Love the sailboat pics. What beach was this?
When on vacation I love to walk a few miles on the beach in the morning and before bed, but other than that, not so much.

We did baby oil on the bodies (burn!) and lemon juice in the hair. LOL at Cerrin’s comment about the radio announcer telling you when to flip

lol I dont remember iodine…but I do remember putting the lemon juice in your hair to give you the sun streaked hair. OH and flipping over every 15 minutes…I think the radio anouncer would even tell you when your 15 minutes were up. Mostly I rembember jumping in the waves.

We didn’t have sun on our recent beach visit. Lots more opportunities to come though.

My mom told me how when she was a teenager they used to take masking tape and spell out their boyfriend’s name on their back before lying out in the sun so they had their true love’s name emblazoned on them for all the world to see. I guess if you broke up you wore a shirt over your suit when you went to the beach.

I love the beach. We tend to go off-season though.

Oh I would love to see some water! Living in the desert, you get to crave seeing it once in a while! Thanks for the vicarious cooling off from your pictures!

We love the beach too. We used to dream of living in a shack on the beach – I’m afraid even a shack there is too expensive for us these days.
