Ibiza 2022 impressions

We really need to spare a thought for young ladies coming of age these days.

3 years ago when a young lady arrived at a beach on Ibiza, she would spend a few minutes getting the perfect selfie and post it on social media.

Last year, from my observations, the same-aged young lady would now record a 30-60 seconds 360 degrees video of herself and the beach whilst dancing to some imaginary tune, and then post the video on social media. Her poor boyfriend would be trying not to be too embarrassed by his gf's dancing (without music) on the beach for some tiktok or whatever video.

This year it's a full 30 minute session with never-ending selfies, dancing and video recordings. Unlike previous years, pics these days are just as much pics of the butt as of the frontal part of the body. Also, every variant of topless and not, with hands covering over, and topless with back to the camera being deployed. The perfect shot can long longer be a selfie. Young ladies get help from strangers (other girls who happen to be on the beach and willing volunteer to help) to get dat perfect shot from behind whilst she is turning her head back towards the camera whilst topless.

God help us for whatever is in store for next year.
Is this a "Selfie stick for sale" post in disguise?

And it's only April..
 
still sat at home due to bloody covid, but the weather outside is beautiful and judging by the pics & vids on socials from many many beach bars and such, I guess the season has indeed well and truly started now!

I once did a selfie video. OK - in mitigation m'lud it was accidental. I was filming a quiet beach, put the camera down and forgot. Went for a swim and emerged in front of camera. Still without realising, put the camera in bag and toddled off; next time I got it out I wondered why the battery was flat. Only when I got home and reviewed the vids did I realise the horror of it all.

I've learned my lesson and I promise youtube, ticbloodytoc and instacrap will never see that again, ever. Sleep soundly children.
 
Big crowd of people queueing outside Hi (nearly typed Space by default there...) this morning. Assume workers recruitment?
