Saturday, March 26th, 2022

 

There was better visibility today, I could see the full length of both piers and the Avila Rock so the fog was not going to inhibit our choice of routes. The water temp was up to 55°, but with the lack of sun it would swim more like 53°. The air temperature was 50° and it was calm. There was a mix of swells from the south and southeast, right in sync with the approaching cold front. 
Jodi, Tiki and Niel got in just after 8. This route was just something interesting would make the desired distance and not intended to look like anything. Tiki was wearing a borrowed wetsuit that leaked like a sieve. She got cold and went in from our second visit to the end of the Avila Pier.  Going in with Tiki would put us just under 3200M so Jodi and I took pushed the distance and took a swing around the reef buoy.

I did not see Tom, his car or Sue because they swam in Cayucos

The big news of the day is that Tiki was accepted at UC Berkeley and will start there in the fall!  What a month for her; turn 18, get accepted into the Avila Lifeguards Academy and UC Berkeley! 

I'll be back tomorrow to swim at 11. No rain until Sunday night/Monday AM.
