miles 8 and 9 Swimming near Arisaig

On Friday went off after a hard days graft on the house for a dip in the sea at the end of the Rhu road.  Persuaded Pedro to come with me.  We were only out for 30 mins, it was not too cold but the tide was coming in fast, so decided only to swim to the rocks before the channel into Arisaig.

You can catch a glimpse of my swimming partner and here is the view from the jetty we set off from (apologies about the naked man in the fore-ground )

MILE 9

Yesterday - was in the water for 40 mins swimming along the beach (not literally).   It was a perfect day and I am so pleased to be getting in the water to swim but more importantly raising money for Cancer.  Felt very sad after the swim and was thinking about Mary a lot.  I do miss her and she would have loved this beach.
