keep the people safe. I thin that they need to have people cleaning on the beaches so theirs not so much trash on the beach also. Besides these things i had a ton of fun at the beach and i cant wait for the next trip!
