It was that time of year again, the time to celebrate and join in on the celebrations on the island but this time around it was nice and warm that had taken hold of the island and what better way to celebrate then go down to the beach and watch the waves along with playing in the sand. All dinosaurs joined in on the celebrations of the warm weather, even some enjoying the waves and beach that the island was surrounded by. It was beach party time and most made their way down to the coast to dig their claws into the yellow sand.

“Oh I can wait for the sun bathing on the warm sand, it’s going to feel so nice” a voice said followed by others who nodded in agreement before saying their two scents, but the first voice was none other then Sandworm, a large male iggy who spotted a black and white pattern down his body followed by a bright blue beak. He wasn’t alone as his seven herd mates had accompanied him on the well needed break to celebrate from all the moving and traveling they had done on the island this year. They were all young iguanadons and this was their first time celebrating and following suit with the older island inhabitants, it was a fun experience especially when you are with seven of your friends.

Sandworm led the way as they made their way down into the coastal area of the beach with the wind being warm and the ocean splashing against the rocks with the tide coming in, other herds such as parasaurs and styracosaurs also had joined in which made the beach busy but it was to celebrate. 

“Time to celebrate with some relaxing and sun bathing” Sandworm said as he pushed past some of his herd mates one of them nodded in agreement as they followed behind him looking for a perfect spot to dig up and lay down in the three of them sinking into the sand with each step.

“Thanks for inviting us Sandworm, we are always down to pause and have some fun to celebrate” one of his friends bellowed slightly before shifting his tail, flicking sand and flopping to the ground. Sandworm nodded and laughed before following suit and watching as small styracosaurs chased each other passing by them, the rest of his herd mates taking some time to stop by the water and enjoy it. The seven of them had grown up since hatchlings and made sure their group always came together to spend some time on the island as Sandworm typically stuck alone or to smaller groups so it was nice to catch up with them again.

A large female iguanodon made her way over to the small group and smiled before laughing “well look who showed up, if it isn’t Sandworm I know that white and black hide from anywhere” she said stopping at the group and greeting them. 

“What a good way to celebrate huh?” She added before looking at the giant group of seven of them. With Sandworm nodding and greeting her back before laying down in the sand fully to bake,

“Well it is that time to celebrate with the herd, seems like everyone is in the mood for it and I can’t say not to beach watching and basking” he said before stretching out and watching her sit down joining the small group.

Over near the water there was a bunch more of the group of seven enjoying the waves and taking a soak while others played in the sand followed by other herbivores joining in on the fun of the beach. As Sandworm slept he felt a pinch on his beak waking him up from his heat nap, and to his surprise he was met eye level with a bunch of crabs a small group of seven that were making their way across the sand and Sandworm and his group of friends were just in the way for the tiny crustaceans who called the beach their home.

“Looks like everyone is coming to celebrate” he snorted before standing up and shaking the sand off with the rest of his friends just waking up from their warm naps letting out yawns and looking to go enjoy the others in the water which wasn’t a bad idea. Sandworm slowly made his way over stepping over young styracosaurs and parasaur who were playing around their sleeping parents, while others played games and found other activities to do on the beach.  

“Ahh time for some relaxing water play” he grumbled to himself as he entered the water and dropped down letting it splash on his dried scales, his tail swaying with the small waves that came in from the tide, everyone seemed like they were enjoying themselves which was a nice break from the islands challenges they faced on a daily.

Soon joined by his other herd mates and friends they all relaxed and talked about the stories of traveling here and how they looked forward to celebrate this year on the beaches of the island with Sandworm splashing around playfully at the others before listening in on more stories. Eventually having the other herds join them with hearing about the styracosaurs travel to get here and all the things they had encountered on the way.

It was the first time Sandworm had joined this year and it was something he would be looking forwards to next year especially with his group of seven who accompanied him this time around and besides everyone needed a little time to celebrate and take a break once in awhile and what better place to do it then on the beach itself. Getting late now others had headed out with some staying back and continuing to celebrate and one of the seven were Sandworm, he wasn’t just done yet there was more to do, he was enjoying his time and didn’t want it to just end yet.
