UK - Scarborough - Sleeping beach bathers and digging boy

A middle-aged couple sleep on a blanket as a young boy digs a hole on the sandy beach at Scarborough. The generation gap is shown here with the older people unconscious after a day in sea air while the lad with the energy of youth puts much effort into shovelling sand from the growing hole. If they are related, they are oblivious as to the dangers of excavating holes on tidal beaches.
