Common Sand Toys |
Yesterday we were coming back from a volunteer interview, and we decided to take a trip to the beach. We have not been to the beach recently because of the winter tourists, and because it was so cold the last month. I have not been cleaning up the beach for a while and I have been wondering what could have happened to the beach during our absence. It was a mess! Trash was everywhere! So I began to clean up. I started putting trash in a soda cup that I have been drinking out of only a few minutes earlier.

Stranger Things to Find on Lido Beach |
But that soon overflowed. Then I found a green bucket which was abandoned, so I started using that. But that too started to fill up quicker than I expected. Then I found a yellow bucket without a handle, and a second bucket made everything much easier because I could separate the keep from the trash. I keep the things that I can either reuse or make something awesome out of. Some of the normal keep things I found were pony tails, plastic sand toys, and a neat ball that I'm sure my sisters will enjoy playing with. The weirder things I found were a feathery flower, two silver spoons, and a rubber snake.
Speaking of rubber snakes, there once was a dolphin who ate a rubber snake that someone discarded. It is really important that trash and other things like toys, do not get left on the beach. (If any of these are yours, and you are near Lido beach, I can give it back to you.)
We had a great time, didn't we? It was amazing how much trash (and treasures) we found!
