Day 100 - 21st September 2010
A milestone – my hundredth day. Interestingly enough today is Official Peace Day (set up by my friend Jeremy Gilly from Peace One Day). So it’s kind of fitting that my day 100 should fall today of all days.
To recognise this day Leo, Bob, Fiona, Young Mike, Evo and I jogged to the Peace Statue and swam back to the Arches. The day started out very foggy, you could almost not see more than 50 yards ahead of you. It must have been interesting to see six of us jogging towards you through the fog in nothing but our swimming gear and goggles!!
When we got to the Peace Statue we took some pictures and then headed into a very calm and quite warm ocean. It was a fantastic swim because as we swam back towards the Palace Pier the fog was lifting, eventually completely clearing.
A lovely way to celebrate a day of Peace.
