woke up at 4am to get dressed and fly to UK
SWIM:  maybe 60 minutes in 16 degree water

comments:  swam in a lake in Hyde Park in London, lake Serpentine.  I met Nick Adams, a 6 time channel swimmer.  He and I had breakfast at a gorgeous cafe called Lido next to the lake.

I had ok feel for the water and seemed to adapt quickly to the cold.

After our lunch, I took a train from South Kensington to Dover.  I came to Dover for a couple of days to swim and check out the English channel.
