Ocean Swimming

Some of my friends at our team swim practice asked me if I'd managed to do an ocean swim while I was in Maui.  Well I HAD planned to but...the short answer is no, and here is why.

These guys were coming in to see if they could score some free food from a fisherman who caught this.

God help me but I just couldn't manage to go out into the deep water after that.

    Horrifying! OHMY!

    That would cure me from wanting to go to Kona. Can you do Ironman in a swimming pool, I wonder?? ;)

    Love the new header shot. *sigh*

    C'mon Donna fess up, it wasn't anywhere near were we were swimming!!!! Far enough that I figured the sharks would chew on others before me or you for that matter.
    Umm...like those nice delicious young limbs of those kids in your pics, hehe!!!!
    Man they were freaky I gotta say

    Sometimes it's better not to know what your swimming with. The idea of swimming with sharks bothers me a whole lot less than swimming with slimy things lurking in a lake.
