Week 2 Day 2

Today was much better in the pool. I switched up my lane and felt better for it. Had an enjoyable and interesting workout. In addition to all the mileage, we also did some vertical dolphin kicks and dolphin dives. Coach Nancy said we had to get our "personalities" out of the water...(below the belt). I would hazard a guess to say that people found this to be quite fun. I swam 3050 meters this am and 2700 this aft. Felt less anxious than yesterday.

My new friends from BC, Cathy and John, have invited Hannes and me to come out to visit them in Prince George. I am certain we will take them up on that offer. We have never been to. Northern BC. I am going to look at Air Miles for fall time.

We dined at the Mexican restaurant tonight...in the north tower (we are in the south). Both of us enjoyed the meal. I tried to order a glass of red wine but ended up with another Margarita...obviously I need to bone up on my Spanish! The waiter made some Spanish coffee for some patrons...flames and all. Managed to snap some pics. Will download them once I get home since I don't have a Flicker or similar account.




Making Spanish coffee is quite the spectacle:



Tomorrow is a big day as we are heading to the other side of the island for a kayak tour. We can expect to see lots of different birds and other flora/fauna. I am taking the whole day off swimming. I need the break as I have been going steady since January 5. We are also getting Saturday night off from swimming. Awesome!

Until tomorrow my blog readers!

I just cannot believe how fast this second week has gone! The heat and sun are agreeable to me!
