Two hours

The gusty wind brought with it mini sand storms that hit you right in the face and body. Tiny brownish particles hang on to you thanks to the sticky lotion you slap on. Not long after, the lazy body had to turn around, chest on the sand with head buried under the arms. Hat as the last protection and beach bag as a barrier against the sand. Yet you can't escape. Those pesky sand still get into your mouth, nostrils and ears.
