Overcast
August 6, 2007
The beach has been sort of overcast, threatening everyone with thunderstorms, which is fine, because I’ll accept thunderstorms as long as I still get to be on vacation.
As soon as we set up our towels, the lifeguards kicked everyone out. I walked on the boardwalk for a while. Children searched for small patches of sand in which they could carry on their digging, and everyone else crowded under the few awnings to avoid the approaching downpour.
It cleared up after a while and people started back towards the beach again, like this guy, who reminded me to get henna while I was here, since my Syrian grandmother was a big fan, and there are places here that do it well.
And then my sister was a dinosaur. The end.

Molly’s a crazy one. Hope you at least get a little bit of sun tomorrow.
I can understand the man’s ears, but those bars around his wrists are pretty extreme. That’s a lot of ink.

ah, your beach trip looks a whole lot more fun than mine was. I certainly didn’t see any interestingly tattooed men.
..or the sun.

So, what are you eating? There are so many interesting restaurants there, especially when you leave the big commercial parts and head towards the smaller beaches.
There’s a restaurant I love in Dewey Beach, I can’t remember the name of it, but if I do, I’ll let you know.

Robert - I’ve been all over the place, eating way more than necessary, mostly seafood because, well, it’s the ocean. The shops get better too!
