Hello everyone, this is Sally and Adi here..
At a recent SSBS gathering we mentioned to Justine about our secret little Harvest Moon dip and she loved our tale so much she asked us to put pen (or keyboard) to paper, so here goes!
We’d been planning an early evening, or even night time dip for a while now, particularly as we missed each other so much when Sally was away on holiday in Kos with her friends. So the second night she came back we said, 'Come on, let’s do it!'.
So off we set with our towels, swim shoes and Dry Robes. It was a very low tide on this full moon, with lots and lots of spaghetti seaweed floating about in the sea! There were a few people about as it was still light, so we waited for a bit until daylight turned to dusk and actually, at the time preceding our dip, we didn't actually realise it was a full moon! And not just any moon, but a Bright Harvest supermoon, which was really rather spectacular!
The time came for us to have a dip in the sea, so we took off our robes and walked hand in hand to embrace the water. Now, all I can say at this point, is that none of our swimming costumes got wet as we had left them at home!! Had we planned that? Well, who can say ;) And so, yes, we decided to go SKINNY DIPPING… !
This was the first time we had ever done something like this and we can say with certainty that it definitely won’t be the last - we're 100% sure of that!!! That spaghetti seaweed got wrapped around places and in crevasses I certainly cannot not mention here, but maybe next time a higher tide is needed!!
As we came out of the sea there were a few people on the sea taking photos of the beautiful orange glowing moon - let’s just hope that’s all their cameras saw!
Adi and Sally, SSBS members xx
