Answer
the absolute best thing is to keep your legs out of the sun. it's not the end of the world if you wait until next fall, but realize that right now you're on schedule to treat hair in anagen phase, when it's most vulnerable. so basically, if you wait until fall, you will need more treatments overall because you will have to get all your hair in synch through several treatments once you start up again. not keeping on schedule for all your initial treatments basically just postpones your overall results and adds on extra treatments to achieve the same results as you could achieve with less treatments if you didn't skip.
Answer
I agree with blink888. If you wait you may have to worry about uneccessary treatments that may have not been required if you stayed on schedule and finished the treatment cycle. I wouldnt go sunbathing where newly treated areas may be exposed.
