More taken by the day!

And just in case the relevance of these photos to my swimming blog seems to have sunk into the sea, I post one blog per swim!

Come rain or shine

Am thinking of hanging an exhibition in the Bjørnsund leirskole café - feedback on favourites welcome!

South Bjørnsund

An even smaller island a stone's throw away

Baking & bathing

We are doing a roaring trade at the café, which means there's little time for fishing or swimming




but where there's a will...







Of fish, fowl and food

Brennmanet, or stinging jellyfish, my biggest nightmare and the reason I require an escort with oars!

St Harald of Assisi

Life is but a dream

Harald rowed alongside me during my second swim: a chance to play with reflections

Swimming with seal cubs

My first swim on Bjornsund was in the company of these playful pups, who were as excited about the cakes we are serving as they were about having a new swim mate.

Cold, even in a wet suit!
