Beach Etiquette


Turkish Beach

    WE LEARN HERE  that Cape Cod officials are warning Russian tourists to quit doffing their clothes in public.

"Many Russian swimmers change into and out of their bathing suits, covered only by a towel - if anything - on the sand or in the parking lot of Glendon Beach in Dennis, police said. And other beach-goers have begun to complain.

``It's a cultural difference,'' said Dennis police Capt. William Monahan. ``They're not doing it to be titillating. They're just used to changing at the beach.''

   It seems to be a European thing, not just Russian.  A few years ago I was relaxing at a Palm Desert hotel pool when a middle aged frau and her husband staked out the chaise longues (did you notice I did not say "chaise lounges?")  next to me.  Mrs. Hairy Lip proceded to strip naked and put on her swim suit. When she noticed me watching, slack jawed, she scowled.
