Shark Rider

Pink Cap Swimmers don't let those stinkin' sharks keep us from having fun! No! We harness those bad boys and ride 'em!

This shark fin rock is the landmark of Bruce's cave, which lies in the waters below. The architect planned that one well! We found Bruce, the reformed fish-eater of Nemo fame, sitting on his cave doorstep. He was happy to pose, flashing his gleaming teeth.

The swimmers were jubilant to finally have blue skies, sunshine and no white caps, as our color of choice is pink caps on the water. Being between Spring Equinox and the New Moon has turned on the force of the currents and tides. The extreme low tides prevented us from swimming some of our shallow adventures. We did get an adventure drift ride to the distant turn-around point. We started to bob and chat prior to reaching the cliff. It must have been a great conversation because when we looked to shore, we had drifted the entire length of the cliff! That made for "swimmill" swimming home, bucking into the current on the swimming treadmill. There was no chatting on the return swim, or we'd loose ground drifting backward.
