We had picture perfect weather for most of our week, with temperatures between 70 and 80 degrees. This allowed me to experiment a bit with sun tanning.
1. SPF 30 worked just fine. In past years I'd done SPF 50.
2. The first day or two I tried my normal (or should I say Normal) routine - two hours at a stretch, flipping over every half hour. I quickly found that I was near broiling in the second hour, so I started breaking every hour for 30-60 minutes. That gave me a good 3-4 hours of sun time per day. I think that helped me set the family standard for most hours outside without a sunburn.
The results were completely acceptable... a good base tan to launch the upcoming summer months!
