Last Summer Short story using Simple Past  Last summer, my family and I had an amazing vacation at the beach. We woke up early every morning and walked along the sandy shore. The waves crashed gently, and seagulls flew overhead. We collected colorful seashells and watched crabs scurry along the water's edge. During the day, we played beach volleyball and built magnificent sandcastles. My little sister giggled while she buried me in the sand, and we all laughed together. The sun was bright, and the water was refreshing. We also enjoyed delicious ice cream cones, trying different flavors each day.
