Ahhh yes, the dreaded sunburn itch. Enemy of beachgoers the world over.

I'm cursed with fair skin and usually burn at the very thought of sunlight. Needless to say this has happened to me on a number of occasions, and none of them were any fun.

A couple of weeks ago, I got sunburned, too. I was on a beach in Sarasota, by the Gulf of Mexico, when I fell asleep for a couple of hours. Though if you ask me, the itching is definitely better than the searing pain that lasts for half a week. It hurt to rest against a seat or lie down on bed. Yikes!

 

You're right, though. Ice cold showers never felt so good.

Well, I hear you there. Pale skin and sun are not a very friendly combination.

I didn't mind the searing pain as much, really, but I can see your point - the itching has pretty much subsided by now, but searing would have lasted for a week or two.
