The first swim of the summer.



Yes, it must be getting warmer.

Today I stopped for a swim at Petone Beach on the way back into town. Like most swims that aren't at the height of summer, the water felt icy from the outset, but by time I was back in the car I was glad I'd stopped.

And I was reminded once again (winter always has a way of making you forget) of how sand gets everywhere, and how it seems to stick to skin.

    Don't roll in it when you're wet.

  2. Sorry, I can't help it. I always want to get those lovely smells embedded in my fur.
