    just got back from Spain and you do have to be careful....the sunbeds with arms are best but a good trick is to put your bed next to a step if poss so you step off with your feet lower than the ground if you see what I mean!...other than that a helping hand is always useful!! Don't worry...there are always ways and means!! Enjoy!

    That's a good question. I don't see you doing it by your self. Someone will need to give you their hand to pull up on.
