High Winds-No Attempts

Still waiting, High winds today(Friday) and no swimmers crossing today. I will hear from my boat pilot this evening for an update. I'm glad I stuck with my plan of no taper until I reached Dover. It's been great fun meeting other marathon swimmers some of them are world record holders. I've been invited by a board member of British Long Distance Swim Club to swim Lake Windemere next year. Also, I was invited to go to Spain to swim the Strait of Gibraltar by member of their swim club. Dover is the swimming mecca. Swimmers from all over the world chat about their country and the great swims out there. It's absolutely fascinating.
Take care and I'll update you when I hear from my boat pilot.
