On my drive over the bridge, I got to catch the sun rise over the east bay hills, making the bay truly shimmer. Upon arriving, my nerves was instantly calmed when the registrants recognized my HSB crew shirt and I found out that they were part of the stellar info booth crew. Once boarding the ferry, we had to wait a bit for a cargo ship to make it's way through, and got to talking to a few hilarious and wonderful people. Love these events if nothing more then for the great people.
But then of course, the swim! Started off a little rough with the wake of said cargo ship hitting us upon entry, but was able to get a rhythm going a little ways in. Did ride a few of those wave though! Sight lines were confusing to say the least and my course would be anything but direct, but having the underside of the golden gate bridge as my view wasn't half bad.
Great swim and am so happy my friend Martha convinced me to do it. Thanks!
