Washing Machine

Kru: Mr. Anonymous, Ben, relative newcomer and blog follower
Shore Support:  Mr. Bubble 


I came down to do a scouting report for Rachel, who said she might go swimming mid-day.  She says big chop makes her sea sick, so thought I'd do her a solid and provide a scouting report.  It's a long drive from her house to Klode.  

I'm getting over a cold myself so didn't come prepared to jump in.  However, as expected, managed to get my shorts wet just by wading in to ankle depth when the waves came crashing.  

Ben didn't quite make it to sewer pipe before deciding discretion is the better part of valor.  He was swimming skin without a Barbie, so that was using good judgement.  

Mr. A cruised out to just before rockwall before coming back.  12 minute swim for him.  Probably would have taken me 45 minutes.  

"Washing machine" was Mr. A's description.  

Here's a photo and some videos
