Beach, Sweat, and Jellyfish...

So I have been here since Saturday afternoon and temperature has been steaming into the mid 90's and lots of sweat. We spent most of the day at the beach, and in between soaked our tired bodies in our beach house's private swimming pool and hot tub. August is a high season for jellyfish in the South Carolina's beaches. In the past two days since we were here a lot of people had gotten stung by jellyfish and they were in severe pain. The best treatment was to apply cool vinegar to wash the affected area. If you use tap water it would discharge the poisonous venom that was left on the surface of the body or skin. If you are at the beach, use sand to scrap off any cells leftover from the sting.

I have been boogie-boarding a lot these past two days and it was fun. If you don't know what boogie-boarding means, you can check here.

Back to the beach...
