Lockdown 692

Lockdown Day 692- 16 February 2022

So today the wind turned into a vicious West wind which flattened the ocean and allowed us a swim. It was however far choppier than we initially experienced, especially on the way back from the six pack.

We hugged the coast because of the wind which could potentially sweep anyone into the bay, which shortened the swim by about 150 metres.

I took to swimming long underwater breast stroke pulls, alternating with a known navy seal energy saver in choppy water, combining underwater freestyle pulls sideways, followed by a short glide and a strong breast stroke kick.

Swimming into the waves breaking on King's Beach felt good and as I walked along the shore, the clouds just became a spectacular frame for the Bay.

Later, the clouds gave way to the sun for the rest of the day. My ocean experience also had to give way to experiencing utter incompetency from professional people (again). People who don't stop to think about us "normal" people just doing our best to survive. Not considering the consequences of their actions.

But in all this there was an angel who made me realise I have much to be thankful for and reminded me of the blessings of God I failed to see. So tonight I am grateful people who are angels sent by God and for the little things I missed. And because God's got this. All the time.
