You can see army sentry posts and barbed wires all along the coast.  However, there were no army personnel during the day.  According to our friend they guard these posts at night.  Infiltration from Japan maybe ….

The town was quite quiet during this time of the year.  When it is summer, this place gets crowded like crazy.

Hardly anyone at the beach, water was still very cold.   A more serene beach was down South but it was barb wired.
