Patrick Ponders. And Check those tan lines!
I suppose it is time to talk about my tan. Despite my attempts to be on the beach for at least an hour every day, or find some other way to moderate my tan lines, I have some pretty serious contrast on my skin.
To begin, my shoulders and arms are pretty dark. This is partly because I started with a base farmers', but also because I forgot sunblock on the first day. I was red as a lobster in two small areas that night.
Then my legs have been darkening, but only from just above the knee down. The bike shorts take care of the
rest, and the backs of my legs get the most sun.
After that: my face is getting darker, and my stomach/chest and back are staying just as pale. No matter what I do, I cannot seem to darken those areas.
If you heard me talking about biking shirtless before the trip, you are right. I had planned that. Unfortunately I never had the time or sunlight to go sit and even myself out enough to spend all day with my shirt off.
