after church we had another batch of baptisms (pobre mateo estaba enfermo, y no estuvo... para la pra, ??eh?!) it was u:ber lovely for the end of september; warm sun, slight breeze, beautiful waters... it was too much to bear! So after a whole shmeal of standing at the edge of the water, keeping my feet cool, and trying my dangedest to keep my dress from hanging into the water [quite the fete as my dress is long, and I'm... well, short!] I finally gave in. Handed the digi-cam off to Pieter, who looked on in semi-confusion as Sara & I eagerly dove full on into the river!
yup, that's right... I dove in, dress and all.
for the record: very weird feeling to swim in a full length dress.
it was wonderfully refreshing! We got Andy to get in too, a couple others were already out there... *sigh* possibly the last swim of the year...
memories, baby!
btw: by the time I got to my home, I was basically dry. So I'll be toting my river watered self (and dress) off to Fox, no change necessary... *snicker, giggle*
