Beach Bliss !
... the ATM has the best AC inside so its worth the walk! Away from the main promenade there are little shack type restaurants and more shops , you can buy anything here. Pity we are not here for shopping.

There are a lot of Russian tourists ...

We shouted a warning to him, he saw the snake and immediately set Olympic standard qualifying marks for both the high jump and 100 metres. (We think he’s a medal prospect).
