Orient Beach!


Look at the King! Look at the the King! Look at the King, the King, the King!
The King is in the altogether, but altogether, the altogether
He's altogether as naked as the day that he was born
The King is in the altogether, but altogether, the altogether 
It's altogether the very least the King has ever worn"


For some reason every time we are at Orient beach this song rolls over and over in my mind and I walk around with this huge grin!

Now I have no room at all to pass comment on the shapes and sizes we see on the beach and actually don't even hold any in reserve. To each his own and I salute their self confidence and lack of concern to walk bravely on the beach with nothing to hide.

Having said that now and again there are one or two that totally absorb our attention and generate a laugh or at least a smile. Believe it or not it has nothing to do with their physical attributes but usually something else and it's usually to do with a clothing combination.

Let me explain. Strolling down the beach is an Oomie, picture the same Oom about to stroll into an English or Irish pub! Smallish rounded old gent. Fine white hair and moustache! Cap on his head, nice white hip length t-shirt. Smart white shin length socks, brown lace up deck shoes, no not sandals today, ........ But no pants! Nothing! Nada!

Well he is in a nudist beach but it's combination with the rest of huge outfit that tickles my fancy. So wish to be able to take a picture.

Maybe it is lost in the telling but gave me a wonderful grin!

Then another one, about to go snorkel, wearing a second skin rash vest, mask and snorkel, fins on the feet as he enters the water but once again, no pants! Sorry but it so appeals to my sense of ridiculous! I just love it.

Another lady; ear phones plugged into her ears and iPod tucked into the back of her bikini bottoms, nope no top, danced the whole length of the beach and back a good half a kilometer! Appearing totally  oblivious to everyone on the beach watching her. Kungfu moves, street fighter like moves, ballet type moves, meditation yoga type moves all along the beach! Wish I could have heard the song she was listening too must have been amazing!

Thanks for the smiles, even if they were unaware they created them :)
