28 June- By Felix

Last Sunday, I attended my 8th training session.

First we swam to Middle Island beach from the pontoon in Repulse Bay. It felt like an eternity as I was not very motivated to swim in such dirty water. We were greeted by Aline, our French teacher. It was strange to see our teacher during the week-end and in a boat in the middle of the sea! But it was also cool to have her encouraging us.

At the beach, our coach Patrice told us there was a surprise from Lily. She had written personal letters in plastic-coated paper so that we can carry it in our buoy. She could be by our side during the big swim !

After we went swimming to the east side of Middle Island and then all the way back to Repulse Bay. At the end of our swim, Aline invited us on her boat for a nice ride. Thank you Aline, you are awesome and it was a great way to finish the training.
