The weather was just perfect! Obviously, I got sunburned on my shoulders. When the sun began to set, we decided to play volleyball with a soccer ball. Unfortunately for me, the ball chipped the tip of my nail, which caused my real nail to detach slightly from my finger. So, I took a trip to the hospital, where I was treated wonderfully! Luckily, it was not too serious, and it will heal on its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"307\" height=\"410\" src=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-5.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-5.png 307w, https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-5-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 307px) 100vw, 307px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The sun at the beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"457\" height=\"363\" src=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-6.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7848\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-6.png 457w, https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-6-300x238.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 457px) 100vw, 457px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A sandcastle made by Kim and I<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"491\" height=\"549\" src=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-7.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7849\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-7.png 491w, https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-7-268x300.png 268w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 491px) 100vw, 491px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Me in the hospital<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"389\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-8.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-8.png 389w, https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-8-249x300.png 249w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 389px) 100vw, 389px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Me feeling a little bit like a zombie<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, we went to the Waterfront to do some shopping to buy souvenirs.
