Random Vacation Ideas #10

I love to go to the beach. A trip to the beach takes approximately two hours from my house. I went to the beach by riding a motorcycle to the coast through fields, forests and rivers. The quiet atmosphere and fresh air was something that I love on the beach. To enjoy the fresh air and quiet atmosphere, sometimes I swim or just sit on the beach and enjoying the beautiful scenery. From the shore I could see fishing boats, or coastal animals. The animals are commonly seen on the beach is a bird, dogs, crabs, or a bunch of fish. My favorite scene is when the fishermen pull nets from the sea to the beach. They do it in groups, most group members are women. While the men were at sea in order to herd fish into nets. Results from the catchment would be shared equally to all members of the group.
