A Lovely Day for A Swim

Ever since I started winter swimming, I've been desperate to swim in the snow. Unfortunately, we don't get much of it in the South West, so I've had to wait quite a few years

I thought I was in luck when it snowed three weeks ago, but by the time I got to the beach, the flakes had stopped falling and, since none settled, I couldn't really call the subsequent dip 'a snow swim'.

However, today we had a blizzard. So rather than not enough snow, there was too much to even see the sea from the top of the beach. We waited, with a hot chocolate and a latté, for the snow to ease. Finally, I was able to get it safely. Claire (LLE-Photography) kindly took photos for me. Here's my favourite:
