It was the first day of summer vacation, and [Courtney](65WTWKDH) was packing for her big trip! Her puppy, [Max](T4HDLWHX), wagged his tail excitedly, ready for the adventure.

Their destination? A sunny beach where the waves danced and the sand sparkled like tiny diamonds.

As [Courtney](65WTWKDH) and [Max](T4HDLWHX) arrived, they were welcomed by Leo the lifeguard, who kindly showed them where to set up their beach umbrella and towels.

[Courtney](65WTWKDH) couldn’t wait to build the tallest sandcastle ever, and [Max](T4HDLWHX) eagerly helped by digging with his tiny paws.

Suddenly, a curious crab popped out, waving its tiny claws as if to say hello.

“Hello!” said [Courtney](65WTWKDH). “Would you like to help us with our sandcastle?” The crab clicked its claws happily and got to work.

By the time they finished, their castle looked like a grand fairy-tale palace. Everyone on the beach came to admire it!

To celebrate, [Courtney](65WTWKDH) bought a coconut drink from the snack shack and shared it with [Max](T4HDLWHX) and their new crab friend.

As the sun set, [Courtney](65WTWKDH) and [Max](T4HDLWHX) felt grateful for their fun day and new friendship. “What a perfect vacation!” said [Courtney](65WTWKDH).

[Courtney](65WTWKDH) and [Max](T4HDLWHX) fell asleep dreaming of even more adventures, knowing the world was full of exciting surprises waiting to be discovered.
