Well, how about that? An absolutely magical moonlit swim. Usually the clouds rain on our parade, but tonight it was cold and clear. It was very exciting arriving at our swimming spot, Oddicombe Beach in Torquay, as I could glimpse the glimmering whiteness of the moon beckoning me through the trees as I drove down the winding road. On arrival at the prom - well - there was a simply stunning moon casting an enormous white pool of light onto the sea, and lighting up the cliffs behind the beach, creating a silvery amphitheatre. As we stood on the shore we felt very cold, and I was dreading getting in. But the sea was a delicious, welcoming surprise. It was warm and I felt comforted and enveloped as we moved around in the soft, smooth water, as it gently lapped against the shingle.
