The beachside weekend was fantastic as also was the weather. Every morning the locals set up the sand with tables, chairs and beach umbrellas to be hired out for the day by the visitors. Then every evening they are packed away. The crowds flock to the beach; however, they do very little swimming. One only has to observe the strong Pacific Ocean shore break and resultant undertow to see why! The younger generation set up tents and camp the night, however, possibly the best way to enjoy the scene is to sit, sip and watch the sunset.
