Chinese culture + sun is a bizarre relationship.
They seem to love being out in the blazing sunshine, flocking to the beautiful beaches en masse.
Yet, do not allow a single ray to touch their skin, hibernating below giant umbrellas, almost creating a blanket of shade across the sand.
Asian's in general do seem to look much younger than their true age and avoiding sun exposure has to be a contributing factor to this. I shall appreciate this even more when Im a tanned wrinkly prune-like lady at 40.

Other beach related facts:
- Large number of speedo trunk wearing individuals - ewww, not necessary
- Disrespect for the environment with blatant littering going on - grrr

Miss you, wish you were here with me to enjoy the sunny shores of Asia
