Topless bathing

This time of the year you're reminded how they love their topless bathing here. Not that I go to the pool or anything, but on my walk the other day I went past the Pully plage (pool) and saw a topless woman. Not an uncommon sight.

It was the most prevalent in Majorca. Every second person, it seemed, was topless. And it crossed all boundaries...age, body shape, weight, boob size. And because the place was full of Poms, you can only assume it was naked Poms we were seeing. MK's funniest - and probably only - comments were 'it's the Breast of Britain' and to ask 'do you need to put sunscreen on nipples?'. Ewwwwww.

I'm not sure you'd see as much topless bathing in resorts and on public beaches in Australia and definitely not in the States. I think it might be a European thing.

We liked it Heather, although admittedly we only saw Magaluf (if it was in walking distance from our hotel). Pick the right hotel and I don't think you can go wrong.
