We packed up and made it to the beach by 10:30 ( I think ) . After about an hour or two it started to fucking rain . I tried to stay at first ducking under our umbrella , but it continued to rain , got worse , and Sarah insisted on going home .

Question: What could the narrator have done at the beach instead of going home ?
Answer: The narrator could have gone for a swim in the lovely warm ocean water .The narrator could have set up a barbecue and cooked some hot dogs for their friends .The narrator and friends could have gathered around a bonfire .The narrator could have set up a towel to sunbathe to enjoy the beach .
