I agree with you Douglas, when I was a child I was on desertic beaches close
my birth town Reus (close to Tarragona, and Salou), now there crowded of
people, hotels.... I don't like any more.

Saludos cordiales
Luis

Oh to have been on Peter's lovely, uncrowded beach...

It seems most of the British holidaymakers were in Scarborough - when it's
hot the promenade there has a prevading smell of sweaty armpits and used
chip fat (frying oil). Shot with a moderate wide-angle (24mm)  so it really
is that packed. Scarborough used to be a wonderful spa resort (so healthy
that one of the Bronte sisters died in a hotel there) but is now the target
of busloads of chip gorging shell-suit wearers (OMG, I'm getting a touch
intolerant in my old age :-) ) who now put up tents on the sands - whatever
happened to the old-fashioned stripy canvas windbreaks?
