French Dip, Nice Style

8:00 a.m.  the Mediterrean Sea.  Warm salty water. 
 
I thought we were doing something special.  Just us wandering down to the Sea for an early morning dip. 

No. 

Apparently, this is a daily event for many locals.  Early exercise, followed by a quick shower and dressing on the beach, then off to work or their day.

The water made us all so happy.  We look back on it as a highlight of our time in France. 

Try it!!  If you are so inclined, find a local swimming hole that makes you happy.  The YMCA or community pools offer times for everyone to enjoy the water.  Aqua exercises are a gentle way to move without stressing arthritic joints.

Heading to the beach.
Oh Kev, I missed you on this adventure.

1/2 hour of recreational floating and swimming burns about 150 calories.  But the best part about this exercise is the happiness you feel after.
