This Labor Day I went to Newport Beach, with my brother, his girlfriend and friends. It was the first holiday in a long time that I had gotten the day off of work. It was about an hour and a half drive to get there, but it was worth it. The weather on the way there was not the the greatest, as we got closer to Newport I was beginning to feel bummed out. The day seemed pretty cloudy and there was a ten percent chance of rain. When we arrived we figured we would make the best out of this trip. 

We found a spot were to set our things, and as the day progressed the weather got much better! The sun was out and we decided to go to this shop we had seen to rent beach bikes. We went on a two hour bike ride, we rode along the side of the beach where people enjoyed their selves in their beach houses.  Although the houses look small they seem fun to live in, having the beach as your backyard. As i rode along I saw many people having barbeques, listening to music an having drinks with friends and family. As our bike ride came to an end i was feeling tiered,( I didn't really think I would have work out of this day). We returned our bikes and headed for the water.

I was really exited to get in the water, even though i don't know how to swim. I wanted to have fun and enjoy the nice sunny day! The water seemed freezing and as I approached the cold water I came to a stop to realize I had stepped on something and it hurt! I looked down to see what it was and i had stepped on a bee!! ;(  It hurt sooo much, the bee's stinger was in my foot! And i finally managed to get it out. The pain was crazy! I never thought it would hurt that much. As the day went on the pain became less and i decided to jump in the water (this time i looked out for any more bees on the ground. lol.) The water was indeed freezing and very salty, we enjoyed our time in the water though. I had lots of fun.

After been in the water we laid out to get some sun, some of us ended up taking a nap. After we all were awake it was time to head back home.. When we got home our families were having a barbecue and thank goodness because after all the fun at the beach we were starving! The carne asada was awsome! After a long day  I was super tired, but i will definitely go back to Newport Beach. I wish i had gone to the beach more ofter this summer but because of work its sometimes hard. Maybe next year i'll have way more beach trips that i can enjoy with my family and friends. =)
