I swam at 4:00 this afternoon. No one to swim with - stood round in the water for 5 minutes then got out. Got back in as some wetsuit-ers were getting ready to go in. I figured they were real triathletes so i swam out halfway t0 the quarter by myself and kept turning around but they never gained on me. so i waited for them and we swam together to the half - but they were pretty slow and kept stopping - talk about meerkats! So I sort of swam back alone-ish. It was very swelly - but small fast rolling ones - the water was churned up so i couldn't see much out past the 1/4. i'm not sure i wanna see anything in this water as the tide is so low it only increases the concentration of crap. the smell swimming in yesterday was awful. huge wall of kelp today. yucch.
one day i'll get over my fear of sea lions and just do it.
but it's wwwaaaaaay more fun with pals.
janie came around 4:45 as i was headed up to shower. there were two fellas who i met at the half and then saw again as i headed in to the shore- a big bear of a guy who according to janie just swam the english channel.
didn't really catch anyone's name today - a guy larry and i forget the rest. yesterday i swam with janie and her friend don.
i love the A's halloween theme. caught it yesterday.
this water is so warm - i can't believe i swam in clear skies for two days now. my first time back in the ocean in nearly two weeks.
I can't wait to play with y'all tomorrow and sunday.
i heard the marine room was hopping today with leopards.-
oh i saw a few little fishies. no turtle no bass no mermaids.
