[link] This says the warm water mass was 70-85F, but I don't know if that's actually measured. It was plenty warm enough to go swimming around at Pt Dume completely comfortably.

Thirteen miles. I once walked thirteen miles under the Spanish sun with a foot swollen like unto a club.

Learn from my example: always check the dimensions on your map of Madrid.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That's kinda creepy. But worth a shot.

eta: to lori, not to shrift. Totally not to shrift.

What can I say? I was young and poor, and fleeing the American government.

Madrid is 13miles across?

ita, here's [link] current ocean topography measurements. Topex was semi-retired and supplanted by Jason-1.

No El Nino in sight.

I have no concrete evidence that I actually walked thirteen miles, although the number sticks in my head like I'd done the math. I know is that I was totally on the opposite side of the city, and... it had to be Madrid. Yeah, because I had to go to Estación Sur. On the way to Barcelona, the bus showed Far From Home: The Adventures of Yellow Dog in Spanish.

Good times.

I was told to watch out for the south swells, and surf when they're up. So freaking complicated. I just want to get out on the board again, without whining like a baby, and preferably delay the purchase of a 3/4 or heavier wetsuit.

There's a 4/3 half off at Sierra Trading Post. [link] Only 2 sizes, though.

Scarily, Cindy, when I go out googling for my sites, it happens at least once that I see a pic and go "That's hot! I need that!" and click through to my own site. I'm a victim of my own flakiness and ... obsessiveness?

I think I'm a ten. The suits I tried on to buy the one I have now fit very differently, despite claiming to be the same size.
