Trip to a beach

Went to a beach with our friend, S. This was the very first time that my girls went to a sea side. They had been dreaming about it for many years. So, it was nice to see them happy and splashing the water about. Actually, it's been about 12- 13 years since I went to a seaside. I just loved the smell of salty air. It reminds me of my gran's place which I visited every summer when I lived in Japan.

On the way to and from the beach, we went through 5 towns and villages. In between them, all you can see is hills, fields, trees and farm animals. Even townies like us can see such things easily 5-10 minutes walk away from home, but it was lovely sitting in a car watching such beautiful things. Oh, and I must mention that ice cream was lovely on the way back.

After coming back home, I realised that the top of my feet had a little sun burn! They don't look bad, they are not painful, but I felt a little tingle on the skin when having a bath that night. I put sun protection on every exposing skin of mine (except bottom of my feet!). And when I was sitting on the beach, I buried my feel (just for fun). So, why?
