This morning I had the pleasure of taking breakfast down on the port of Mazarron. There was plenty of activities for everyone, I was attracted to the loud music to find a keep fit class happening on the beach. 85 degrees and the Spanish are doing keep fit. Worth trying to find a parking space to experience how the Spanish spend their summer holidays.

How do we get around this one, we keep being told to cover up the children from the sun, obviously. But then we are told not to let them go in the pool with suncream on. Kids are in and out like yoyos at this time of year, its proving a nightmare and a milky pool seems unavoidable to me. Anyone any ideas?
