Day 103 - 25th September 2010 Saturday
Saturday we went to Dorset for the day; 14 of us from Brighton Swimming Club. It was organised by Big Mike; who hired a mini us and drove us there and back; he made the day so fantastic.
We swam around Lulworth cove to some amazing caves, then back to the beach and dressed for a pub lunch, then a 2 miles walk around the hillside to Durdle Door and another fantastic swim. What an incredible place. The sun was shining, the sky was blue, the water was a decent temperature, and the views were stunning. You really could have been anywhere in the Mediterranean. The day was made even better by being with such a fun and happy crowd of people; all there just to enjoy the swimming and the scenery.
It shows how beautiful England is. I am not saying I am all of a sudden going to be setting up camp in the coves around England, but I am certainly starting to appreciate what we have in our Country and who knows, maybe (just maybe) I might even be tempted one day to go camping and to stop being so precious about home comforts!!
