Welcome to our swim blog... it's all about swimming in the ocean, mostly in the La Jolla, California area. We're open-minded, open-water fans -- enjoying local marine creatures, fish, yellow tails, birds and even the occasional human swimming by... Just like to get BACK TO THE WATER, whenever and as often as we can!

monday 12/6
noon swim. water temp 56. light surge. no waves. clear inside all the way to the quarter. midway between the 1/4 and the 1/2--a WALL of red tide. around the A it was THICK with kelp. i was crawling over the kelp to get outta there. total distance 1 mile +. marta and i were in there just to log the distance. not very much fun.

I did the 'tour de' stick zigzag' to the 1/2 and back via the A (1.25mi). Hated the kelp. Gonna avoid it for a while. I was told the water was 54 and on the inside I believe it; outside it felt like 56. I saw squid out nearer the 1/2...they looked like flying white uh...projectiles - outer space, yeah that's it! Keeping those miles going up up up...
