Falasarna shipwreck swim with Irish family

Today we invited an Irish family who is staying in Ravdoucha for a few months to go to Falasarna together.

Vincent and Sheila have two daughters like us. Their oldest swam with us for a bit, then went back with Fiona to play with her sister and Giulia and Sofia.

I took Vincent and Sheila straight to the shipwreck. I got a bit chilly with the initial waiting around, so we didn’t hang around the shipwreck for very long. It was good to go on a long swim with some other company.

Total distance: 2.29 km
Average speed: 2.55 km/h

Falasarna swim with kids

After some days of bad weather, we went to Falasarna on a beautiful day.

We swam a good way with Fiona and Sofia, then I went for a quick swim to the shallow rock by myself.

The water is cooler now but still good, and very clear.
