When it's a little too surfy for your taste but the fog burns off while you're on your walk and the water is so warm you brave the waves and come home with sand and bits of seaweed in your drawers.

Well, that was a first. I've been overheated before but never IN THE POOL. And it was a balmy 89. OK, feels like 108. And when I slid into the water, I thought, this is warm. But still.

CW: Bikini rant - low stakes caution for sure
I try on bikinis and hate every one. Not because of how they look (tho some are def less than flattering) instead it's how they feel that makes me bonkers. Elastic that cuts in. Boob support that feels like torture, or rides up. Wedgies. Ugh.
Yet my New Balance sports bra and Maiden Form boy short underwear - I can wander around in those forever.
Why can't I find a bikini that comfortable? Something lounge-able and dip-able?

Ran to the beach for a (crowded) lunchtime swim. The surf is supposed to calm down later today, but cloud cover is also rolling in with a chance of showers.
Aside from the large number of people, it was glorious. (A couple of plovers flew past as I was taking the second photo)

Went to the Hampstead mixed swimming pond this morning as the ladies’ pond is closed due to an overgrowth of blue-green algae. Several unsightly geezers to steer around, but otherwise perfectly good. The air is getting cooler… not quite sure I have the grit for colder weather outdoor swimming. #london #swimming #fitness #waterways #outdoors

Why swimming in the Rhine is allowed in Switzerland but banned in Germany.
Basel has spent decades making the Rhine safe for swimmers, while German cities are imposing bans.
Could a growing European push to reclaim urban waterways change that?

CW: Note: I don't work here!
I guess it’s the laptop and the pile of towels that cause the confusion, but people keep asking me questions (usually in Spanish) about where to get towels from and whether they can use the pool at this hotel. And I have to keep explaining that nope, I don’t work here, I’m just watching my […]

And I have to keep explaining that nope, I don't work here, I'm just watching my kids play while I catch up on my RSS reader!
