Lifeguard

This is a lifeguard stand behind the Barcelo Langosta Beach Resort.  Sometimes there is a lifeguard on duty, and sometimes there is not.   Being a lifeguard must be like being a fire fighter.  You hope you never get called, but when you do, it can be crucial.

This is a good spot for a lifeguard because the Langosta Estuary flows in and out near this location.  When the tide is going out, it is best to stay to the side of the estuary mouth, as it is like a river flowing out to sea.  I have walked across the estuary mouth but I do not swim in the ocean in front of the estuary when the tide is flowing out.  It is best to stay to either side of the estuary mouth.

This week we have photos of Africa posted on our  Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

    Nice to have them around. I have never seen a lifeguard at my favorite beach.

    I remember that estuary and how swiftly the water moved at times. You made sure you were on the correct side, or wait until it was safe to cross.

    Safety often depends on a good sense of precaution!

    Looks like a beautiful tropical paradise.

    Interesting comment you made about pools. I was told it would cost $22,000 to fill ours in. So I said "No thanks," and then we sold the house a few years later to people who wanted a pool! :-)

    Yes, like firefighters. It is best when they are bored.

    Hey there, I think your website might be having browser
    compatibility issues. When I look at your website in Ie, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
    I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, fantastic blog!
