In keeping with this week’s theme of Fresh, it definitely is a “freshening” experience when learning how to waterski in the cold Atlantic Ocean, and wiping-out in the process (waterskier’s name is withheld to protect the innocent).

Fishermen trying to catch fish in the fresh breeze coming off the Altantic Ocean, but hey…when you have a fish to catch, let nothing stop you. Be not deceived by the sunlight in the photo – this was a “fresh” day on the beach in Swakopmund.

I have often wanted to swim at The Mole in Swakopmund. Each time I visit I am determined to swim in the tranquil waters of the little bay. But I chicken out every time  with thoughts of turning blue and numb in the cold Atlantic waters – I am an Indian Ocean swimming kind of person.

Now these creatures don’t worry about the “freshness” of the water – these seals are actually sunning themselves on the rocks at The Mole.
