We swam today!

And we lived to tell the tale.

And before you go all "And?! What's so shaggin special about that, buddy?" let me be more specific: we swam in the ocean!
And not any ocean I might add. One of the Northern Atlantic persuasion!!!

And it wasn't the once-every-three-years 10 seconds of intense pain ritual.
The in-scream-out-scream dash from the bathrobe to the icy cold water back to bathrobe for just as long as it takes one to lose a pair of testicles.

Today Mrs Raheny and I swam for a good 20 minutes!

And then only we were sort of delighted to wrap ourselves into a fluffy beach towel.

Because towels are like puppies and kittens: the fluffier the better!
