A small success: swimming

This month's weather has been changeable, especially uncooperative at weekends. I grew tired of waiting for another non-workday clearly good for swimming and seized the opportunity, of mild weather with some sunshine, to return to the sea. At first, the water felt cold enough that I doubted that I would stay and, after I did leave the water, I remained fairly cold in the wind, especially when cloud blocked the sun.

In the sea, I largely had a rather good time, and did stay for a while: I got used to the water, and the wind made for fun, irregular waves that presented an ongoing swimming challenge. Especially, I love to face out into the sea and the sunshine, swimming into the wind and the waves. Back on the beach, somewhat towelled off, I ate nice snacks kindly provided by R. Now back home, I am dry, and warmly dressed.
