DAY ON THE BEACH = SUNBURN!

LIFE IS GOOD. We enjoyed Sanya and the boat rides and changing hotels. The Hotel we are checking into is in Shenzhen on the way home. It was called "The Wealth Hotel".




DANA LOVES TO BUY HATS. SHE ENDED UP WITH THREE OF THEM THIS DAY AND JAY MADE HER WEAR ALL OF THEM FOR THIS PHOTO.

DAY ON THE BEACH!
Somehow everytime we tried to post a picture on our blog, the server went off, so now we will write about this day at the beach. We left everything we thought might make us feel bad if we got our pack taken and headed to the beach. Jay spent the day in the ocean swimming and frolicing and just trying to get little tan. I put on sun screen, but he couldn't see any color so he didn't. After about 3 hours of playing in the water, which is really warm, we went up to Russian Hotel that was right off the beach with trees and bushes around it and played in their pool for another hour. There were only 5 other people there. It was nice because we got the salt water cleaned off. But then one of the hotel people gave us a note in English telling us that we couldn't stay if we weren't guests at the hotel. They had checked at the desk and no white people were registered.

Feeling a little singled out, we left the pool and headed down to the Russian section of the beach. It was really fun this day because Jay saw a Finnish flag in a store window and went right in and was able to talk to the Finnish clothing store owner in Finnish. He just went right on talking in Finnish with him for some time. We went back two days later and talked to 2 more Suomalisia, people from Kotka, Finland. Jay did such a great job with their language.

When we got home that night the pinkish tan color that Jay was hunting for was there. He was so burned and did that hurt. I just tanned a little and was fine. It was a good thing I put SP20 sunscreen on his nose that day or he would not have a nose left on his face.
