Our Day In Brighton

I have never been to Brighton before, I was eight, never been on a sea shore. Mum and Dad were taking us all on a summer's treat, We could make sand castles, swim,eat ice cream in the summers heat. Dad had been awarded one hundred pounds for being clever, Also for supporting his company with his best endeavor. Dad decided that fifty pounds would be spent on a day out, The rest to improve Mums kitchen, needed it , no doubt. My sister Jill and I prayed for the weather to be kind, It was great to see the sunshine when we pulled up the bedroom blind. We caught the early train to Brighton Station. Mum had brought a pic-nic which exceeded our expection. At the station we marched down to the sea front, We saw the sea and beach and then find a space we had to hunt. Dad hired a sunshade to shelter us from the sun. Dad, Jill and I ran into the sea, splashed about, what fun. Dad said" When we have had our lunch and dried out, We will build a sand castle strong and stout. Then we cool down and swim in the sea again. Mum reminded dad we had to catch the seven o' clock train. Mum gave us funny food that we had never had before. She said it could be a long time you get anymore. That was the first time I had visited Brighton and enjoyed the day out. We came four times more, so we know what seasides are all about.
