Water Babies

A detailed Summary of Water Babies

One of my fondest memories as a child is going to the beach; the summers were the best. The

beach was so exciting, lots of things to play with, the clean soft sand and blue water for as far

Every weekend we would pack up my Mom's VW Bug with oversized colorful beach towels,

bags full of buckets, shovels, sifters, rafts and beach balls. There was that old green Coleman cooler, the

metal kind, which had been drug to the beach so many times that it looked like we had purchased it twenty

years earlier, stuffed full of kool-aid and the fattest peanut butter and jelly sandwiches you ever saw. Of

We would get there at 9:00 to beat all of the others who would arrive at 10:00, we sometimes

thought that it was a race to get the best spot, and you had to be there early to get it. When you stepped out

of the car, the first thing to hit you was the smell of the beach; fishy sea smell mixed with the scent of

sunscreen. A mix of five different radio stations pla

couldn't even tell there was a child under all of that beach gear, but we didn't care, we just couldn't wait

was great, drinking Kool aid out of those little Dixie cups, the kind with the corny little jokes written on

Mom would have to coax us out of the water with those fat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Lunchtime

When lunch was finished, it would be time to build the biggest, best sandcastle on the beach. We

ying at the same time filled the air, the sound of

treasures back to the blanket and sit back to admire the handiwork of the biggest and best sandcastle on
