Story

This beach was crazy! There were SO MANY shells! We only had a few minutes at this beach, so we had to go fast. Basically we just had enough time to walk from the bus out to the water and then back to the bus. One of the members of our group made a wrong turn back to the bus and his Dad was searching frantically for him all over. They ended up sending the bus ahead and the dad and son caught a taxi to the next city.
