Seeing as Neeka and I each traveled with one small bag we did not bring towels, shampoo, soap, sunscreen or really any liquid over 100ml (damn new flying security measures). The first day we arrived to Barcelona we bought a bottle of shampoo and used it for nearly everything (Soap, shampoo, body wash, and even moisturizer - Neeka thought I was crazy to use it as moisturizer but my legs were just so dry, I needed something).
When we got to the beach we found chairs set up where you can pay to use them, this was perfect seeing as it made our day much more comfortable than having to lay right on the sand. It was well worth my 5 euros. After lathering up (with shampoo -haha) I was ready to soak up the sun. I didn’t really swim much but when I got in the water I did begin to suds up a little from the shampoo on my body, that was interesting. We left at about 4 to have lunch and then head to the airport. The lack of sunscreen was slightly noticeable as our faces were a little rosy, but what can you do. No real issues at the airport and set off to return to Madrid. All in all it was a great relaxing day. 
At our gate before boarding (boarding a bus that is, haha which then took us to the plane)

That’s very creative to use shampoo as a sunscreen lotion,I should try that, haha.
Suds while swimming, that I would’ve liked to see, but you were in the Mediterranean sea and not in the swimming pool. Nice pictures.

As Mr. Bean says: "The beach. Ah."
Gracias.
Enjoyed your descriptions and the photos of course. It's amazing what you can come up with when you don't have the things you are used to.
Bet you were the cleanest girl on the beach!
Your writing really gives a great picture of what you are doing.
Bravo!
Mom
