BB is not swimming as a group
Today I stopped counting at one million swimmers. The surface of the sea was covered by swimmers in beautiful caps, all searching for either the two healthy turtles that were released yesterday or the sick turtle that is to be collected today. Like the fingertip or grid search conducted on a tv crime show, no square cm of the surface was left uncovered.
So I took some photos on land as well

Paul is such a card. Also a great swimmer

Sophie’s 500 km
Only two of the people in the celebration arch got int the shot
Every minute an instalment of swimmers entered like a scene from Lord of the Rings but better looking than Orcs



This swimmer had to go below the surface as there was no room above.

I did not see the turtle
However, I spoke to Juliette who did and tried to find me. But in such a crowd she did not manage. It was so very kind to try.
We already have a benefit from the turtles – not a single jimble today. I hope the turtles eat up big
Have a great day

Massive effort everyone! I was at surf com coordinating incidents on the beaches – OK, just 1, thankfully.
Thank you Elizabeth for doing so many fabulous blogs. You should be swimmer of the day every day.

Bluebottles hurt more.
But it may be different for those who are allergic to jimble!
