Mira Bilis, the German's are certainly noted for it. I've not seen these seats before but I would certainly prefer them to lying in the sun. It's nice to go on the beach for the lovely fresh air. Personally I prefer to walk along the beach in the evening when all of the sunworshi...

Looks great.  :)

I suspect those may be more for families with kids, or the elderly.  LOL, as a Brit who's witnessed Germans sunbathing first hand, they're notorious for hogging all the best spaces and laying in direct sunlight for hours until they turn a nice shade of boiled lobster.  ;D

MD it's always fun looking but it's more fun buying :) This is an art festival, there are paintings hanging on the outside of one of the tents. Atleast today looks like a nice sunny day compared to yesterday's downpours.

Lovely isn't it NQ. :)   I expect all those trees above the village help to reduce flooding from snowmelt ... tree roots make great sponges and also help to prevent landslides (hence the problems some places have with slides and flooding due to deforestation.)  Sorry, that's the ...

thanks Mira for the websites. I love how this village is built at the bottom of a mountain- http://www.gosautal.net/webcam/show/1/ I wonder if they get flooded out when the snow melts in the Spring ?

LOL!  They are seats with canopies ... very popular on many European beaches.  Everyone enjoys sunshine at the beach but if they're like me, they prefer to sit in the shade and enjoy the view, rather than frazzling into a piece of crispy bacon.  ;D

MD I'm done ignoring you ! I've gone through over 300 webcams and got rid of 45 dead cams, kept another dozen dead cams that I hope come back at some time and found that YIPPEE, Opentopia got rid of the baby crib cam  which was way too invasive of a webcam !

Help--somebody tell me what those things on the beach are ! They look like small benches with a covering to keep the sun off you but isn't the reason to go to the beach is to catch some sun.
