I don't have anything against the sun, but it did a lot of damage to my skin in my younger years, so I stay covered up now. I haven't gone out in the sun unprepared since about 1997. Yes, makes it interesting to spend a week at the beach on vacation, but that's what sunblock and thatched beach umbrellas are for! Surprisingly, about 25% of the other guests here are like me, always holed up in the shade, while the other 75% seem to be on a mission to see how much sun they can get. Usually I'm in more of a minority but maybe skin cancer awareness is growing? Who knows.
My other surprise for the week is just how many people have tattoos. Hard to cover those up in swimwear if you got 'em. I'd say also 75% or more. My ghost white, non-tattooed hide is straight out of Sesame Street..."one of these things is not like the others." Ha!
