Choppy

What a difference a day makes! The wind wasn’t that strong but it was coming from the south, which results in the shore getting a bettering. The same goes for anyone foolish enough to swim in it. There was a lot of debris in the water today; large clumps of seaweed, various small pieces of wood and other bits and pieces. I had swum about 250m when I realised a thin stick had managed to get tangled up in the rubber chord which secures my earplugs. I felt this odd poking at my face before I realised what it was. The combination of the waves and the debris made up my mind and I turned back, meaning I only completed 500m today.
