Does anyone else not like the beach?

I don't see what is so great about it. It is just a crowded desert. I guess it is okay if all you do is read and sit under a umbrella, but I would rather read inside in the air conditioning. The worst part is after you get out of the water. No matter how hard you try the sand will get on you and stick like glue. I really don't enjoy sitting in the heat with sand caked to my ass.
