A Day At The Beach

An unexpected bonus so far is that we are 20 minutes walk away from a lovely beach. We walked there this morning (earlier this time to avoid the midday heat cause we are learning to live in this climate) along the side of the highway in front of the campus. It’s a public beach so we didn’t have to pay to enter. We were slightly worried about the quality of the beach but are very happy to report that it exceeds expectations. It’s Wednesday (we’ve been here exactly one week) so there was only a family there enjoying the beach. Another fabulous thing was that there was music for our enjoyment. Don frolicked in the ocean while I watched from under my umbrella. One thing I’ve learned so far about surviving this heat is that my umbrella is my best friend!
