gorgeous water

it's been so hot these last few days and i really wanted to go for a swim in the lake. i know how packed it gets so i hadn't been yet, but i decided that if i woke up early enough this morning, i'd go then and hope there wouldn't be too many people.

i got there just after 9.30 and there were already some people, but it was livable. i went straight into the water and it was gorgeous! perfect temperature to cool you down. after a bit of a swim, i had a lie down on one of the rafts, then back into the water again. once out, i realised how many people had arrived in the hour i'd been there, and it was getting way too noisy, so home i went. but i've decided i'm going to do this more in the coming weekends. i can always have a nap later in the day!
