Wild Swimming Every Day

This morning's swim was a perfect way to start the day - breaking the mirror-glass surface where swifts (swallows???) performed acrobatics, skimming the water to pick up food. The morning mist burned off around 7 am, and by just after 7 one or two other people turned up to dive in. The water in lakes and rivers is warmer this year than ever, and with air temperatures in the mid-20s every afternoon, we make sure every walk is designed to include at least one swimming/ dipping opportunity. Even paddling your feet recharges the batteries!
