In Hermanus on Monday to collect our unsold paintings from an art gallery we decided a bit of tidal pool swimming was in order. We discovered Ficks Pool and decided that was the right thing to do.

The water was icy probably 16°C but still we swam and it was fun.

And I got caught by a wave!

We had coffee and a pizza in a restaurant overlooking the pool afterwards.

Freesia caryophyllacea is a dwarf, perennial geophyte endemic to the #WesternCape and forms part of the #fynbos. The species occurs from #Wolseley to #Swellendam, #Hermanus and the #AgulhasPlain. The plant grows to a height of 5 to 10 cm. The plant has already lost 77% of its habitat to agricultural activities, urban development and invasive plants. The phenomenon is still ongoing.
