sunburnt

Summer's all about going to the beach with friends, BBQ, hanging out and getting toasted in the sun...That's exactly what I did over the weekend. ﾐ★(*^▽ﾟ)v

Saturday ~I went to a man-made beach with two of my Japanese friends. It was an odd experience... Seagaia is situated in Miyazki, famous for it's beautiful coast line. When my friend asked me to go to the beach in Miyazaki I was thrilled, thinking of the blue, clear water and hot, white sand. But when we arrived at our destination, I was a little bit puzzled. Then I realized the girls didn't really want to go to the beach where they might get a tan (^o^) Seagaia is literally a big swimming pool with different slippery slides situated in different sections of the complex. It also has fake waves rolling in for the little ones. It's completely under cover, so no-one can get sunburnt. The fake sand is made of white pebbles. The changing room is huge, and the shower is clean :)

Sunday ~ Total opposite of Saturday, I went to the "real beach" with Niki and Kim. Our aim was to get tanned so we don't look so pale. I can now say that I have a nice tan and it felt great to be in the salty, slightly fishy smelling water (^__^)

Mid-August, summer is passing by in a flash. Can't really go swimming in the ocean anymore, too many jellyfish floating around. Have to wait to next summer for the beach and floaty's to come out again...but the fireworks are still decorating the night sky.
