Sun Shield

Outdoor dining. Not in the rain today but shielding the sun away. These umbrellas caught my eye against the brick buildings. Since they are for patio dining, I'm sure when it rains hard these get folded up tight. A rainy day tends to discourage outside eating or even drinking for that matter. I plan to dine under one of these today and hit a wave pool or two.
Today, may you too find a shady spot to dine or do whatever pleases your fancy.

    Unless the rain is very heavy, they should also shield from the water, it's cool to dine outside when it's raining! The bright yellow is cheerful!

    Well, I can forget outside today since it is raining, but I just might take a walk and go singing in the rain. Lovely yellow shade; I have "a thing" about umbrellas and love them!

    Nice. Just what I needed to see on a rainy day in Stavanger.
    Rain-rain go away. Let it be sunshine again.

    Enjoy your summer!

    Looks inviting. Have fun in the wave pool. Dine before entering however!

    Have a great summer day!! I've been away for awhile, back in Blogland as of today. I'll most likely be at Art in the Park on Saturday, maybe we'll meet...(I have no canopy, so it it's rainy I won't be there...)

    Oh, yes, I am big on outdoor dining. At my home in CT, there is a big side porch where dinner is held most evenings. Enjoy your jaunt.

    You, in a wavepool. Hhmmm...

    Love those umbrellas at restaurants. My parchment-colored skin can't tollerate much sunlight.
