Tanning Discovery

We've been going tanning in preparation for Cuba; the theory is that if we establish a base tan, the Caribbean sun won't shock/fry our poor little white bodies.

I started out at six minutes, and today at eleven minutes I found my tanning threshold, or at least a slow-down point. Yup, I got sunburnt. Er... tanning bed burnt? I'm pink.

I've got one pretty major tan line - down the middle of my back. I guess the way I lay squishes my back together and left one area protected from the UV rays? There's a white stripe going up my back now. A racing stripe. Woot.

And so the aloe comes out already.
