“I feel as if we’ve been at Kirrin for about a month already!” said Anne, stretching herself out on the warm sand, and digging her toes in. “And we’ve only just come!” “Yes—it’s funny how we settle down at Kirrin so quickly,” said Dick. “We only came yesterday, and I agree with you, Anne—it seems as if we’ve been here ages. I love Kirrin.” “I hope this weather lasts out the three weeks we’ve got left of the holiday,” said Julian, rolling away from Timmy, who was pawing at him, trying to make him play. “Go away Timmy. You’re too energetic. We’ve bathed, had a run, played ball—and that’s quite enough for a little while. Go and play with the crabs!”
