The Mediterranean Sea

We spent a day on the beach. I'd have loved to have spent more time there but our hotel was a long ways away. When we got to the beach it was around noon and we were hungry. The area has dozens of restaurants that look out onto the beach. We choose the only one we could find open at noon (most open for lunch at 1 or 2). It turned out to be a good choice. Our view!
Drinking the cheap wine. Even at restaurants you can get really good wine for 10 - 15 Euro a bottle. We drank two.

Paella, so good. We ordered shrimp with garlic and a ham, egg and potato appetizer that was great. We got toasted bread that you could put mayo or a fresh tomato sauce on. Then came the paella. They even threw in free desert, two sponge type cakes with pudding and blueberry or strawberry sauce. What a great way to start the day!
We paid for a cabana and one chair. It cost 7.5 Euro per day. The beer was cheap so we had a few of those too.
Me in the ocean but you'll notice the leather woman in the foreground, she has no top on. In fact we saw a ton of topless women. Tops are optional I guess. Jeff took a few pictures but none that were G rated enough for the blog. This one cracked me up since the arm of a chair is strategically placed to cover boob.
The couple in the background were from California. How funny to sit right next to other Americans on the beach.
Daddy had fun covering Avery up.
The beach was HUGE! The biggest I've ever seen.
The topless leather woman from the back. Scary. I think she spends every day on the beach with her retired friends, not a bad life.
Daddy taking Avery out into the Sea. She enjoyed it.

Awesome beach I would go back again in a heartbeat!
