I had a great time at the beach yesturday. I went there with my mum, my dad , and my little brother .When we first reached we tried to catch crabs. I saw a few crabs but they all ran away. I caught two crabs and a sea snail. My little brother Ryan did not caught anything. My father saw something floating in the water he first thought it was a piece of newspaper curled into a ball.so he scooped it up when he look into the net it was a jellyfish. I showed it to my mum she snap a few picture of it into her phone. Then we enjoyed the sun sat. When it was dark, we let the creatures we caught back to the sea. Ryan did not wanted to let it go . I hope when we come back we will get some intersting catch.

Kuantan Holiday

I like kuantan because of the beautiful scenario. I go to the seaside every morning to catch small crabs with my dad, mom and my brother ryan.

There are plenty of small little crabs wondering on the sand. The crabs will try to escape whenever we walk towards them. We catch a whole bucket of crabs within 2 hours.

When the sun rises and it gets hotter, we quickly go to the hotel to shower followed by breakfast.
