Snorkelling

I went snorkelling at Normanville over the holidays. The water is remarkably clear and there are virtually no waves most of the time, so the conditions are perfect. I was hoping to see a Leafy Sea Dragon, but I wasn’t that lucky. We saw plenty of tiny fish though.

I discovered that I float much more easily that I used to. I can only conclude that global warming is making the sea saltier and hence more dense ;-)

    Gee, it hadn’t occurred to me that I float better because I had put on some weight ;-)

    […] I decided to do a few laps at the pool the other day. I haven’t done any significant swimming since high school, so I am a little out of practice, but at least I have the advantage of floating better now […]
