There is a BIG !!! difference between a beach vendor and a bum . The intimadation factor is HUGE !!! As soon as an "aloe lady " touch's you then you owe her ,as soon as a bracelet guy touch's you then you owe him for it . I don't think so !!!! I buy lots of stuff as long as I WALK TO THEM !!!!!!! When we stop at Yellowbird each afternoon we always get the beach musicians to play some tunes and tip them very good . They never beg , try to steal , bother you just good hard working guys and ladies GIVING YOU SOMETHING FOR YOUR $'S !!!Take Yellowbird ,Marcia sells out everyday .She is pleasant , honest and has excellent products from cakes to fish . The lady selling towels etc at Yellowbird is hateful . If the security guy is not sharp her children are in purses and beachbags as soon as they hit the sand. Neville the patty guy ,the best you can get !!!! and he has my license plate on his bike.Then there are the kids....that's another story .
